Developing activities to enhance Geo-literacy learning For Grade 9 students

Abstract

The purposes of the research were to: (1) study guidelines for developing activities to enhance geo-literacy learning for grade 9 students. (2) Develop learning activities in developing activities to enhance geo-literacy learning for grade 9 students that effective by criteria 80/80. (3) Study results of using activities to enhance geo-literacy learning for grade 9 students. (4) Study student's satisfaction towards learning activities in developing activities to enhance geo-literacy learning for grade 9 students. The participants were 40 grade 9 students, in the second semester of the academic year 2020; Sirindhornschool, Muang district, Surin that came from the cluster random sampling. The research instruments were: Research synthesis record form, Expert interview form, 5 Lesson plans with the overall result is the most appropriated (=4.78, =0.36) Geo-literacy test of multiple choices found that the difficulty of achievement test equals .43-.60 and the geo-literacy equals .31-.59 with 30 questions, the reliability equals 0.87 and Satisfaction assessment form by using activities to enhance geo-literacy learning with 13 questions, the index of item-objectivecongruence (IOC) equals.80-1.00. The statistics used for data analysis were percentage, means, standard deviation and t-test (Dependent Sample).

            The results of the research were as follows: (1) Guidelines for organizing learning activities on developing activities to enhance geo-literacy learning for grade 9 students should use 3 techniques: Geographic capabilities, Geographic process and Geographic skills.(2) The results of the development of learning activities on developing activities to enhance geo-literacy learning for grade 9 students found that the activities of learning provide 5 steps activity process. First.Geo-questioning.Second, data collection.Third, Data management.Forth, Data analysis and interpretation. Fifth, summarization to answer questions and the efficiency was 86.96/86.33 which higher that the established standardized criteria. (3) The result after organizing learning activities developing activities to enhance geo-literacy learning for grade 9 students had higher learning achievement and analytical ability than before learning with statistical significance at the level of .05. (4) Students learning by learning subject activities on developing activities to enhance geo-literacy learning for grade 9 students has the highest level of overall satisfaction.
