Abstract
The thesis entitled "Effectiveness of Magazine Cutouts for Teaching English
Prepositions " was an attempt to find out the effectiveness of magazine cutouts in
teaching English prepositions. It has been carried out practically and comparatively. To
carry out this research, thirty students of grade - V from the government school "Shree
Shiwalaya Higher Secondary School" Kushma, Parbat, were selected as sample
population. A test consisting of five different test items were used as the main tool for
data collection. A pre-test was administered before starting teaching to determine the
proficiency of the students. Then, they were divided into two groups on the basis of the
odd-even serial number according to the individual scores obtained in the pre-test. After
that, both groups were taught the same subject matter. The only difference between
experimental group and controlled group was that magazine cutouts were used for
teaching English prepositions to the experimental group and the usual technique was used
for controlled group. After the completion of teaching, a post-test (the same test) was
administered. Then, the results of both pre-test and post-test were compared to determine
the role of magazine cutouts in teaching prepositions. The main finding of this thesis is
that teaching English prepositions using magazine cutouts is more effective than teaching
without them.
This thesis is divided into four chapters. Each chapter is divided into different sub- headings. The first chapter deals with general background of the study, review of the
literature, objective of the study and significance of the study. The second chapter deals
with the methodology, data gathering procedure and limitations of the study. The third
chapter deals with analysis, interpretations and presentation of the data. The chapter four
deals with the findings and recommendations of the study in which some pedagogical
implications have been recommended to carry out similar type of further studies. It is
dealt with the help of analysis and interpretation of the collected data
