Evidence¶

Pale 2016¶

Joseph W. Pale. (2016). Teacher and Student Based Instructions on Probability Achievement Outcomes and Attitudes of Secondary School Students in Bungoma North, Kenya. Journal of Education and Practice, Vol.7, No.24. https://eric.ed.gov/?id=EJ1112852

q2 · i? · causal · r2

Analysis of a 20-item probability attitude survey (10 positive, 10 negative Likert items, Cronbach's alpha 0.81) administered to both groups after six weeks of two-hour instruction sessions. Sample items show e.g. "Probability is interesting" mean 4.26 (student based) vs 2.0 (teacher based).

"From table 3, it was found out that the percentage of students who agreed with the negative items from “student based” learning method was much smaller as compared to the percentage of those who agreed with the same items from the “teacher based” method."
