Effects of Tape-Recorded Aural Models on Sight-Reading and Performance Skills

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of using tape-recorded aural models for home practice on selected sight-reading and performance skills of sixth-grade clarinet students. The experimental design was a pretest-posttest control-group design with an additional posttest measure. It was predicted that students in the experimental group would do significantly better than students in the control group with regard to pitch reading, rhythm reading, tempo accuracy, and intonation accuracy as measured by the sight-reading and performance tests. It was also projected that students in the experimental group would complete more music exercises during the study than students in the control group. The statistical analysis indicated no significant difference between the experimental and control groups with regard to either the skills measured or the number of music exercises completed during the study. These results appear to indicate that tape-recorded aural models used in this study had no observed effect on the selected music skills.

The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of the "patience training program" on the patience and life satisfaction levels of university students. The study was organized as a pre-test, post-test experiment and control group design. For a total of 30 students from which were 17 in the control group and 17 in the experimental group, patience training was given for 5 weeks. The "Patient Scale" developed by Schnitker (2010) and adapted to Turkish by Eliüşük and Arslan (2016) and the "Life Satisfaction Scale" developed by Diener, Emmons, Larsen and Griffin (1985) and adapted to Turkish by Dağlı and Baysal (2016) were used as a data collection tool in the study. The "Wilcoxon" test was used for the comparison of in-group differences in the analysis of obtained data and the "Mann-Whitney U" test was used in examining the differences between the two groups. As a result of the study, it was observed that the patience and life satisfaction average scores of students in the experimental group receiving "patience training" increased significantly, while there was no significant difference in the patience and life satisfaction averages scores of the control group students.

The Influence Of Anjang-anjangan Traditional Game On Young Children’s Character Trait Of Responsibility. The research intends to find the influence of anjang-anjangan traditional game on young children’s character trait of responsibility. It adopted quasi-experimental method with nonequivalent control group design. The research was conducted to Group B of State Kindergarten Centeh, Bandung City, with a number of 14 and 17 children as the sample for the experimental and control groups, respectively. Data were collected using a research instrument in the form of observation guidelines. The results of the pretest show that 25% of the children in the experimental group had shown an emerging character trait of responsibility and the rest 75% had not; meanwhile, 36% of the children in the control group had demonstrated an emerging character trait of responsibility, and the rest 64% had not.

This investigation ascertained the effect of modular instruction on the performance in Biology of freshmen fishery students at the Carlos Hilado Memorial State College (CHMSC) - College of Fisheries during the second semester of the school year 2009-2010. Experimental research using the pre - test, post - test control group design was employed to achieve the objectives of the study. Participants were grouped into the experimental and the control groups. The experimental group was exposed to modular instruction while the control group was exposed to lecture-discussion approach. The pre-test performances of both experimental and control groups were fair. The post-test performance of the experimental group taught by modular instruction was superior while that of the control group taught by lecture-discussion was very good. A significant difference was found between the pre - test of the modular and lecture-discussion groups in favor of the latter group. A significant difference was found between the post - test results of the control group in favor of the experimental group. Significant differences were found between the pre - tests and post -tests of the experimental and control groups hence, modular instruction was better than the lecture -discussion approach in effecting students’ performance in Biology.

The study was based on a semi-experimental approach. The study sample consisted of two groups (experimental and control) of 49 students of sixth grade in the primary school of Omar bin Sulayem (3 weeks later) to measure the survival of the learning effect, and it was also applied as a measure of the level of achievement of the vocabulary of the English language. The results were statistically analyzed by calculating the arithmetic averages, standard deviations, Ancova and T-test. The results of the study showed a statistically significant difference between the average scores of the control group and the experimental group in the post- (20.62). The experimental average was 25.56, an increase of (4.94) for the experimental group. The results also showed that there was no statistically significant difference between the average scores of the experimental group in the post- The average test was Achievement posttest (25.56), while the average achievement test posttest deferred (25.48); therefore these results have confirmed the effectiveness of the use of maps in the collection strategy Tagged English vocabulary material and the survival of the students of the sixth primary development.
