Table 3 provides a summary of the mean responses and standard deviation for advanced students<br />

from 2009 and 2010. Based on a t-test of differences in mean ratings from advanced students<br />

between 2009 and 2010, Table 3 indicates where the corresponding ratings were significantly<br />

different between 2009 and 2010 and provides an indication of the level of significance.<br />
