RESULTS

The study compares post-test scores between a control group and an experimental group of 25 students each, with the experimental group showing significantly higher mean scores (14.16) compared to the control group (9.52). An independent samples t-test resulted in a t-value of -5.39, which is less than the critical value of 3.505, leading to the rejection of the null hypothesis. The findings suggest that a game-based approach effectively enhances students' mastery of integers in Grade 7.

t- value is -5.3947840045924.

Critical value or t-crit = the intersection of degree of freedom and the confidence level of 0.05

Degree of freedom = n1 +n 2−2


= 25 + 25 – 2 = 48
t-crit = 3.505

DISCUSSION

Using the independent samples t-test, the t-value is -5.3947840045924. The critical value is
3.505. The 25 students who received the intervention compared to the 25 students in the control
group demonstrated significantly high scores.

Since t-value is less than the critical value, reject the null hypothesis. The results of the study
indicate that there is a significant difference between the control and experimental groups. The
study suggests that game-based approach can improve students’ mastery of integers in Grade 7.
The experimental group, which received instruction using game-based showed a greater
improvement in post-test results than the control group, which received traditional instruction.
