DEVELOPMENT OF PRIMARY SCHOOL STUDENTS’ ENGLISH SENTENCE CONSTRUCTION THROUGH PICTURE WORD INDUCTIVE MODEL (PWIM) AND LINE APPLICATION

2023-08-21T17:36:56+07:00

This study investigated the impact of the Picture Word Inductive Model (PWIM) combined with the LINE app (a short form of application) on Thai primary school students' English sentence construction performance. A mixed-mode approach with a one-group pretest-posttest design was employed, involving a class of 30 students selected randomly from four Grade 4 classes. The study assessed improvements in sentence construction, students' perceptions post-intervention, the correlation between their sentence construction performance and perceptions, and their learning experiences from the intervention. Instruments used were a pre- and post-test, a perception questionnaire, observation fieldnotes, and semi-structured interviews. Results indicated a notable improvement in sentence construction post-intervention, with pre-test scores averaging 44.40 (S.D. = 20.284) and post-test scores averaging 64.83 (S.D. = 16.463). Students recognized the benefits of PWIM at the strongly agree level (average score: 4.622, S.D. = 0.273), though they rated the advantages of LINE app slightly lower (average score: 4.513, S.D. = 0.544). Nevertheless, students strongly agreed that the combined use of PWIM and LINE app was beneficial (average score: 4.564, S.D. = 0.138). No correlation was found between their construction abilities and perceptions. Qualitative findings highlighted the advantages, challenges, and unique experiences students had with the intervention.

OUT-OF-FIELD TEACHING: ENGLISH TEACHERS’ EXPERIENCES AND PRACTICES

2023-04-27T23:22:29+07:00

The quality of teachers is a contributing factor to success in any educational endeavor. It is therefore important to address specific concerns and provide appropriate professional development support, especially to teachers who are given teaching assignments outside of their field of specialization. This phenomenon is observed especially for those teaching in senior high school during the onset of the K to 12 curriculum implementation adding two years (senior high school) of basic education in the country. This study explores the out-of-field teaching experiences and practices of senior high school English teachers in selected public schools in Cebu province. This qualitative research utilized in-depth interviews in generating themes and describing the meaning of the experiences through the lenses of English teachers. The findings of the study highlighted their experiences in handling subjects outside their area of specialization; their teaching practices to cope with the lack of skills, strategies and content knowledge to handle these subjects; and the professional development learning activities afforded to them. Understanding the meaning of these experiences would help administrators effectively manage out-of-field teaching situations and provide relevant support strategies for these teachers. Moreover, district, division and regional personnel may consider the diverse out-of-field teachers’ learning needs in general while developing professional development programs.

FACTORS AFFECTING TECHNOLOGY USE IN TEACHING FUNCTIONS IN HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS: A REGRESSION ANALYSIS

2023-08-21T18:48:05+07:00

This study identifies the factors that affect teachers’ technology use in school-based, classroom-based, and class-based teaching functions. Through descriptive regression study, college teachers (N=536) from higher education institutions from Central and Western Visayas, Philippines, responded to standardized tools. Ten constructs were derived from these tools and subjected to regression analysis set at a 95% confidence level. Study findings revealed that the teachers have high extents of enabling factors, including resource use, design, and motivators. They promote and enhance technology integration in various teaching functions. However, deterring factors such as letting the teachers use reading resources and design multimedia resources consume their time and limit them from putting technology into work. Regression analysis showed that technology integration and intrinsic and extrinsic motivation significantly affect technology use, whereas use, design of some resources, and lack of self-reliance negatively impact technology use. In conclusion, technology is an essential component of higher education, which needs necessary support, motivation, and attitudes. As such, training is recommended for teachers to cope with these educational changes and provide a better learning experience.

RESEARCH ON THAI STUDENTS’ MISCONCEPTIONS IN MATHEMATICS: A SYSTEMATIC LITERATURE REVIEW

2023-08-21T18:32:48+07:00

Misconceptions have been determined as one of the most important barriers on students’ learning in mathematics. The purpose of this study is to investigate and review prior research studies on Thai students’ misconceptions in mathematics. The systematic literature review seeks to understand: (i) the distribution and amount of research, (ii) research foci, and (iii) methods for determining students’ misconceptions had been used during 2004 to 2022. Within the scope of the study, 56 articles were selected based on a set of criteria. Findings revealed that most of the studies investigated Grade 7–9 students’ misconceptions, while only one study explored on lower elementary levels. Numbers & algebra was the mathematical content strand given the most attention, while there was not much attention given on geometry. Five foci of research on students’ misconceptions in mathematics were categorized based on research objectives and results. It showed that most of the studies focused on determining students’ misconceptions in specific concepts, not for eliminating the misconceptions. Different diagnostic tests and methods were developed and used, e.g., open-ended tests, and interviews. The methods were employed in various ways to identify and enrich researchers’ understanding of students’ misconceptions.

ACADEMIC OUTREACH DURING COVID-19 LOCKDOWN AT A UNIVERSITY LEVEL: USING MOOC AS A STRATREGY

2023-08-08T15:25:14+07:00

The objectives of this research were twofold: 1) to develop an online course on Thai culture as a substitute for physical international inbound student mobility during the COVID-19 pandemic and 2) to implement and assess the online course in terms of media quality, content, and the knowledge and experience gained by the students who participated in the course. This research was an experimental development research consisting of two parts. The first part involved course development, where the researcher created a course curriculum encompassing the rationale, course objectives, learning objectives, and a course description. This curriculum was utilized as a research instrument, with the results reported in a narrative format. The second part focused on course implementation and assessment. The population in this part consisted of students who enrolled in the course. The data were gathered from the overall population. Nevertheless, since course assessment participation was voluntary, this study's informants consisted solely of students who both completed the course and submitted the online assessment form. In turn, a total of 235 foreign students, majority from ASEAN countries responded to the course assessment. The data gathered during this phase were quantitative and subjected to analysis using descriptive statistics including frequency, percentage, mean, and standard deviation. The findings revealed the successful development of an online course, in the form of Massive Online Open Course (MOOC), titled “Business Etiquette in Thailand”. The respondents consistently rated the media quality, content, and knowledge and experience gained as highly satisfactory with most responses indicating “strongly agree” for all components. The most frequently mentioned comment regarding the course was its quality and interesting nature, while the primary suggestion was to offer more courses of a similar nature. The findings of this study contribute to the ongoing exploration of alternative modes of intercultural learning during challenging circumstances for providing to inbound students.

2023-06-11T17:52:09+07:00

This study examined and compared the research capability of senior high school students as assessed by their teachers and as self-assessed by the students themselves. The purpose of this study is to assess the level of agreement or discrepancy between the teacher evaluations and student self-assessments regarding the research capabilities of senior high school students in terms of the research background, problem and hypothesis, research design and methods, and report research. A descriptive research design was utilized using a researcher-made survey questionnaire that undergone validity and reliability. Data was gathered from 277 students and 20 teachers in public schools. Gathered data were systematically treated and analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Results revealed that the research capability of senior high students is generally less competent. There was no statistically significant difference in the assessment between students and teachers, which suggests that teachers' evaluation of their students' research capability coincides with the students' self-assessment.

ASSESSING THE EFFECTIVENESS OF METACOGNITIVE SCAFFOLDING IN ENHANCING LEARNERS' AGENCY AND AUTONOMY IN NIGERIAN SECONDARY SCHOOLS

2023-08-21T18:17:30+07:00

Metacognition is the process of thinking about one's own thinking. It involves awareness of one's own cognitive processes, such as planning, monitoring, and evaluating one's own learning. Agency is the ability to act independently and make one's own choices. Autonomy is the ability to self-govern and be self-directed. Metacognitive scaffolding can help to enhance learners' agency and autonomy by providing them with the tools and support they need to take control of their own learning. This study investigated the effectiveness of metacognitive scaffolding in enhancing learners' agency and autonomy in secondary students in Nigeria. The study involved an intact group of 100 students in senior secondary class Two selected through a simple random technique. The students were randomly assigned to either the treatment group or the control group with each having 61 and 39 students respectively. The treatment group received metacognitive scaffolding in the form of think-alouds, self-monitoring, and self-assessment. Test –retest method was used to assess the students. The instruments were administered first before the administration of the treatment, while it was readministered six weeks after the treatment. The students in the treatment group were taught how to use metacognitive strategies to improve their learning, while the control group did not receive any metacognitive scaffolding. The results of the study showed that the experimental group, which received metacognitive scaffolding, outperformed the control group on measures of agency and autonomy. The findings of this study suggest that metacognitive scaffolding is an effective way to enhance learners' agency and autonomy.

A STUDY OF BHATIA’S MOVES AND LINGUISTIC FEATURES IN ENGLISH ABSTRACTS OF TCI-2 RESEARCH ARTICLES ON INDUSTRIAL EDUCATION

2023-12-13T14:11:59+07:00

Writing research article (RA) abstracts in English is a frightful responsibility for nonnative researchers. It also situates much difficulty on them when they have to publish the papers in English. The objectives of this study were to identify Bhatia’s (1993) four moves of Purpose, Method, Result, Conclusion in English Abstracts of Thai-Journal Citation Index Tier 2 (TCI-2) research articles on Industrial Education (IE), and to investigate the linguistic features (Tenses, Voice, and That-complement) written inside RA abstracts based on the same corpus. The data consisted of thirty English RA abstracts in Industrial Education published under the list of Thai-Journal Citation Index Tier 2 (TCI-2) journals during 2018-2020 by the university instructors across Thailand. The four-move framework was adopted to analyze 30 abstracts written by Thai researchers on Industrial Education field in this study. The results demonstrated that Result (R) was only the obligatory move in the corpus, whereas, Purpose (P) and Method (M) moves were conventional. Regarding linguistic features of the moves, Past tense in the Active voice form was the preferred choice of selection by the researchers to describe Purpose, Method, and Result moves within the English abstracts of the corpus. Present tense, and Passive voice were infrequently used, but there was no evidence of Perfect tense used in the present study. That-complement clauses were the outstanding form in the Result move of the abstracts when compared to others. These findings indicate the need for a further development on English RA abstracts training courses in academic writing with the aim to increase writers’ understanding of a standardized structure and English RA abstracts linguistic features linked to their abstract writing.

EFFECTS OF GRAPHIC ORGANIZERS ON VOCABULARY ACQUISITION, READING PERFORMANCE, AND ENGLISH LEARNING ATTITUDE OF GRADE 8 STUDENTS

2023-07-03T17:37:10+07:00

The outward display of learners’ struggles in advancing their literacy performance has been a grey spot in the pedagogical spectrum. Previous investigations emphasize that such difficulty is anchored by learners’ inefficient vocabulary, reading performance, English learning attitude, and unemployment of interactive instructional strategies. This quasi-experimental study investigated the effect of graphic organizers (GOs) on vocabulary acquisition (VA), reading performance (RP), and English-learning Attitude (ELA). Two sections of grade 8 learners of a public school in Isabela, Philippines were randomly selected to serve as the control group and experimental group of the study. In a span of one month, the control group (n = 33) employed a conventional strategy in learning while the experimental group (n = 34) applied GOs. Pre and post-assessments of their Vocabulary Acquisition, Reading Performance, and English Learning Attitude were administered. The data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. A paired samples t-test revealed that the control group did not exhibit a significant increase in VA, RP, and ELA from pretest to posttest. Conversely, the experimental group demonstrated a noteworthy increase in VA, RP, and ELA between the pretest and posttest assessments. Analysis of covariance showed that the experimental group outperformed the control group in all the variables. The employment of GOs provided the respondents with substantial assistance in improving their VA, RP, and ELA, highly suggesting the use of GOs in instruction.

CRITICAL THINKING SKILLS AND DISPOSITIONS: PERCEPTIONS OF HIGHER EDUCATION STUDENTS IN THAILAND

2023-12-16T08:49:57+07:00

This study explores the perceptions of critical thinking skills and dispositions among higher education students in Thailand. A sample of 400 students from four international programs across four universities representing different regions in Thailand participated in this research. The study aimed to assess whether students understand the importance of critical thinking skills in their daily lives, whether they can identify critical thinking skills and dispositions, and whether there are differences in perceptions based on gender, field of study, or institution. The findings reveal that students in Thailand generally recognize the significance of critical thinking skills, with a mean score of 79.45%, indicating a solid understanding of their importance. However, their understanding of critical thinking dispositions is somewhat lower, as reflected in a mean score of 58%. Furthermore, students’ ability to identify specific critical thinking skills and dispositions is modest, with a mean score of 51%, suggesting a gap between recognizing the importance and practical application. Interestingly, the study did not find significant differences in perceptions based on gender, field of study, or institution, indicating a consistent understanding of critical thinking skills and dispositions among the sampled students. These findings underscore the importance of integrating explicit instruction on critical thinking skills and dispositions into the curriculum to bridge the gap between recognizing their significance and applying them effectively. By doing so, higher education institutions in Thailand can better equip their students with the essential skills and attitudes needed for success in the 21st century. This research contributes to the ongoing discourse on critical thinking in higher education and provides valuable insights for curriculum development and educational practice in Thailand and beyond.

IMPROVING 11 GRADE STUDENTS’ SCIENTIFIC EXPLANATION IN RELATIONSHIPS AMONG VOLUME, PRESSURE, TEMPERATURE, AND AMOUNT OF GAS THROUGH THINKING FRAME APPROACH

2023-08-07T00:02:34+07:00

A scientific explanation of phenomena should show the causes and mechanisms that occur, along with the identification of the causal relationships and interactions under which the phenomenon happens through description, interpretation, and causal mechanism. The thinking frame approach is one of the instructional strategies designed to support the written scientific explanation. The purpose of this research was to investigate and compare students' scientific explanations of the relationship between volume, pressure, temperature, and amount of gas learned through the thinking frame approach. Participants were 28 grade 11 students. The scientific explanation test was administered to them before and after implementation of the thinking frame approach and a semi-structured interview after learning. A statistical method, paired samples t-test, was also employed to process students' scientific explanations in the pre- and post-tests. The results revealed that the vast majority of students , 40.18%, wrote their scientific explanations at the non-explanation level in the pre-test. Students often express alternative conceptions to explain the relationship among volume, pressure, and temperature of gas. However, after learning with the thinking frame approach, it was found that most students, 33.03%, improved their written scientific explanation at the associative explanation level and the complex explanation level. Students applied scientific theory to illustrate phenomena and imagine gas changes that cannot be seen with the naked eye, then used them to identify the occurring causes and mechanisms. In addition, the statistical analysis indicated that there was an improvement of students' scientific explanation in the pre- and the post-test significantly at the 0.05 level. Those results suggest that the thinking frame approach can help students explain the causal and mechanism of the phenomenon involving gas properties to be more rationale.
