The Learning by using Experimental Worksheets Techniques Affecting to Academic Achievements in the Course of Electrical Circuits 1 for the 1st year Diploma Vocational Certificate Students in the Field of Electrician Kamphaengphet Technical College

Abstract

This research is an experimental research. The objectives are pesent to 1) Assess the quality of the experimental worksheets in the course of electrical circuits 1 of students at the 1st year diploma vocational certificate in the field of electrician kamphaengphet technical college, 2) Evaluate the efficiency of the experimental worksheets in the course of electrical circuits 1 of students at the 1st year diploma vocational certificate in the field of electrician kamphaengphet technical college, 3) compare the academic achievement between the experimental group and the control group who learned by using the experimental worksheet techniques in the course of electrical circuits 1 of students at the 1st year diploma vocational certificate in the field of electrician kamphaengphet technical college, and 4) Assess students satisfaction with learning by using the experimental worksheet techniques in the course of electrical circuits 1 of students at the 1st year diploma vocational certificate in the field of electrician kamphaengphet technical college. This study applied the principles of instructional design based on the ADDIE model, which consists of five steps: analysis, design, development, implementation and evaluation as the main concept in developing innovations. The sample group used in the research was 1st year diploma vocational certificate in the field of electrician kamphaengphet technical college, who registered for the subject Electrical Circuit 1 in the second semester of the academic year 2023, consisting of 2 groups, divided into an experimental group of 20 people and a control group of 20 people. The researcher used the cluster random sampling method by drawing lots to select the experimental and control groups, using the student group as the random unit, The experimental group was taught by the researcher. The research results found that : 1) The quality of the experimental worksheets for teaching Electrical Circuit 1, as assessed by experts, was at the highest vel level overall (=4.55, S.D.=0.52) and The evaluation of the experimental worksheets based on teacher opinions, as published in academic works, indicated a high overall quality level (=4.46, S.D.=0.46). 2) The efficiency of the teaching worksheets for Electrical Circuit 1, designed for both learning and practice, resulted in an average score of 82.60/84.25 percent, excecceding the set criterion of 80/80 percent. 3) The experimental group of students who learned using the experimental worksheet technique in Electrical Circuit 1 es achieved significantly higher academic scores than the control group, who were taught using traditional methods at .05. 4) Students who used the experimental worksheet technique in Electrical Circuit I reported the highest level of overall satisfaction (=4.58, S.D.=0.50).
