Abstract

The purposes of this research were to: 1) develop flipped classroom learning activities on Law and Life for Grade 10 students with an efficiency level of 80/80; 2) compare the learning achievement of students who participated in the flipped classroom learning activities with that of students who received traditional instruction; 3) examine the level of the desirable characteristic of being eager to learn among students who participated in the flipped classroom learning activities; and 4) investigate students’ satisfaction with the flipped classroom learning activities. The sample consisted of Grade 10/3 students, who served as the experimental group, and Grade 10/5 students, who served as the control group, at Srimahaphot School, Si Maha Phot District, Prachin Buri Province. The research instruments included: 1) 10 lesson plans; 2) a learning achievement test; 3) a scale measuring the desirable characteristic of being eager to learn; and 4) a satisfaction questionnaire. The data were analyzed using percentage, mean, standard deviation, and an independent-samples t-test.

The results revealed that: 1) the flipped classroom learning activities on Law and Life for Grade 10 students achieved an efficiency level of 86.55/81.05, which met the specified criterion; 2) students who participated in the flipped classroom learning activities had significantly higher learning achievement than students who received traditional instruction at the .05 level of statistical significance; 3) students who participated in the flipped classroom learning activities obtained an average score equivalent to 79.01% of the total score on the desirable characteristic of being eager to learn, which was at the excellent level; and 4) the students’ overall satisfaction with the flipped classroom learning activities was at a high level.
