A Study of the Results of Using a Learning Activity Package on our Atmosphere Unit for the Development of Science Subject Learning in Students in Community Schools : A Case Study of Ban Kad Witthayakhom School

Abstract

The research aimed to study the students' learning achievement in science subjects and the students' satisfaction with learning management by using the science learning activity package about our atmosphere unit with 7^th grade students. The research tools consisted of a learning activity package, a test, and a satisfaction assessment. The sample group used in the study were thirty-nine 7^th grade students at Ban Kad Wittayakom School, Mae Wang District, Chiang Mai Province, in the second semester of the academic year 2022. Statistics used in data analysis were mean, standard deviation, t-test (dependent samples), and percent progression. All research tools were expertly evaluated before being used. The evaluation results showed that the learning activity package was most appropriate (𝑥̅  = 4.26±0.17). After applying the device to the sample group, it was found that the mean score from the posttest  (𝑥̅  = 74.36±1.15) after using the learning activity package was significantly higher than the pretest (𝑥̅  = 30.26±0.76) at the significant level of 0.01. When considering the percentage of progress in learning, it was found that the value was 48.42, which was higher than 25%, indicating progress in learning. Overall, the students were satisfied with the learning management using the science learning activity package at the highest level (𝑥̅  = 4.27±0.70).
