Abstract
The primary objective of this research was to examine the level of satisfaction among high-school Matthayomsuksa VI students at Panyaworakun School with an original set of vocabulary exercises developed based on the Grammar-Translation Method. The participants involved in this study consisted of 228 students enrolled in Class 6/1, 6/3, 6/5, 6/6, 6/7, 6/8, and 6/9 during the first semester of the academic year 2022 at Panyaworakun School. To assess the students’ satisfaction with the aforementioned vocabulary exercises, a questionnaire was utilized as the data collection instrument.
The questionnaire was specifically designed to gather information regarding the students’ contentment with the original version of vocabulary exercises. The data obtained from the questionnaire were analyzed using various statistical measures, including frequency, percentage, mean, and standard deviation. The findings of the research indicated that the entire cohort of 228 high-school Matthayomsuksa VI students, across all seven classes, expressed a high level of satisfaction with the original version of vocabulary exercises. This outcome aligns with the research hypothesis, further confirming the positive reception of the exercises among the students.
