Based on data analysis, the range score from experimental class is 57-86, while from control class is 50-84. Furthermore, the research findings shows that t<sub>count</sub> = 3.098 and t<sub>table</sub>= 2,002 with the significance degree of ? = 0,05 (t<sub>count </sub>&gt; t<sub>table</sub>)<sub>. </sub>Sincet<sub>count </sub>is higher than t<sub>table</sub>, it means that H<sub>1 </sub>is accepted.
