The result of the t-test value was (14.69) greater than the t-table value was (2.074). This indicates that the null hypothesis (H0) was rejected and the alternative hypothesis (H1) was accepted. In other word, after the treatment, it can be concluded that the mean score of the students’ pre-test is smaller than the mean score of the students’ post-test (55.5 < 82.06).
