Subclaims¶

q2 i? Awareness of science education differed significantly (experimental 3.66 vs control 2.66). → Kang and Noh 2017 q2 i? Awareness of the science-technology-society interrelationship showed no significant group difference (p = 0.17). → Kang and Noh 2017 (2)

Evidence¶

Kang and Noh 2017¶

q2 · i? · causal · r1

Posttest comparison of the awareness-of-science subelements in the two-class quasi-experiment; the awareness of science education subelement favored the experimental group with a "significant difference". Awareness of science (3.72 vs 3.12) and of science-related jobs (3.77 vs 3.22) were also significant.

"In the case of the awareness of science education, 2.66 po ints for controlled group and 3.66 point for experiment group showed significant difference."

Table 4 row for the science-technology-society interrelationship subelement: experimental 3.42 (0.74) vs control 3.20 (0.51), t = -1.38, p = 0.17 — no statistically significant difference; equivalence was not tested.

"Awareness of the Science- Technology- Society Interrelationship 3.42(0.74) 3.20(0.51) -1.38 0.17"

Discussion¶

Related Claims¶

• Pre-inquiry lessons raised interest in science and its subelements, with no significant difference in science and anxiety — related
• The pre-inquiry class produced higher overall science-related affective domain scores than the control class — a broader claim this one bears on
