Subclaims¶
Reading the evidence codes
q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r
the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.
This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.
q3 i3 There was a significant interaction between group type (experimental vs control) and time period on mathematics understanding, with partial eta squared = 0.28. → Veloo 2016
q3 i3 The main effect of group on mathematics understanding was significant, F(1,62)=11.24, partial eta squared = 0.15, favouring the TGT group. → Veloo 2016 (2)
q3 i? At post-test 1 the experimental group's mathematics understanding score (14.53) was higher than the control group's (11.09). → Veloo 2016 (3)
Evidence¶
Veloo 2016¶
Veloo, A., Md-Ali, R., & Chairany, S. (2016). Using Cooperative Teams-Game-Tournament in 11 Religious School to Improve Mathematics Understanding and Communication. Malaysian Journal of Learning and Instruction, 13(2), 97-123. https://eric.ed.gov/?id=EJ1134733
q3 · i3 · causal · r2
Mixed between-within subjects ANOVA in a randomized pretest-posttest control group study of 64 Grade 11 students (32 experimental, 32 control) at Madrasah Aliyah, Riau. The article reports "significant interaction between group type and time periods" with Wilks Lambda = .72, F(2,61) = 11.80, p < .05, partial eta squared = 0.28.
"There was significant interaction between group type and time periods, Wilks Lambda = .72, F (2, 61) = 11.80, p < .05, partial eta squared ( λ) = 0.28)."

q3 · i3 · causal · r2
Between-subject effect test from the same mixed ANOVA on mathematics understanding across the three time periods. The article reports the group main effect as significant with F(1,62) = 11.24, p < .05, partial eta squared = 0.15, described as a big effect size per Cohen (1988).
"The main effect for experimental group and control group was significant, F (1, 62) = 11.24, p < .05, partial eta squared (λ) = 0.15), suggesting a difference in the effectiveness of the cooperative TGT on mathematics understanding."

q3 · i? · causal · r1
Descriptive means from Table 3 for the post-test 1 mathematics understanding scores: experimental group M = 14.53 (SD = 2.03) versus control group M = 11.09 (SD = 1.91), a printed difference of 3.44 attributed by the authors to the TGT effect.
"Figure 2 shows that the post 1 mathematics understanding score for the experimental group (14.53) is higher than the control group (11.09)."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Mathematics understanding and communication gains from Cooperative TGT were not sustained after the intervention was withdrawn — related
- Cooperative TGT significantly improves Grade 11 students' mathematics communication compared with conventional teaching — related
- Grade VIII students taught mathematics with the TGT web-based game technique showed a significant pretest-to-posttest achievement gain over three weeks — related
- Students in Cooperative TGT classrooms learned to socialise while learning mathematics and became more active learners — related
- The TGT experimental group significantly outperformed the lecture-based control group on the mathematics posttest — possibly the same claim (merge candidate)
- Structured and ill-structured mCSCL teaching methods show similar effects; competitive methods (TGT, STAD) were not significant — related
- Science-classroom studies of cooperative learning show mixed results, with several null or negative comparisons — related
- Group learning produced significantly higher mathematics achievement than conventional teaching among rural grade-nine students after a 15-week intervention — related
