An a ttempt to find out if th2ra was a difference between the two groups was made by an Ddmin i str~t ion of b pr~ - test which ~ n abled the researcher to accep t the hypothesis that the two groups hRve no statistically si1nificant diffe rences of background in their ~nowledge of vocabulary laarninn strate ' t~ • • T~Qn, a six -week teaching of J material of a l most the sam2 con: :: ~t was cond. __ ~ed fo:" both the ~: roups , thou Clh the ~eti1ods of t~aching differect sub ~ t a n t ially .
