Effect of Learning Management by Using Problem Based Learning toward Learning Achievement and Scientific Problem-Solving Ability of Prathomsuksa 6 Students Effect of Learning Management by Using Problem Based Learning toward Learning Achievement and Scientific Problem-Solving Ability of Prathomsuksa 6 Students

Abstract

The purposes of this research were 1) compare the learning achievement of Prathomsuksa 6 students before and after learning through Problem-based Learning, 2) compare the scientific problem-solving ability after learning with 70 percent criterion. 3) investigate the students’ satisfaction toward learning management by using Problem-based Learning. The samples of this study were 21 students of Prathomsuksa 6 students studying in the first semester of academic year 2023 at Watjamarom School, Kasetwisai District, Roiet Province. They were selected by Cluster Random Sampling. The research instrument included: 1) lesson plans for world phenomena and natural disasters, 2) achievement tests, 3) scientific problem-solving ability test, 4) satisfaction questionnaire. Data were analyzed using percentage, mean, standard deviation, Dependent Sample t-test and One Sample t-test.

           The results of the study were as follows: 1) Learning achievement scores of Prathomsuksa 6 students after learning management by using Problem-based Learning were significantly higher than before learning at a .05 statistical level or 59.15 percent. 2)  Scientific problem-solving ability scores of Prathomsuksa 6 students after learning were higher than the specified 70 criteria at a .05 statistical level. The percentage of the scores was 84.50 3) Student’s satisfaction towards Problem-based Learning as a whole was at a high level. The most satisfaction is the content is useful for daily life.
