Subclaims¶

q2 i? The experimental group showed a significant difference between pre-test and post-test achievement mean scores in English grammar after discovery learning instruction. → Singaravelu 2012 q2 i? The control group showed a significant difference between its post-test and its second post-test after receiving the discovery learning treatment. → Singaravelu 2012 (2)

Evidence¶

Singaravelu 2012¶

Singaravelu, G. (2012). Discovery Learning Strategies in English. i-manager's Journal of English Language Teaching, Vol. 2 No. 1, January - March 2012. https://eric.ed.gov/?id=EJ1070208

q2 · i? · causal · r1

Rotational group experimental study with 30 experimental-group pupils of standard V; pre-test mean 57.43 (S.D. 5.07) and post-test mean 86.76 (S.D. 6.72), with the calculated 't' value (19.08) greater than table value (2.00).

"In Table 2, the calculated 't' value is (19.08) greater than table value (2.00). Hence null hypothesis is rejected at 0.05 levels."

q2 · i? · causal · r1

Comparison of the control group's post-test (mean 57.43, S.D. 5.07) with its second post-test after the discovery learning treatment (mean 79.86, S.D. 5.87), with 30 pupils per stage and 't' value (15.83).

"In Table 3, the calculated 't' value is (15.83) greater than table value (2.00). Hence null hypothesis is rejected at 0.05 levels."
