q2 i? The experimental group taught with GITM achieved significantly higher mean post-test achievement scores than the control group taught with the conventional method, F(1,93) = 85.476, P = 0.000. → Ekomaye 2019 q2 i? Descriptively, the experimental group's mean gain (54.41) exceeded the control group's mean gain (40.76), a mean gain difference of 13.67 in favour of the experimental group. → Ekomaye 2019 (2)

Evidence¶

Ekomaye 2019¶

Ekomaye, D. G. (2019). Effect of Guided Inquiry Teaching Method on Secondary School Students’ Achievement in Light and Sound Waves in Abuja, Nigeria. Journal of Education and e-Learning Research, 6(2), 82-87. doi:10.20448/journal.509.2019.62.82.87

q2 · i? · causal · r2

ANCOVA of post-test LASWAT scores in a quasi-experiment with intact classes (experimental N = 48, control N = 47), covariate pre-test. The article reports "the calculated F -value of 85.476" with P = 0.000 < 0.05, so H01 was rejected; no effect size is printed.

"Table 3 indicates that there is a significant difference in the mean achievement scores of students in the experimental and control groups. This is based on the fact that the calculated F -value of 85.476 and with probability value of 0.000"

q2 · i? · causal · r2

Descriptive results in Table 2 from the quasi-experiment: experimental group post-test mean 74.88 (SD 10.465) versus control 61.92 (SD 12.392), with mean gains of 54.41 and 40.76 respectively; the article reports "a mean gain difference of 13.67 between the two groups in favour of the experimental group".

"However at post -test, the experimental group had a mean score of 74.88 with a mean gain of 54.41 while the control group had a mean score of 61.92 with a mean gain of 40.76."
