The Effect of Active Learning with Emphasizing Higher Order Questions in Logic upon Mathematics Learning Achievement and Mathematical Communication Ability of Mathayomsuksa 4 Students The Effect of Active Learning with Emphasizing Higher Order Questions in Logic upon Mathematics Learning Achievement and Mathematical Communication Ability of Mathayomsuksa 4 Students

Abstract

          The research aimed 1) to compare the learning achievement before and after studying logic by active learning with emphasizing higher order question of Mathayom 4 students, 2) to compare learning achievement after studying logic b with the criteria of 70 percent, and 3) to compare mathematical communication ability after studying logic with the criteria of 70 percent. The sample of this study were 45 Mathayom Suksa 4 students at Nongki Phitthayakhom School. Research tools include: 1) 12 lesson plans, 2) a test to measure learning achievement, 30 items. and 3) a test to measure ability in Mathematical communication, 5 items. The statistics used for data analysis were percentage, mean, standard deviation and hypothesis was tested by using Dependent Sample t-test and One Sample t-test.

          The results of the study were as follows: 1) Learning achievement after studying logic was significantly higher than before learning at the .05, 2) Learning achievement after studying logic was higher than the 70% criteria with statistical significance at the .05 level, and 3) Mathematical communication ability after studying logic is higher than the 70% criteria with statistical significance at the .05 level.
