The technique of collecting the data by using test, the test consist of 20 items of pre test and 20 items of post test. From the data analyzes, it found that the mean of pre test score is 35,3. The mean of post test score 69,7. The researcher used the pooled variance model t-test to find out the effect variable X towards variable Y. The result of applying pooled variance model t-test, is 2,093 and () is 5,55 the degree of significant 5%. It means is higher than (5,55 > 2,093), so the alternative hypothesis is accepted and null hypothesis is rejected.
