The grouping was randomly based on study course. Results: The Man-Whitney test showed that the average score of students’ knowledge at pre-intervention stage did not have any significant difference (p=0. 32) but in the post-intervention it had a significant difference (p<0.001) so that 50% of students in experimental group obtained the score of 18.09 or over in statistics and the score of 50% of students in control group was less than 13.33.
