บทคัดย่อ

This study aimed to: 1) compare the collaborative skills of second-year vocational students before and after learning management using the traditional teaching method; 2) compare the collaborative skills of second-year vocational students before and after learning management using team-based learning collaboration combined with gamification; and 3) compare the collaborative skills of second-year vocational students between learning management using team-based learning collaboration combined with gamification and the traditional teaching method. The sample consisted of 80 second-year vocational students from 2 classrooms at a college in China, selected through cluster random sampling. The instruments for data collection included lesson plans for the traditional teaching method, lesson plans for team-based learning collaboration combined with gamification, and an assessment of collaborative skills. The data were analyzed using mean, standard deviation, independent-samples t-test, and dependent-samples t-test, along with descriptive statistics and content analysis. The results of the study indicated that: 1) the collaborative skills of second-year vocational students after learning management using the traditional teaching method were significantly higher than those before learning at the statistical significance level of .05; 2) the collaborative skills of second-year vocational students after learning management using team-based learning collaboration combined with gamification were significantly higher than those before learning at the statistical significance level of .05; and 3) the collaborative skills of second-year vocational students after learning management using team-based learning collaboration combined with gamification were significantly higher than those after learning management using the traditional teaching method at the statistical significance level of .05.
