Moreover, the academic achievement data through in class participation and examination were collected and analyzed. The data was analyzed using T-test, it showed that there was slight improvement in students’ cooperation, engagement and performance after implementing IDIs. The students’ cooperation increased by 0.51, the students’ engagement increased by 0.43 and the average mean of students’ performance increased by 0.45. Moreover, the P-value of each variable was less than the significance level of 0.05.
