The value of P (58.05), the value of the significance level (0.00), that is less than (0.05), which indicates that there are significant differences between the experimental group and the control group for the benefit of the experimental group, and the value of (P) Between the sex and the group was (1.00), which is not statistically significant value, where its significance (0.32), and does not indicate the existence of an effect of interaction between the teaching method and sex.
