Seen, Not Sure

A School Messaging App's Read Receipt Against What Guardians Actually Recall

A research poster from the School of Continuous Improvement cross-references a primary-school messaging app's "seen by" receipt against a follow-up comprehension check for 618 guardian-notice pairs across nine schools. The seen-receipt rate holds in a tight 88-97% band across notice types; the comprehension rate ranges from 38% to 81% and tracks the receipt only weakly, indicating the tick records that a screen was tapped rather than that anything on it was understood.
