Main Article Content
Abstract
This research aimed to 1) investigate brain-based learning management guidelines for enhancing analytical thinking skills on the topic of Thai language change among Thai student teachers, and 2) enhance analytical thinking skills on the topic of Thai language change for Thai student teachers by brain-based learning management. The target group comprised 30 first-year Thai student teachers. The research utilized three brain-based learning management plans, each lasting four hours, totaling twelve hours, reflection forms for learning management, worksheets, and a test used to measure analytical thinking skills in Thai language change. Data analysis was conducted using content analysis and triangulation.
The finding were as follows: 1) Brain-based learning management approaches to enhance analytical thinking skills consisted of the following essential points: Teachers should prepare a variety of Brain Gym activities to stimulate students’ brains and prepare them for learning new things, should be opportunities provided for students to present their work to exchange knowledge with their classmates, and should organize new experiences similar to previous experiences can help students practice their analytical thinking skills more accurately, and 2) Before brain-based learning management, 1 student had analytical thinking skills on the topic of Thai language change at a good level, 6 students had a fair level, and 23 students had improved levels. After brain-based learning management, 25 students had analytical thinking skills on the topic of Thai language change at a good level, 4 students had a fair level, and 1 student had improved levels.
