Scenario:
Samantha, who works for an educational curriculum company, was asked to test a new reading program called E-Z read. She asked the principal of Desert Elementary School for permission to access two classrooms, where she could test the program. Students were randomly assigned to both classrooms. Miss Jones's class was asked to use E-Z read program for one semester, and Mrs. Brown's class was asked to continue using their regular reading program. At the end of the semester both classes took a test to assess their reading skills. Students' grades were compared to see if implementing E-Z read program improved reading skills.
