The Development of Context-based Learning with Web-Based Instruction to Enhance the Scientific Explanation Ability of Mathayomsuksa 5 Students

Abstract

The purposes of this research were 1) to develop learning activities using Context-based Learning with Web-Based Instruction with a required efficiency of 75/75, 2) to develop scientific explanations ability receiving learning activities using Context-based Learning with Web-Based Instruction on the topic ‘static electricity’ for mathayomsuksa 5 students to pass the criteria at excellent level, and 3) to compare learning achievement on the topic of ‘static electricity’ for mathayomsuksa 5 students through using Context-based Learning with Web-Based Instruction with 75 percent criteria. The samples used in this study were 34 students of Mathayomsuksa 5 in the 2nd semester of 2021 academic year at Mahasarakham University Demonstration School (Secondary). The research instruments included 1) the lessons for Web-Based Instruction on the topic of static electricity, 2) the lesson plans in topic of static electricity, 3) the scientific explanation ability test and 4) the achievement test. Statistics values used in this study consist of percentage, mean and standard deviation

The results were as follows: 1) The learning activities development using Context-based Learning with Web-Based Instruction of the Mathayomsuksa 5 students had an efficiency (E₁/E₂) of 78.44/81.44;  2) Students who have been learning by using Context-based Learning with Web-Based Instruction having scientific explanation ability to pass the criteria at excellent level were 34 students; 3) Students who have been learning by using Context-based Learning with Web-Based Instruction having higher learning achievement than 75 percent criteria.
