The ledger
The archive’s open books, at both grains: every decision a school builder faces — the 0 we haven’t answered left visibly empty — and every paper read, including the 129 read and not used. Most evidence reviews show you only what survived, which makes a thorough search indistinguishable from a lucky one.
The decisions · 54 of 54 answered
An empty cell means not yet read — not “no evidence exists,” and not “nothing works.” We would rather show you the hole than quietly crop it out of frame. The plan lives in TAXONOMY.md; the build fails if this page and the database disagree.
Subjects — how to teach each
Methods — how humans learn (apply across every subject)
Structure — how to organize the school
Early childhood — before and around school entry
Don't-bother — debunked / fad methods
Inputs — non-academic factors that move outcomes
Assessment & intake — reading what a test actually says
Homeschooling — the delivery context
Subject topics still to build
The papers · all 1171
How closely these were read
363 of 1171 were graded from the full paper. An effect size taken from an abstract carries no attrition, no moderator table and no limitations section behind it — so abstract-only is debt, not a neutral state, and it is shown rather than smoothed over. 308 sources standing behind a live verdict were graded without the full paper.
Checking status
271 of 1171 have had their extracted numbers re-checked against the paper by a second, adversarial pass. The rest are marked unchecked below — they are not wrong, they are unaudited, and the difference matters enough to show.

design too weak to inform — By SRI's own statement this was an implementation study, not an impact evaluation - no fixed treatment, no comparison group, volunteer sites, and a product that changed during the study. Kept fully on record because the honest answer for the world's most-deployed instructional software is "the evaluation cannot answer the question," and because the +0.61 / +1.03 cohort comparison inside it is widely miscited as a Khan Academy effect size.

design too weak to inform — Exclusion rationale REVISED after full-text read. The original note said allocation was not established as randomized; that was wrong - the paper documents pair-matched random allocation of the schools. The remaining grounds still support exclusion: only 8 clusters were randomized and the analysis ignores clustering entirely (plain t-tests and chi-square on 3,051 individuals), the arms are imbalanced on parental myopia, parental education and income, the sole cycloplegic refraction outcome comes from a 12.8% subsample resting on 23 incident cases, and the end-of-study refractive error did not differ between arms. That is too fragile to carry weight alongside the Guangzhou, Shanghai and Cochrane-pooled randomized evidence, though it is now correctly classified as a weak cluster-randomized trial rather than an undocumented quasi-experiment - worth revisiting if the topic ever needs a fourth confirmatory trial.

outside ages 4–18 education — University undergraduates, not school-age children (this archive covers ages 4-18), and the treatment is get-out-the-vote messaging rather than schooling.

adds nothing beyond what we hold — Its 17-study pool overlaps Alvarez-Bueno et al. 2017 and Vasilopoulos et al. 2023 without adding bias correction, and it reports I2 up to 74% with no publication-bias adjustment, so it contributes no independent information to the verdict.

design too weak to inform — Four-fifths of the included studies are non-randomized, no effects are pooled, no study was rated cleanly low risk of bias, and formal GRADE was declined - so the review adds no causal information beyond the five randomized studies already reachable directly. Its 0.1 SD figure is retained only as a corroborating cross-check, not as evidence. Retained also because it surfaces two causal nulls (the Bruce UK cluster trial and the Jiang mendelian randomization) that any topic citing the positive spectacle-provision literature needs to see.
