Data Analysis Processing And Analysis

After performing the test, a chi square value of 126.58 was determined. With a degrees of freedom value of 4, this constituted a p value of 2.101644 x 10-26. With an alpha level of .01, the null hypothesis was rejected.

Data cleansing is an issue with very critical importance in data mining. It helps in preserving the quality of data used for data mining. An important sub task of data cleansing is duplicate detection. Duplication occurs when some real world object has multiple representations in data source. A lots of work has been done in duplicate detection in structured data such as relational database. But it is just a recently that the focus has been given on duplicate detection in hierarchical and semi structured data such as XML. In this paper we provide an overview of different approaches used for duplicate detection in XML.

The methods used to obtain these results were: From this text of the article I conclude that the

The statistical descriptive strategy will be correlation, which is defined as “two different variables are observed to determine whether there is a relationship between them” (Gravetter & Wallnau, p. 11, 2009). The descriptive statistic will be presented as percentages, mode and mean. The inferential data will be conducted using a chi-square test for independence. According to Gravetter and Wallnau’s definition of the Chi-square test for independence states that it “uses the frequency data from a sample to evaluate the relationship between variables in the population” (2009, p.

Kola and Sunday (2015) reviewed the controversy surrounding the qualification of teachers and its impact on students’ academic achievement. They used the following indicators to measure teachers’ qualification: formal education, experience, subject matter knowledge, pedagogy studies, duration of training, certificate/licensing and professional development. Even though their review of different opinions on the relationship between these indicators and students’ academic achievement portrays a lack of consensus among authors, there is agreement that subject matter knowledge, pedagogy studies, professional development and years of experience are fundamental and positively correlated with students’ academic achievement. Another important

A signed consent document request from the students’ parents or guardian will be issued prior to conducting the study. The study will consist of 30 male and female students with a sum total of 60 participants at the elementary level. Elementary level participants will be assigned a reading pre-assessment test prior to the study to evaluate current literacy levels. Participants who have a higher score than the fourth grade reading level requirements will be substituted for study by another randomly selected participant. Researchers will need access to at least two classrooms to conduct the study. All 60 participants will be randomly selected and divided into two groups. Group A will serve as the experimental group comprising of 15 random male selected students and 15 random female selected students using the new reading program. Group B will serve as the control group comprising of 15 random male selected students and 15 random female selected students that will be using the elementary school’s current reading program. The independent variable will be the amount of time spent studying under the new reading program. For example, two months of study under the new reading program. The dependent variable will be the test results at the end of the study; in this case, at the end of the two month period. At the end of

A correlation exists between reading proficiency scores and a teacher’s years of experience of national board certified, advanced degree and teachers with only a bachelor’s degree with the random effect of “school.

Hypothesis changes the relationship among the dependent and independent variable and provides an answer for the research question (LoBiondo-Wood et al., 2013. p. 75). Inter-relationship is found among research question, hypothesis, theoretical framework, and the literature review (LoBiondo-Wood et al., 2013. p. 60).

In the Smith, et al (2006) study, 26 patients were used. They all had COPD that was stable, and they all complained of coughing. Their age, mean FEV, and smoking history were all accounted and controlled for (Smith, et al, 2006). Methods used involved a cough challenge test, sound recordings of their cough day and night, and a questionnaire that involved their perceived quality of life (Smith, et al, 2006). The coughs were actually manually counted and then translated to coughs per hour. The cough seconds per hour was quantified based on the number of seconds in each recorded hour that contained a cough. The overall median time that was spent coughing was calculated to be 7.5 cough seconds for every hour, although this lessened considerably at night (Smith, et al, 2006). The subjective cough scores were taken into account and compared with the actual cough seconds per hour. It was found that the study participants often thought that they spent more time coughing than what the data indicated to b accurate (Smith, et al, 2006).

In order to measure student competency evaluations are given. These evaluations formally known as standardized tests are not only used to measure students’ “wit” they are also used to give an indication of the educators’ performace.Standardized tests are the main focus for many educators in state-funded public schools. Criterion-Referenced Competency Tests, End of Course Tests, Graduation Tests, Milestones and state writing tests seem to all have one thing in common; they are used to determine the amount of money schools will receive. Education is yet another pawn in the political revenue game. The “success rate” of the schools determine the amount of funds that they receive from the government, meaning that if a school does not meet qualifications then their

Being convinced in the influence of such variables on achievement, the present researcher has chosen four variables to be the core of his research study. In fact, he will investigate the contribution of these independent variables to the defendant variables, which is students achievement in English.
