q2 i? Achievement and gain at the low school level under RME (59.36 and 0.45) exceeded those at the medium school level under conventional education (52.69 and 0.39). → Palinussa 2013

Cross-level comparison in the Findings section of the quasi-experiment: the article concludes that "RME culture-based provide a better role than the role of schools" on achievement and enhancement of critical thinking skills. Medium school level also outperformed low school level within each learning group.

"it was found achievement and enhancement students' critical thinking skills mathematics at the low school level who have been using RME (59.36 and 0.45) is better than the achievement and enhancement students' critical thinking skills mathematics at the medium school level who have be en using Conventional Mathematics Education (52.69 and 0. 39)"
