Table 1 shows that there is a significant difference on the performance among the Three
Curriculums: STE, SPA and BE in the Pre-Test MTS (F(2, 45)=5.010, p=.011), Post-Test MTS
(F(2, 45)=5.920, p=.005), Pre-Test MPS (F(2, 45)=5.010, p=.011), and Post-Test MPS (F(2,
45)=5.919, p=.005).
Since the probability values are less than 0.05, a Post Hoc Analysis should be conducted
to determine where the significant difference lies.
Table 2. Pre-Test Mean Test Scores Post Hoc analysis for the Significant Difference in Three
Curriculums
Curriculum (I) Curriculum (J) Mean Difference (I-J) p
STE SPA 4.67500 .008*
BE 2.62188 .191
SPA BE -2.05312 .356
*p<0.05
Table 2 shows the Post Hoc analysis in the pre-test mean test scores of the students in 3
curriculums. There is a significant difference in STE and SPA curriculums (MD=4.67500,
p=.008), while there are no significant differences in STE & BEC curriculums (MD=2.62188,
p=.191) and SPA & BEC curriculums (MD=-2.05312, p=.356)
It implies that the performance of students in STE and SPA curriculums is better
compared to BE curriculum in terms of pre-test mean test scores.

*p<0.05
Table 3 shows the Post Hoc analysis in the post-test mean test scores of the students in 3
curriculums. There is a significant difference in STE and SPA curriculums (MD=5.32188,
p=.004), while there are no significant differences in STE & BEC curriculums (MD=3.21938,
p=.108) and SPA & BEC curriculums (MD=-2.10250, p=.376)
It implies that the performance of students in STE and SPA curriculums is better
compared to BE curriculum in terms of post-test mean test scores.

Three Curriculums

SPA BE -5.13188 .356
*p<0.05
Table 4 shows the Post Hoc analysis in the pre-test mean percentage scores of the
students in 3 curriculums. There is a significant difference in STE and SPA curriculums
(MD=11.68750, p=.008), while there are no significant differences in STE & BEC curriculums
(MD=6.55562, p=.191) and SPA & BEC curriculums (MD=-5.13188, p=.356)
It implies that the performance of students in STE and SPA curriculums is better
compared to BE curriculum in terms of pre-test mean percentage scores.

*p<0.05
Table 5 shows the Post Hoc analysis in the post-test mean percentage scores of the
students in 3 curriculums. There is a significant difference in STE and SPA curriculums
(MD=13.30375, p=.004), while there are no significant differences in STE & BEC curriculums
(MD=8.04750, p=.108) and SPA & BEC curriculums (MD=-5.25625, p=.376)
It implies that the performance of students in STE and SPA curriculums is better
compared to BE curriculum in terms of post-test mean percentage scores.
