In the post-test, the experimental class obtained a mean score of 69.92, whereas the control class scored 54.83. The students' performance significantly improved from the pre-test to the post-test. Whereas the p-value (Sig. (2-tailed)) .000 less than alpha (0.05) or p<0.05. It led to rejecting the null hypothesis (H0) and accepting the alternative hypothesis (Ha).
