The present study was conducted to assess the effectiveness of e-Content strategy as compared with conventional strategy of teaching Mathematics to the students of class seventh. The experimental procedure was executed. One experimental and one control group was formed. The e-Content group as experimental group was taught Mathematics with the supplement of e-Content, the control group was taught Mathematics through Conventional method. A sample of 80 pupils from VII grade was taken and to measure the achievement in Mathematics, self developed Mathematics Achievement Test was used as research tool. After the Pre-test, 2 months treatment and post test, descriptive statistics namely mean, standard deviation and inferential statistics namely t-test and analysis of covariance was used. Analyzing the data with the help of correlated t-test, it was concluded that teaching Mathematics through e-Content significantly enhanced Mathematics achievement of students. With the help of one way ANCOVA, it was also concluded that e-Content improve Mathematics achievement significantly higher in comparison to Conventional method when groups were matched on Pre-Mathematics achievement.

Abstract


The present study was conducted to assess the effectiveness of e-Content strategy as compared with conventional strategy of teaching Mathematics to the students of class seventh. The experimental procedure was executed. One experimental and one control group was formed. The e-Content group as experimental group was taught Mathematics with the supplement of e-Content, the control group was taught Mathematics through Conventional method. A sample of 80 pupils from VII grade was taken and to measure the achievement in Mathematics, self developed Mathematics Achievement Test was used as research tool. After the Pre-test, 2 months treatment and post test, descriptive statistics namely mean, standard deviation and inferential statistics namely t-test and analysis of covariance was used. Analyzing the data with the help of correlated t-test, it was concluded that teaching Mathematics through e-Content significantly enhanced Mathematics achievement of students. With the help of one way ANCOVA, it was also concluded that e-Content improve Mathematics achievement significantly higher in comparison to Conventional method when groups were matched on Pre-Mathematics achievement.
