THE LEARNING MANAGEMENT USING GEOGRAPHIC PROCESSES FRO JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS AT PHRAPARIYATTIDHAMMA SCHOOL GENERAL EDUCATION DEPARTMENT CHAIYAPHUM PROVINCE

Abstract

        This research aimed to: 1. study the conditions of learning management; 2. compare the academic achievement of students; 3. examine the satisfaction with learning management using geographic processes among junior high school students at Phrapariyattidhamma School, General Education Department, Chaiyaphum Province. A total of 25 students were selected using simple random sampling, with the classroom as the random unit. An experimental research model was used: True Control Group Pretest-Posttest Design. The statistics used for data analysis included percentage, mean, standard deviation, and hypothesis testing (t-test, dependent samples).

        The research results were as follows:

1. The learning management conditions for junior high school students at Phrapariyattidhamma School, General Education Department, Chaiyaphum Province, were overall at a high level ( = 3.85, S.D. = 0.50). When categorized into different aspects, the results were as follows: the teaching staff aspect was at a high level ( = 4.49, S.D. = 0.60), the teaching management aspect was at a high level ( = 4.19, S.D. = 0.97), but the learning management aspect was at a low level ( = 2.40, S.D. = 0.46).
2. Academic achievement improved after studying. Testing the difference between mean scores before and after studying showed that the mean scores after studying were significantly higher, with statistical significance at the 0.05 level.
3. Satisfaction with learning management using geographic processes for the first-year secondary school students at Phrapariyattidhamma School, General Education Department, Chaiyaphum Province, was overall at a very satisfied level ( = 4.34, S.D. = 0.69).
