COMPUTING SCIENCE SKILL DEVELOPMENT USING CREATIVE GAME ACTIVITY OF GRADUATE STUDENTS FACULTY OF EDUCATION, BANGKOKTHONBURI UNIVERSITY

Abstract

The purpose of this research is 1) to find the efficiency of a set of creative game activities to develop computational science learning skills of graduate students, Faculty of Education, Bangkok thonburi University and 2) to compare the computational science learning skills of graduate students, Faculty of Education, Bangkokthonburi University that was taught using a set of creative game activities with normal teaching. The sample group used in this research was graduate students, Faculty of Education, Bangkokthonburi University, Semester 2, Academic Year 2022, 3classrooms by opening tables of Craigie and Morgan, total 108 people for being an experimental room for finding the efficiency of the creative game activity set, 1classroom for teaching and learning using the creative game activity set, and a control room that teaches using normal teaching methods. Research tools are  a set of creative game activities to develop computational science skills, a computational science learning skills exercises, The index of the correspondence of the questions to the objectives was equal to 1 for all items and the computational science learning skill test of graduate students, Faculty of Education Bangkokthonburi University has a confidence level of 0.85. The statistics used in data analysis were percentage, mean, standard deviation and the value test (t-test).

The results showed that :

1. The efficiency of the creative game activity package for developing computational science learning skills of graduate students, Faculty of Education, Bangkokthonburi University. The developed efficiency was 82.01/90.00, higher than the specified criteria of 80/80.

2. Graduate students,Faculty of Education, Bangkokthonburi University That has been taught by a series of creative game activities to develop computational science learningskills.The computational learning skills were higher than the students who received normal teaching at the statistical significance level of .01.
