Table 1 reports pre-test and post-test means for 240 experimental and 240 control students. The experimental group improved from 47.77 to 66.57 while the control group improved from 46.33 to 61.47.

"The table also shows that the mean gain difference was 18.82 for demonstration method and 15.14 in conventional lecture method. This implies that subject taught with demonstration method performed better in the achievement test than those taught with conventional lecture method."

Discussion¶

Related Claims¶

• Students taught agricultural science with the demonstration method achieved significantly higher post-test scores than students taught with the conventional lecture method — possibly the same claim (merge candidate)
• Descriptive post-test means show the demonstration group (M = 58.57) scored higher than the control group (M = 48.13) — related
• Male students scored higher than female students on the agricultural science achievement test under both teaching methods — related
