Development of Learning Management on Interactive Constructivist Approach in Biology Studies to Enhance Scientific Reasoning Abilities of Mathayomsuksa 5 Students
Keywords:
Interactive constructivist approach, Scientific reasoning AbilityAbstract
The purposes of this research were (1) to compare the scientific reasoning abilities of Mathayomsuksa 5 Students through before and after learning activities on interactive constructivist approach in biology (2) to compare the scientific reasoning abilities of Mathayomsuksa 5 Students who passed learning activities on interactive constructivist approach in biology with a criterion of 70%. and (3) to study the students' satisfaction with learning activities on interactive constructivist approach in biology to promote the scientific reasoning abilities of Mathayomsuksa 5 Students. the sample group was 39 Mathayomsuksa 5 Students from two Mathematics-Science program classes, Thanyaburi school. the instruments in data collection consisted of based on interactive constructivist approach in biology about the circulatory system, the scientific reasoning test, and the satisfaction questionnaire for learning management base on interactive constructivist approach. percentage, mean, standard deviation, and t-test were used for analyzing data. The research findings revealed that (1) the students had scored the scientific reasoning abilities after learning higher than before learning at the .05 level of significance, (2) the students had scored the scientific reasoning abilities after learning higher than 70% at the .05 level of significance and (3) the students had a level of satisfaction with learning activities on interactive constructivist approach in biology at the most satisfactory level.
