B. Data Analysis and Hypothesis Testing
1. Analysis of Pre-test and Post-test
a. Normality
A normality test is needed to find out whether the hypothesis of the research has been normally distributed or not; the data are homogeneous or
heterogeneous. This test is scored by using SPSS Statistic 17. The normality test can be seen as follow:

. This is a lower bound of the true significance.
The normality calculation above used One-Sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov Test and Liliefors. From the table above, it is shown the absolute difference D of
controlled class data is 0.136. It is lesser than D
table
with the closest Kolmogorov- Smirnov critical points of 25 = 0,264. Besides, from the Lilliefors test, it shows
that the normality is significant. So, it can be concluded that the data is normal as
what has been written down exactly below the table.
