The researcher calculated the mean score and standard deviation, normality, homogeneity and testing hypothesis. The results of the data analysis indicated that the mean score of pre-test was 30.48 and the post-test was 52.41. In testing hypothesis the researcher used Paired Sample t-test and total score 20.29 at p = 0.00. In normality testing the researcher used Shapiro-Wilk, total score of pre-test was 0.08 and post-test was 0.27. The result of homogeneity testing was 0.74.
