Subclaims¶

q3 i? Grade 12 students taught with a multimedia biology tool scored significantly higher on a post-test of nervous-system content than students taught with teacher-centred instruction. → Koseoglu 2015 q3 i? Pre-test biology achievement scores did not differ significantly between the multimedia and teacher-centred groups, supporting comparable baseline readiness. → Koseoglu 2015 (2)

Evidence¶

Koseoglu 2015¶

Koseoglu, P., & Efendioglu, A. (2015). Can a Multimedia Tool Help Students' Learning Performance in Complex Biology Subjects? South African Journal of Education, 35(4). https://doi.org/10.15700/saje.v35n4a1169

q3 · i? · causal · r2

ANCOVA on post-test scores of 48 Grade 12 students (Mbio n = 26, TCbio n = 22) after a five-week intervention on the nervous system. The article reports a significant group effect, "F (1-45) = 17.071; p < 0.001", favouring the multimedia group. No standardised effect size is printed for this contrast.

"According to Table 2, it is determined that there is a significant difference between the post-BA scores of the students in the Mbio and TCbio groups [ F (1-45) = 17.071; p < 0.001]."

q3 · i? · causal · r2

Independent-samples t-test on pre-test scores confirmed baseline equivalence between the multimedia (n = 26) and teacher-centred (n = 22) groups: "t (46) = 1.294, p > 0.05". No effect size is printed for this null result.

"According to Table 1, it is determined that there is no significant difference between the students in the Mbio and TCbio groups in terms of their pre-BA test scores [ t (46) = 1.294, p > 0.05]."
