Development of Learning Achievement on Physical Science about the States of Matter using Inquiry-based Learning Technique (5E) for Prathomsuksa 4 Students in School Wangchan Education School Network under Rayong Primary Educational Service Area Office 2

Abstract

The objectives of this research were: 1) to develop learning achievement on physical science on the topic of states of matter by using inquiry-based learning technique (5E) to be according to the criteria of 80 percent 2) to determine learning progress of student 3) to compare academic achievement between student using the inquiry-based learning technique (5E) and those using the conventional method 4) to compare student satisfaction between the inquiry-based learning technique (5E) and the conventional learning method. The sample group consisted of 4th grade students from Ban Chumsaeng School, Chumsaeng Subdistrict, Wang Chan District, Rayong Province, who were studying in the second semester of the academic year 2024, consisting of 2 classrooms, 30 students per classroom, mixed and using a simple random sampling method. The research instruments consisted of 1) physical science study set 2) learning management plan 3) an achievement test 4) assessment of students' satisfaction data analysis methods included percentage, mean, Standard Deviation and t-test.

The results of this research found that:

1. Learning achievement after learning technique (5E) exceeded the standard criterion of 80 percent, with a statistical result of 81.67 percent
2. Educational learning progress showed a high level of 70.00
3. Students who learned using the inquiry-based learning technique (5E) achieved significantly higher scores than those who learned through conventional methods, with statistical significance at the 0.01 level
4. Student satisfaction with the inquiry-based learning technique (5E) was significantly higher than with the con with the conventional learning method, also at 0.01 level.
