EFFECTIVENESS OF CO-OPERATIVE LEARNING METHOD IN LEARNING OF MATHEMATICS AMON...Thiyagu K
Co-operative learning is defined as students working together to “attain groups goals that cannot be obtained by working alone or competitively”. The main purpose of co-operative learning is to actively involve students in the learning process, a level of student empowerment which is not possible in a lecture format. The present study found out the effectiveness of co-operative learning in mathematics learning among the eighth standard students of Tirunelveli district. Two equivalent group experimental-designs are employed for this study. The investigator has selected 40 students studying VIII standard in High School, Tirunelveli Educational District. According to the scoring of pre-test, 20 students were chosen as control group and 20 students were chosen as experimental group in a cluster sampling techniques. Finally the investigator concludes that; (a) There was significant difference between control and experimental group students in their gain scores. That is the experimental group student is better than control group students in their gain scores. (b)There was significant difference between control and experimental group students in their gain scores for attainment of the knowledge, understanding, and application objectives.

Methodology Assignment
Participant/Procedures
The intended participants will include both parents and students. The parents of undergraduate students from a mid-sized university will be included in the study. The parents will consist of both fathers and mothers of students. Parents with students in elementary, junior, and high school levels will be excluded from the study. Undergraduate students who are enrolled in communication studies from a mid-sized university will also be considered as participants for the study. The students will consist of freshmen, sophomores, juniors, and seniors.
The personal demographic questions that the survey will ask the parents include education status, ethnicity, and the level of study of their children as well as their performance record in school. These questions matter because they will enable the research to deduce useful information about the individual parents and their involvement in the education of their children. For instance, the question on their level of education will assess their understanding of the purpose of the study as well as the role of parents in supporting the education initiatives of students. The question on ethnicity will enable the research to determine whether parental involvement or support to children depends on ethnicity. The students will be asked demographic questions such as their age, gender, and level of study. The specific demographic questions for the students will assist in validating the measurement scale. For instance, the level of study will determine the extent of parental support that is needed further validating the measurement scales. The question on gender will expose the difference in perception among male and female students regarding parental support and student satisfaction.
Random sampling will be utilized to collect data. It involves sampling where every object has an equal chance of appearing in the study. This method will be utilized because it produces an unbiased representation of the population which will help in drawing useful conclusions about the study. It will also be utilized due to its simplicity as compared to other sampling techniques. This sampling method will significantly influence the outcomes of the results since it will ensure a higher degree of accuracy and validity.The study will adopt a cross-sectional survey design which will ensure that the researcher examines different samples of a population at a given point in time. It will allow the comparison of results/answers from different samples at one point in time. I will also utilize this survey design because it is generally short and inexpensive. They will also enable me to discover new correlations for the study that can be studied later.
I intend to send the surveys to 300 parents and undergraduate students from a mid-sized university. To increase their response rates, I will provide incentives and I will also keep the survey relevant. Studies show that sometimes when co ...
Effects of 5E learning Cycle Model on Achievement in Social Science of Std 8ijtsrd
Education is the most potent instrument of individual development, social transformation and means of national development. It helps to individual to acquire knowledge, skills and attitudes, which enable them to develop their faculties in full and thereby improve the quality of life for themselves, their communities and the nation as a whole. The objective of the study is to find the effect of 5 E learning cycle model on Achievement in Social Science in Std. 8 . The lesson transcript for teaching selected content based on 5E learning cycle model developed by Rodger Bybee of ‘The Biological Science Curriculum Study is planned for study. The sample of the study has been selected in two stages. Purposive sampling technique was adopted for selecting the schools from Surat city, than two sections of eighth standard in both the schools lottery method was used to select the classes for the experiment. The section consisted of 60 students. Randomized pretest posttest match design was adopted as the research design for the study The mean, standard deviation, ‘t test and ANOVA are the statistical technique used. It is concluded that it is significant difference on Achievement score of Experimental and control group and 5E learning cycle model is more effective in enhancing Achievement in Social Science when compared to Traditional Method.

A Study to Evaluate the Effectiveness of Motivational Intervention on Anxiety...iosrjce
The objective of the study was to assess the mental To assess and compare the level anxiety of
unsuccessful B.Sc (N) students in university examination before and after the administration of motivational
intervention and to determine the association of level of anxiety with the selected personal variables.31
unsuccessful B.Sc(N)student were selected through purposive sampling technique. In view of the nature of the
problem and to accomplish the objectives of the study, structured Beck Anxiety Inventory was used to assess the
Anxiety level of the students. Validity was ensured in the field of Nursing and medical departments. Reliability of
the tools was tested by Cranach’s alpha, which was 0.92 Both descriptive and inferential statistics were used.
The findings of this study indicated that Motivational Intervention is effective in reducing Anxiety (t
value=3.027, p value = <0.05) among unsuccessful B.Sc (N) students. There was no significant association of
Anxiety with the selected sample characteristics after motivational intervention but before motivational
intervention it was significantly associated with age in year, passed higher secondary in how many attempts and
hobbies. The finding suggests that motivational intervention was effective in reducing level of Anxiety of
unsuccessful B.Sc (N) students.

1. Results:
Randomized repeated measures ANOVAs
were conducted on Grades, Math Grades,
Academic Self-Efficacy, and Affective School
Engagement; however these test failed to
reject the null hypothesis. Academic Self-
Efficacy was targeted for for change in both
the MI and SBM intervention and approached
significance F(3,85)=2.56, p=0.06. Grades
were the main outcome variable of interest
(quarter one and quarter three report card
grades for core classes), but were also found
to be non significant F (3, 88) = 1.68,
p=0.177. Significant increases in Math
Grades were found in the two previous
studies, yet were not obtained in this study F
(2, 88) = 2.40, p=0.07. Affective Engagement
demonstrated increases in each intervention,
however was not sound to be statistically
significant F(3,83) = 1.86, p=0.143. Due to
low statistical power and increased risk of
Type II error Cohen’s d effect sized were
calculated from gain score (i.e. post test
minus pretest). Comparisons for each
intervention versus waitlist control indicates
small to medium effects on several outcome
variables (see Table 2).
Discussion: Due to delay in data collection,
preliminary study findings are presented. For
this presentation we focused the on
interpretation of effect sizes. These suggest
that both interventions produced greater
effects than the waitlist control over the
course of about 8 weeks (i.e., a school
quarter) on several variables of interest.
Considering that .2 is regarded as a small
effect size in education research especially
for an intervention lasting 45 minutes session
(i.e. MI) or 8 week intervention (i.e. SBM)
these results suggest that further
investigation of MI and SBM is warranted.
Motivational Interviewing and School-based Mentoring with Middle School
Students

Introduction:
The development of effective and feasible
interventions that are deliverable in schools is highly
desirable. In order to address this aim, two previous
studies examined a School-based Mentoring (SBM)
program and a brief report card coaching program
based on Motivational Interviewing (MI). These
randomized evaluations found positive yet mixed
effects on academic performance (McQuillin et al.;
Strait et al.). To gain better understanding of these
school-based interventions, replication was
undertaken. Since each study was conducted
separately, it is not clear from the previous research
how the effect sizes of these interventions compare,
or if there is any advantage of combining the
interventions. Novel and important questions about
the independent and combined efficacy of mentoring
and MI on middle school students’ academic
performance, behavior, engagement with school,
and academic self-efficacy will be better understood.
Methods:
Sample:. To address these research questions, a
study of the separate and joint effects of the
mentoring and MI interventions is presented.
Utilizing a randomized 2 X 2 design, 97 middle
school students were randomly assigned to one of
four conditions: mentoring only, MI only, mentoring
plus MI, and a waitlist control group (see Table 1).
To implement this study, 42 undergraduate students
from a southeastern university are providing up to
seven 45 minute long mentoring sessions. For the
MI-based report card coaching program, seven
graduate students and research specialist report
card coaches provided one 45 minute long
motivational interviewing session.
Measure: Data on student grades, attendance,
and discipline referrals were obtained from the
school for the first and second quarter. All
participants in the study were asked to answer
questionnaires about self-report academic behavior,
school engagement, and academic self-efficacy.
