Abstract

          The aim of this research is to compare the results of learning management according to STEM education.  In terms of knowledge and Conceptual Understanding on the relationship between the Earth, the Moon and the Sun before class and after class and to compare the results of learning management according to STEM education in terms of student mental representations. On the relationship between the earth, moon and sun after studying with the criteria of 80 percent of Mathayom 3 students, the sample groups are: Mathayom 3/2 students at Prasatwittayakarn School, Prasat District, Surin Province, Semester 1, Academic Year 2023, totaling 35 people. The research tools include: 1) 4 lesson plans 2) 2-way conceptual understanding test, 8 items 3) Study of thinking representatives Statistics used in data analysis are percentage, mean, standard deviation and t - test statistics.


          The results of the research found that 1) students who received learning according to STEM education had a higher Conceptual Understanding regarding the relationship between the earth, the moon and the sun after studying than before. Statistically significant at the .05 level. 2) Students who received learning management according to STEM education had a mental representations after learning higher than the criteria of 80%, with statistical significance.
