Results from the paired sample t-test revealed statistically significant differences (p <= .05) in student competency self-assessment between the pretest and the posttest‚ and the posttest and the retrospective test on all 19 competencies (Table 2). Cohen’s effect size values ranging from 0.51 to 2.30 suggested moderate or high practical significance. These findings
