1. This school year, synchronous online discussions are hold at least once a week and
students need to accomplish the required modular activities on asynchronous class. This
teaching and learning setup is something new particularly among students. A survey was
conducted among students, and they were asked how they perceived the new teaching-
learning setup? At a .05 level of significance, is there significance difference on male and
female students’ perceptions of the new teaching-learning setup? The survey results are
shown on the table below.

TOTAL 60 60 120
Null Hypothesis: There is no significant difference on male and female students’ perceptions of the new
teaching-learning setup.
Alternative Hypothesis: There is a significant difference on male and female students’ perceptions of the
new teaching-learning setup.
Normal Curve:
5.99
Decision Rule: Reject the null hypothesis if X2 > 5.99; otherwise, do not reject the null hypothesis.

Conclusion:
Reject null hypothesis, 8.8572 > 5.99, which means that there is a significant difference on male
and female students’ perceptions of the new teaching-learning setup.
Recommendation:
According to the statistics, most male students find the new teaching setup to be interesting and
at the same time frustrating. On the other hand, most female students feel that having such a
setup is challenging. Based on the data, we can conclude that students' perceptions differ for a
variety of reasons. I propose that the administration further question the students about their
experiences with the specified setup and the causes for such differences in perception in order to
reach a conclusion and suggest solutions for the setup. The administration can also make new
teaching set up that will help the students to learn effectively. They can make programs that will
contribute to the eagerness of the students to learn even on a new set up.
2. A survey conducted by a private school to determine parents’ and teachers’ confidence
that the school will meet the standards set by the No Child Left Behind program. The result
of the survey is shown on the table below. At a 0.01 level of significance, is there significant
difference between parents’ and teachers’ confidence that the school will meet the
standards set by the program?
Null Hypothesis: There is no significant difference between parents’ and teachers’ confidence that the
school will meet the standards set by the program.
Alternative Hypothesis: There is no significant difference between parents’ and teachers’ confidence
that the school will meet the standards set by the program.
Normal Curve:
6.63
Decision Rule: Reject null hypothesis if X2 > 6.63; otherwise, do not reject the null hypothesis.
