Question 1
An educational analyst studies the performance of students. The performances of the students will
measure based on their score they achieved in their final exams. The past record shows that the
scores of the students are approximately normally distributed. Following sample data is taken from
the population. Develop a 95% confidence interval for the average score of all the students in the
population.

74 70 81 72 73 68 69 79 78 77

Calculate the following (Show all working and formulae properly)

a. Point Estimator b. Standard deviation c. Standard Error of Mean

d. tabulated value of t statistic e. Estimating Error

f. Lower limit of 95% CI g. Upper limit of 95% CI

 After showing all working make and complete the following table.

b Standard deviation 4.1406
c Standard Error of Mean 0.9258
d tabulated value of t statistic 2.093
e Estimating Error 1.937
f Lower limit of 95% CI 71.813
g Upper limit of 95% CI 75.687
Question 2
An educational analyst studies the performance of students. The performances of the students will
measure based on their score they achieved in their final exams. The past record shows that the
scores of the students are approximately normally distributed. If analyst claims that the average
score of the students is 70. Test the claim of the analyst at 0.05 lever of significance by using data of
question 1 (given above).

Answer the following questions with neat and clean working and calculation where necessary.

a. Write the null and alternative hypothesis for the testing the above claim
b. What will be the calculated value of test statistics?
c. What will be the tabulated value of test statistics?
d. Write your conclusion about the claim of the analyst in the light of your calculation.

a Null Hypothesis Average score =70

Alternative Hypothesis Average score≠70

B Calculated value of test statistic 4.05

C Tabulated value of test statistic 1.729
D Conclusion Test is significant and reject the hypothesis that
‘’the average score of student is 70’’

Question 3
After the current pandemic educationist compare the performance of the students. Comparison of
performance based upon teaching methodology i.e., face to face and online teaching. The sample
data of score of the two groups of the students is taken randomly. Assume that the population is
normally distributed with equal variances.

You are required to perform the analysis for testing the assumption that there is no difference
between the two-teaching methodology at 0.05 level of significance and give your comments.

F2F-Score 65 68 82 67 68 75 75 64 79 72

Calculate the following (Show all working and formulae properly)

a. Means of both data set b. Variances of both data set

c. Point Estimator d. Pool Standard Deviation

e. Standard Error Difference f. Calculated value of test statistic

g. degree of freedom. H. tabulated value of test statistic
a Null Hypothesis There is no difference between two teaching
methodologies(µ= μo) or average online score
=average face to face score
Alternative Hypothesis There is difference between two teaching
methodologies(µ≠ μo) or average online score
≠average face to face score
b Means of both data set X1=80,X2=70.6
c Variances of both data set 2 2
S1 =11.115, S2 =31.505
d Point Estimator 9.4
e Pool Standard Deviation 4.4615
f Standard Error Difference 1.3269
g Calculated value of test statistic 7.08
h Degree of Freedom 44
i Calculated value of test statistic 1.68
j Conclusion Test is significant and reject the hypothesis that
‘’there is no difference between two teaching
methodologies’’
