Lhitung<Ltabel (0.0961 <0.161) for the experimental class. And 0.0815 <0.1610
for the control class so that the pretest data from both classes were normally
distributed. Fcount<F (1.27 <1.94), then the sample used in the study was stated
to be homogeneous, after being treated the posttest results of the experimental
class were 73.16 and the control class 69.66. The average student learning activity
is 64.92 which is classified as active. Hypothesis testing was carried out using the
t test, it was obtained tcount = 2.42 and ttable = 1.68 so that tcount>ttable then Ha
