THE DEVELOPMENT OF PRINTMAKING INSTRUCTIONAL MODEL BY APPLYING COOPERATIVE LEARNING TECHNIQUE TO IMPROVE ART SKILLS: THE STUDY OF ARTS (VISUAL ARTS), PRATHOMSUKSA 5

Abstract

            The development of this instructional model aims to 1) review the background information and the demand on the development of art learning (visual arts) by applying cooperative learning to enhance art skills 2) design printmaking instructional model by applying cooperative learning approach to promote art skills in the study of visual arts in PrathomSuksa 5 3) try using printmaking instructional model by applying cooperative learning approach to enhance art skill the study of visual arts in PrathomSuksa 5 4)evaluate and improve printmaking instructional model by applying cooperative learning approach to enhance art skill the study of visual arts in PrathomSuksa 5. The sample of the study was the group of students of PrathomSuksa 5/1 Class, PhasukManichakMittraphap located No. 116, Nakhon Pak Kret 2, in Semester 1 Academic Year 2019. The participants were randomly selected. The research instruments include: 1) questionnaire 2) printmaking instructional model by applying cooperative learning to promote art skills, art learning (visual arts), PrathomSuksa 5 3) assessment form 4) learning achievement test 5) art skill evaluation form and 6) questionnaire on satisfaction. Data was analyzed by applying percentage, mean, standard deviation, t-test dependent.

            The research findings suggested that: 1) The cooperative learning should be promoted as a teaching method for learning visual arts so that the learners have adequate time for doing activities. Also, this approach might allow students with higher capacity to help those with lesser capacity which is one of the objectives of group learning. 2) For the design of the instructional model based on “PLCA Model”, the test result of the model was at high level. The developmental testing at tryout stage revealed that the efficiency was 80.20/80.33 3) The result of the model showed that the efficiency was at 83.03/84.02. 4) For the assessment and improvement of printmaking instructional model, (1) The comparison of learning achievement before and after the class indicated difference with statistical significance of .01. (2) The assessment of overall art skills revealed highest level. (3) The assessment of student’s overall satisfaction toward the instructional model was at high level.
