Writing samples were collected before and after the intervention and assessedwithan analytical rubric adapted from the IELTS Writing Band Descriptors. Becausethe data were not normally distributed (or per your chosen rationale), theWilcoxon Signed-Rank Test was used for analysis in SPSS. Results showedaclear gain in average scores, rising from 43.72 before the intervention to 72.56afterward, a difference that was statistically significant (p < 0.001).
