Abstract

This paper aims to develop of the training package using the P-PIADA training model on the usage of GUI–MATLAB program. First, we surveyed the need for training content, then analyzed various training courses from related documents and revised related literature. Next, we developed the P-PIADA training model based on STEM education. The P-PIADA training model consists of six processes including 1) Preparation, 2) Pre-learning, 3) Informing, 4) Application, 5) Discussion and 6) Assessment. Then, we constructed a training package on the usage of GUI–MATLAB program. The training package consists of a trainer’s manual, PowerPoint presentation, teaching aids and an achievement test. Finally, the quality of the developed P-PIADA training model was evaluated by five experts and was implemented by a sampling group of 25 trainees. The results showed that the quality of the developed P-PIADA training model was appropriate (mean=4.38, S.D. = 0.18) and the P-PIADA based training package was efficient in according to Meguigans’s theory.
