q2 i? The experimental group's post-test mean (M=45.65; SD=12.86) was significantly different from the control group's post-test mean (M=10.37; SD=7.49), with the experimental group higher. → Ugodulunwa 2015

q2 · i? · causal · r1

Independent-samples t-test comparing post-test Geography Achievement Test scores of 49 portfolio-taught students with 52 discussion-method students after 12 weeks. The article reports "t (99) = 12.32, p < 0.05"; no effect size is printed.

"The mean score of experimental group on the posttest (M=45.65; SD=12.86) was significantly different from the posttest mean score of the control group (M=10.37; SD= 7.49); t (99) = 12.32, p < 0.05."
