Based on the completeness standard, a score of 53% was obtained, namely 9 of 25 students belong to the complete category and 47%, namely 8 out of 25 students are included in the incomplete category, meaning that approximately half of the students need improvement In cycle II, the average score of student learning outcomes was 87.3 from the ideal score that might be achieved, namely 100, the highest score achieved was 95 while the lowest score was 55.
