Teachers who involve parents. Teachers Involve Parents in Schoolwork (TIPS) is an interactive homework process designed to improve the quality of homework assignments for elementary, middle, and high school students. TIPS homework assignments require students to conduct interactions with family partners (parents, guardians, etc.) while completing the homework. Frances Van Voorhis (Johns Hopkins University) conducted a study to investigate the effects of TIPS in science and mathematics homework assignments (April 2001). Each large group of middle school students was assigned to complete TIPS homework assignments. At the end of the study, all students reported on the level of family involvement in their homework on a 4-point scale (0 = Never, 1 = Rarely, 2 = Sometimes, 3 = Frequently, 4 = Always). The data for science and math for a random sample of 10 students selected from the large group are shown in the table. Conduct a nonparametric analysis to compare the level of family involvement in science and math homework assignments of TIPS students. Use \(\alpha = 05\).

ANSWER:
Step 1 of 3
TIPS is an interactive homework process designed to improve the quality of assignments for elementary, middle and high school students.
We have the data related to the participation of the family partners in completing the Maths and Science assignments of the students.
Under this the null and alternative hypotheses are
: There is no involvement of the family partners in the assignments
of maths and science.
:There is active involvement of the family partners in the assignments
of maths and science.
Level of significance is .
