Grades in College Algebra; and 1.2.
Grades in Business Statistics. 2.
To determine the pretest and the posttest achievement and Mathematics Attitude mean scores of the students who are exposed to: 2.1.
JIGSAW II model; and 2.2.
Traditional method in teaching Business Calculus. 3.
To determine if there is a significant difference between the pretest and posttest achievement mean scores of the students who are exposed to: 3.1.
JIGSAW II model; and 3.2.
Traditional method in teaching Business Calculus. 4.
To determine if there is a significant difference between the posttest achievement mean scores of the students who had undergone the JIGSAW II model and the traditional method in teaching Business Calculus. 5.
To determine if there is a significant difference between the pretest and the posttest Mathematics Attitude Scale mean scores of the students who were exposed to: 5.1.
JIGSAW II model; and 5.2.
Traditional method in teaching Business Calculus. 6.
