The Effects of Using a Guidance Activities Package to Develop Digital Intelligence Quotient of Mathayom Suksa II Students at Tessaban Khao Thaphra School in Chai Nat Province

Abstract

The purposes of this research were 1) to compare digital intelligence quotient of the experimental group students before and after using a guidance activities package to develop digital intelligence quotient; and 2) to compare digital intelligence quotient of the experimental group students who used the guidance activities package to develop digital intelligence quotient with the counterpart digital intelligence quotient of the control group students who used a set of information.  The research population consisted of 40 Mathayom Suksa II students of Tessaban Khoa Thaphra School in Chai Nat province during the first semester of the 2020 academic year.  They were randomly assigned into an experimental group comprising 20students and a control group comprising 20 students.  The research instruments were 1) a guidance activities package to develop digital intelligence quotient; 2) a set of information; and 3) a scale to assess digital intelligence quotient, with .90 reliability coefficient. The statistics for data analysis were the mean and standard deviation of population.  The research findings were as follows: 1) the post-experiment digital intelligence quotient of the experimental group students, who used the guidance activities package to develop digital intelligence quotient, was significantly higher than their pre-experiment counterpart digital intelligence quotient; and 2) the level of  digital intelligence quotient of the experimental group students, who used the guidance activities package to develop digital intelligence quotient, was significantly higher than the counterpart digital intelligence quotient level of the control group students who used the set of information.
