Abstract

        This research aimed to 1) compare the learning achievement of Matthayomsuksa 1 students in reading comprehension before and after learning through the SQ4R technique applied with questioning, 2) compare the learning achievement in reading comprehension of Matthayomsuksa 1 students who learned through the SQ4R technique applied with questioning with the criterion of 80%, and 3) examine the satisfaction of Matthayomsuksa 1 students towards learning through the SQ4R technique applied with questioning. The sample of the study consisted of 40 students from Matthayomsuksa 1/5 at Krasangpittayakom School, Krasang District, Buriram Province, during the second semester of the 2023 academic year, selected using cluster random sampling.

The statistics used for data analysis were percentage, mean, standard deviation, dependent sample t-test, and one-sample t-test.

          The research findings revealed that 1) the learning achievement of Matthayomsuksa 1 students in reading comprehension after learning through the SQ4R technique applied with questioning was significantly higher than before learning at the .05 level, 2) the learning achievement in reading comprehension of Matthayomsuksa 1 students who learned through the SQ4R technique applied with questioning was significantly higher than the 80% criterion at the .05 level, and 3) the overall satisfaction of Matthayomsuksa 1 students towards learning through the SQ4R technique applied with questioning was at the highest level.
