using lottery system. The data have been taken from pre-test and post-test which 
analyzed by using t-test formula. Based on the calculation, the mean of difference 
is 13.4. Then, the total of deviation of difference is -6.9. Moreover, t-test value is 
2.6. Meanwhile, t-table value is 2.145 at significant level 0.05 with the degree of 
freedom (df) is 14. In this case, the t-test value is higher than t-table value
