Innovation to Develop Problematic Reding of Basic Words of Prathom Suksa 1

Abstract

The objectives of this research are: 1. to develop basic word reading innovations for the first-year primary school students to be effective according to the 80/80 criterion; 2. to compare the basic word reading achievements of the first-year primary school students before and after the study. The sample group consisted of the first-year primary school students at Ban Khok Muang School, Si Suk Subdistrict, Si Chomphu District, Khon Kaen Province, under the Office of Khon Kaen Primary Educational Service Area 5, Semester 2, 2023. The sample included 10 students from 1 classroom. The research tools were:  1. a learning plan for reading basic words for the first-year primary school, consisting of 10 plans, with a teaching time of 1 hour per plan; 2. basic word reading exercises for the first-year primary school, created by the researcher, to practice basic word reading skills, comprising 10 sets; 3. tests to measure learning achievement in reading basic Thai words, with a test consisting of 30 questions, from which 20 questions were selected for actual use. The researcher analyzed the data as follows:  1. basic statistics, such as mean, percentage, and standard deviation of scores obtained from the content subtest, group work behavior, and achievement test to study the learning to read basic words; 2. the effectiveness of the learning plan for developing basic word reading abilities of the first-year primary school students according to the 80/80 criterion, using the formula to find E1/E2 values; 3. the efficiency index of the learning plan for developing students' basic word reading abilities of the first-year primary school, using the formula to find the E.I value;  4. comparative analysis of test scores before and after the study using a t-test (Dependent Samples). The research results were as follows: 1. The plan for organizing basic word reading learning activities using basic word practice showed an efficiency of 81.76/88, higher than the set 80/80 threshold. 2. The first-year primary school students who studied using basic word reading exercises achieved higher academic performance after learning than before learning, with statistical significance at the .05 level.
