Effectiveness of 5e-model of Instruction for Scientific Achievement

Abstract

This study was designed to investigate the effects of 5E Instructions on scientific achievement of students with hearing impairment. Further, it intended to explore the effectiveness of 5E Model with respect to gender, cognitive domain and ability levels of the students. For this purpose, a set of instructions were developed on the basis of 5E Model and a scientific achievement test based on three levels of cognitive domain was constructed. The results of control group and experimental group were analyzed to assess the effectiveness with respect to gender, cognitive domain and ability levels of the students. It was concluded that experimental group significantly performed better in the post-test on the basis of scores in cognitive domain and ability level.
