MD03 – EDUCATIONAL STATISTICS WITH SOFTWARE APPLICATION
Based from the test results
1. The null hypothesis “There is no significant difference on the level of
performance of the students in Science using Blended Learning Strategy on the
pre-test and post-test.”, is REJECTED, this is supported by the t Stat =
-12.489996 which is greater than t critical t Critical one-tail=1.833112933 and t
Critical two-tail = 2.262157163. The absolute value of t stat > t critical, negative
t stat depicting inverse correlation, which signifies tat those who got less in the
pre-test got higher in the pos-test.
2. As based from the results and rejecting the null hypothesis, it is now stated as
 “There is significant difference on the level of performance of the
students in Science using Blended Learning Strategy on the pre-test
and post-test”
It can be inferred that strategy is effective. As all of the scores of the
respondents increased mean in the pre-test is 3.2 which has increased to a mean
of 8.4 in the pos-test.

3. As the data results depict performance in the Subject Science, it is recommended

that the effectiveness of Blended Learning must be tested in other subject areas
and different Grade levels.

4. (2) A significant level of 0.01 means that the null hypothesis is tested to be
significant at 99% confidence. But in reality, a 99% confidence interval is not
attainable, therefore it is safer to use 0.05 significance level or a more
acceptable 95%.

5. (3) Results of statistically tools are not absolutely correct but can be treated to
be correct at certain levels, allowing certain error percentages at most 5%.

6. (4) A null hypothesis is a type of hypothesis used in statistics that proposes that
there is no difference between certain characteristics of a population (or data-
generating process). This is used by researchers mostly to have an objective of
proving that there is significant relationship.

When a p-value is less than or set alpha, the null hypothesis is

ACCEPTED, Alternative hypothesis is REJECTED. A p-value less than or less
than the set alpha (say 0.05) depicts that 95% of the data lies within the normal
bell shaped curved.

7. (5) Example of Research question and hypothesis.

Problem:
Is there a significant difference along the financial practices of the teachers when
grouped according to their profile?
Null Hypothesis
“There is no significant difference along the financial practices of the teachers
when grouped according to their profile”.
