CHAPTER IV
The method of research used in this research is mixed method and thus there is a
diverse range of research questions under investigation. It means that a single method of
analysis is not suitable for addressing and resolving all the issues raised. Therefore, it is
of primary importance to undertake an appraisal of the different data analysis methods
and identify those procedures that are appropriate for testing and analyzing the
propositions forwarded in this study. The purpose of this chapter is to do just that. There
are two types of data which has been collected, quantitative data and qualitative data.
The analysis of the quantitative data was done by the researcher using both
descriptive and inferential statistics.
• Mean – The arithmetic mean (M) is the sum of separate scores or measures
divided by their number. In the present research it has been used for analyzing the
data because it is the most accurate measure of central tendency. It is an average
which represents all the scores of the group and thus provides a very concise
description about the performance of the group. It enables us to compare the
performance of the teacher trainees in the experimental group taught by the ICT
based model of curriculum transaction and the teacher trainees in the control
group taught by using the traditional method.
• Standard Deviation – The standard deviation was also calculated to facilitate
further statistical calculation of the t value.
• t - Test –It is also important to determine whether the difference between the
means of the two groups is significant. The test of the significance of the
difference between two means is known as t – test.
• In the present research t – test was used to determine the significance of the
difference between the performance and feedback of the teacher trainees in the
experimental group taught by the teacher educator using the ICT based model of
curriculum transaction and the teacher trainees in the control group taught by the
teacher educator using the traditional method.
