Survey was conducted to test the effectiveness of a new teaching method in a geography course.  42 randomly selected students were given a short test, and the results were recorded in the variable Pre-Test.  After the students completed the class, they were asked to take a comparable test again, and the results of that test were recorded in the variable Post-test.  The results of both tests are given in the table.
