Based on the result of descriptive statistic analysis, it showed that the mean score of Experimental group was 84.19 and the mean score of control group was 76.11. This indicated that the experimental group performed better than the control group due to the higher mean score. Meanwhile, the result of inferential statistic analysis through independent sample t-test showed that the value of to was 2.247, which was higher than the value of tcv at 2.00 (significance level 5%).
