Tests are an important part of teaching and learning as they measure a person's knowledge or performance in a given area. The researcher administered a pre-test to both the experimental and control groups before treatment to establish a baseline, and a post-test after treatment to measure any changes in student ability. Both tests required students to write a procedure text paying attention to fluency, grammar, vocabulary, content, and spelling.
