q3 i? Experimental female students scored significantly higher than conventional female students (47.95 vs 35.37). → Hossain 2012

Evidence¶

Hossain 2012¶

Hossain, M.A., & Tarmizi, R.A. (2012). Gender-related effects of group learning on mathematics achievement among the rural secondary students. Egitim Arastirmalari-Eurasian Journal of Educational Research, 47, 1-22. https://eric.ed.gov/?id=EJ1057355

q3 · i? · causal · r2

Independent-sample t-test comparing female students across conditions (44 experimental, 41 control); pre-test means were equivalent (25.22 vs 26.46, not significant). The article reports the post-test difference favored "the female students in experimental group."

"the experimental female students scored a mean of 47.95 (SD = 2.36) which is higher than the conventional female students with post -test mean score of 35.37 (SD = 1.64). The difference between these two post -test means was significant [t (76.71) = 28.68, p < 0.05] in favor of the female students in experimental group"

Discussion¶

Learner Variables¶

• Gender — moderator: an instructional effect differs by group
