The Results of Strand Technology Learning Activities by Computational Thinking Process Combined with TAI Technique Group Process for Enhancing Knowledge about Systems Thinking Skills and Creative Thinking Skills of Prathomsuksa 4 Students

Abstract

This Article aimed to 1) develop activities to learn about technology computational thinking process combined with TAI technique group process for enhancing knowledge about systematic thinking skills and creative thinking skills of Prathomsuksa 4 Students 2) study the results of using technology learning activities by organizing the learning process of computational thinking combined with the TAI technique group process for enhancing knowledge about systematic thinking skills and creative thinking skills of Prathomsuksa 4 Students 2.1) compare learning results between before and after class 2.2) compare systematic thinking skills between before and after class 2.3) develop creative thinking skills. The research design is experimental research. The concept of collaborative learning using TAI techniques, computational thinking processes, learning outcomes systematic thinking and creative thinking. The sample was Prathomsuksa 4 Students at Saiyokyai school of academic year 2023, number of 23 people. They were selected by cluster random sampling using the classroom as the unit for random sampling. There  are  4  types  of  tools  used  in  the  research: 1) technology learning plan on simple programming 2) learning outcomes test 3) systematic thinking test, 4) thinking skills assessment form. The  statistics  used  in  the  data  analysis  were  percentage, mean, standard deviation and t test. The research results were found as follows;

1) Technology learning activities by computational thinking process combined with TAI technique group process consisting of 4 steps: 1) preparation  2) group process 2.1) determine the problem that needs to be solved, divide the big problem into sub-problems 2.2) thinking about patterns 2.3) abstract thinking 2.4) algorithm design 3) evaluation stage 4) reinforcement stage had an efficiency of 89.28/81.74 which meets the set criterion 80/80.

2) The results of using technology learning activities comparative results of learning outcomes. There was a significantly higher learning outcome after studying than before studying at the .05 level. Results of comparing systematic thinking skills after studying was significantly higher than before studying at the .05 level. Creative thinking skills consisted of initiative, agile thinking, flexible thinking and elaboration scores in all were not less than 80 percent passing the evaluation criteria for 23 people. Indicating that students can perform activities together with others as assigned, study, work together, exchange information among friends in the group, take responsibility, help each other for success of the group and can create work pieces from analyzing problems in a step-by-step until being able to cultivate thinking skills and abilities increase the abilities of students.
