Abstract
The objectives of this research were (1) to develop non–formal education management activities using game-based learning to strengthen self–esteem of drop out teenagers, and (2) to investigate the effects of the organized non-formal education management activities using game-based learning to strengthen self-esteem of drop out teenagers. This study was conducted using pre-experimental design of one group, pretest-posttest design. The research sample consisted of 12 purposively selected teenagers, aged 15-19 years, who dropped out of the school. The research instruments included (1) a self-esteem assessment scale, (2) a behavior observation form, (3) a diary record, and (4) an admission follow-up form. Data collected from the self-esteem assessment scale were statistically analyzed using the percentage, mean, and standard deviation. Data collected from behavior observation form and diary record were analyzed using content analysis. Data collected from the admission follow-up form were analyzed using the percentage. The results of this study revealed that (1) the development of non-formal education management activities resulted in obtaining 10 learning management plans and learning games such as recreation and smart phone games; (2) after participating in the organized activities, the sample’s self-esteem mean score increased by 8.92 points; the results of studying data from the behavior observation form and diary record revealed that the sample’s self-esteem was at the very good level; and 91.74 % of the respondents applied for admission to continue their education.
