STM is affected but it is too broad as not everything in STM is affected...however free recall is definitely afffected...

Mine is : Neap 2008 research Q5.B

b. What conclusion could Dr Kitchens infer from this result?

Solution
That the results of the study are statistically significant, that the teaching method used for
Group 2 was more effective and that this result could be generalised to the wider population
from which the sample was draw

Which info allows you to make generalizations and state if the hypothesis was supported



inferential statistics.
e.g. a p-value.

Generalisation can be made if the results are statistically significant (inferential statistics) and the sample is representative of the population.

A conclusion is just a judgment on the findings of the study and all you really need is a t test of significance and a hypothesis to either be supported or rejected.

lawl
checkpoints takes awhile
and has some irrelevancies
but took me a few days
however i only ever did it while sitting on my couch watching tv
multis are quick
but if you don't think you'll have time
just do SA is my suggestion

Is it worth your score? haha. If you don't think it will help don't do it. Only do sections you need help with (I have some practice exams that I really wanna do cos I feel really bad about wasting them but I know they won't do much so I'm focusing on other stuff). At least you've got extra material for a burning book bonfire...Triple B.

well if you're not a procrastinator i don't doubt that you could finish it :) i know with my severe lack of motivation i wouldn't be able to.
maybe start with your weakest AOS just incase you don't finish? so that at least you will have done the bit that you find the hardest if you don't get it all done :)

tbh, I don't know that cramming all of that on the day before the exam is such a good idea..
have you written notes? (jinny)

Eh, Checkpoints is just VCAA exams. If you've already done the current VCAA exams, then just skip those questions in the book. Then you'll only have a handful of questions left to do (relevant questions from exams from previous study designs).

Shouldn't take too long.
