Developing Learning Achievement through Inquiry-Based Learning Management (5Es) on Problem Solving with the Engineering Design Process for Mathayom Suksa 2 students

Abstract

The purposes of this research article were 1) to study the necessary needs of students; 2) to compare the learning achievement of students before and after studying by organizing inquiry-based learning (5Es) on problem solving with the engineering design process; and 3) to study student satisfaction with learning by organizing inquiry-based learning (5Es) on problem solving with the engineering design process. It was a qualitative research. The sample group used in the research included Mathayom Suksa 2/2 and 2/3 students at Narirat School, Phrae Province, totaling 72 students by purposive sampling. The tools used in the research were  1) a questionnaire on necessary needs for developing learning achievement, 2) a learning management plan using inquiry-based learning (5Es), a total of 5 learning plans, 3) a questionnaire assessing student satisfaction towards learning management through inquiry-based learning (5Es) on problem solving with the engineering design process. Statistics used in the research were t-test for Dependent, mean and standard deviation. The results of the research found that 1) from observing teaching and learning behavior in the subject of Design and Technology 2 on solving problems with the engineering design process, it was found that the teaching format was desired to be interesting. There were learning activities that students can actually practice; 2) students had higher learning achievement after studying than before with statistical significance at the .01 level; and 3) students were satisfied with the learning management using inquiry-based learning (5Es) on problem solving with the engineering design process, overall, satisfaction was at the highest level, divided into 3 areas, namely the role of teachers aspect had an average of = 4.7302, S.D.= .37801, aspect of student roles had an average of = 4.6548, S.D.= .48534 and learning activities aspect had an average of = 4.7480, S.D.= .44566.
