Q: An educator believes that new reading activities in the classroom will help elementary school pupils improve their reading ability. She arranges for a third grade class of 11 students to follow these activities for an 8-week period. A control classroom of 13 third graders follows the same curriculum without the activities. At the end of the 8 weeks, all students are given the Degree of Reading Power (DRP) test, which measures the aspects of reading ability that the treatment is designed to improve. The table below represents the results of this test (assume the population Standard Deviations are equal). See Data Set for values below.
Based on the evidence provided, does it appear that these new reading activities actually improve scoring on the DRP at the 5% significance level?
