RESULTS USING LEARNING CENTER TEACHING PACKAGES ON PLANTS AND AINMALS IN STRAND 1 BIOLOGICAL SCIENCE OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY FOR GRADE 4 STUDENTS

Abstract

The purposes of this research were to; 1)  find the learning centre teaching packages on plants and animals in strand one biological science of science and technology for Grade 4 students according to 80/80 criteria and 2) to compare Grade 4 students’ academic achievement using learning centre teaching packages on plants and animals between pre-learning and post-learning. The sample used in this research consisted of 25 Grade 4 students of Nakkham School in the first semester of the academic year 2020, gaining from random cluster sampling by classrooms as random units. The research instruments included 1) learning centre teaching packages, 2) learning management plans in conjunction with using a learning centre teaching package and 3) a learning achievement test. Statistics used for data analysis were mean, percentage, standard deviation and t-test dependent samples.

             The research results could be summarized as follows:

1. The learning centre teaching packages on plants and animals in strand one of biological science of science and technology for Grade 4 students had an efficiency of 86.56/87.20, higher than the appointed criteria.


2. The academic achievement about strand 1, biological science on plants and animals, using a learning centre teaching package of Grade 4 students showed that post-learning was higher than pre-learning with statistically significant at the .01 level.
