THE DEVELOPMENT OF AN ACTIVE LEARNING MANAGEMENT MODEL USING THE DELPDE MODEL IN CONJUNCTION WITH LEARNING ACTIVITY PACKAGE ON BUDDHISM TO PROMOTE MORAL AND ETHICAL SKILLS FOR FIFTH GRADE STUDENTS

Abstract

         This research aimed to 1) development of an active learning management model using the DELPDE model in conjunction with learning activity package on Buddhism to promote moral and ethical skills for fifth grade students and 2) assess the appropriateness, feasibility, and usefulness of an active learning management model using the DELPDE model in conjunction with learning activity package on Buddhism to promote moral and ethical skills for fifth grade students. This research was a research and development study. The participants were 10 professional educators on developing model, and 5 experts. The instruments used in the study focus group discussion records and assessment of the appropriateness, feasibility and usefulness of the learning model. The basic statistics used for analyzing the collected data were means and standard deviation.  

          The results revealed that 1) The development of an active learning management model using the DELPDE model in conjunction with learning activity package on Buddhism to promote moral and ethical skills for fifth grade students components included (1) principles, concepts, theories (2) objectives of the model (3) learning management process (4) social system (5) response principles and (6) support system. The learning management process included (1) develop awareness (2) elicitation (3) learning (4) Practicing with instructor guidance (5) Develop intelligence and (6) evaluation. The results of the assessment of the appropriateness, feasibility, and usefulness of the developed learning model are at the highest level. In conclusion, the developed model appropriated to enhance learning for students and was accepted to be developed as a learning tool.
