The Online 5E’s Inquiry-Based Learning on Cell to Promote Analytical Thinking of Grade 7 Students

Abstract

The objectives of this research were to: 1 The Online 5E’s Inquiry-Based Learning on Cell to Promote analytical thinking of Students Grade 7, 2) comparing analytical thinking scores of the students with the criteria of 70%, and 3) compared posttest academic achievement scores of the students to Promote analytical thinking of Students Grade 7 Learning on Cell with the criteria of 70. The sample group was Grade 7 students of Rajabhat Maha Sarakham University Demonstration School. They were obtained by Cluster Random sampling technique. The research tools include: 1) 7 learning management learning plans for 12 hours, 2) The four multiple choices analytical thinking Test for 25 items with IOC accuracy between 0.60 - 1.00, discriminant power between 0.20 - 0.80 and reliability of 0.87, and 3) The four multiple choices achievement tests for 45 items with IOC accuracy between 0.60 - 1.00, discriminant power between 0.30 - 0.83 and reliability of 0.75. The data analysis statistics were percentage, mean, standard deviation and t-test for One simple for hypotheses testing.

                 The research found that, 1) quality of the online 5E’s inquiry-based learning on Cell to promote

analytical thinking of grade 7 students by experts revealed at high appropriateness level. (  = 4.28, S.D.= 0.16 to    = 4.37, S.D. = 0.15), 2) the students’ analytical thinking score was statistically higher than the 70 percent criteria at .05 level significance level, and 3) the students’ posttest academic achievement scores were statistically higher than the 70 percent criteria at .05 significance level.
