Development of eleventh grade students' scientific conceptions in the topic of Circulatory system in Biology course by Context-based learning together with mnemonic
Main Article Content
Abstract
The purpose of this research aims to develop scientific conceptions of Grade 11 students by Context-based learning together with mnemonic, with the intention to achieve scientific understanding level. The target group was 25 students in mathayomsuksa 5/10 students Sarakhampittayakhom School, Thailand, studied in the second semester of academic year 2019. Action Research was used in this research which consist of 3 cycles. The research instruments were: 1) ninth lesson plans with Context-based learning together with mnemonic 2) the open-ended conceptual test covering 18 questions on the topic of Circulatory system 3) the observational checklist and 4) the semi- structured interview.
The research presented that in the first cycle, 5 students (20%) had scientific conceptions on scientific understanding level. In the second cycle, 13 students (52%) had scientific concepts understanding on sound understanding level. In the third cycle, 16 students (64%) had scientific concepts understanding on scientific understanding level.
