While the tools used in collecting data is a proven instrument that is valid and reliable. The results of the initial test scores and the final tests were then calculated by statistical tests using Wilcoxon's signed ranks test (Wilcoxon matched pairs) formula and the resulting results where the value of ASYMP.
