Using Internet as Research Tool: An Example of Meta-Analysis Study

Abstract

In this paper, we describe how internet can be used as a research tool through providing a study conducted by meta-analysis. Student academic success has always been a priority in education and mathematics education has been a major focus over last few decades. The quality of teachers is one of the most significant factors in shaping the growth and learning of students. The purpose of this study was to review the existing empirical studies accumulated to draw conclusions about various aspects of teacher qualifications that were linked with student mathematics achievement. A meta-analysis was used to provide a descriptive analysis of the existing empirical studies.
