The Development of Mathematical Problem-solving Ability on Probability Using the Cooperative Learning Technique TAI Combined with Metacognition Process for Matthayomsuksa 3 Students of the Demonstration School of Muban Chombueng Rajabhat University

Abstract

The research objectives are to: 1) compare the student’s achievements before and after learning by the cooperative learning technique TAI combined with metacognition process 2) compare the student’s achievements after learning by the cooperative learning technique TAI combined with metacognition process with 70 percent criterion 3) compare the student’s problem-solving abilities after learning by the cooperative learning technique TAI combined with metacognition process with 70 percent criterion and 4) study the satisfaction of the students towards the cooperative learning technique TAI combined with metacognition process. The research design is quasi-experimental research. The sample group is the 23 ninth-grade students at the Demonstration School of Muban Chombueng Rajabhat University, derived by simple random sampling. The research instruments are: 1) an ability test on problem-solving ability 2) an achievement test 3) lesson plans and 4) a satisfaction form. The statistics used for analyzing data are: percentage, mean, standard deviation, t-test for one sample and t-test for dependent samples. The results show that: 1) after the intervention, students had significantly higher academic achievement than before the intervention at the .05 statistical significance level. 2) after learning, the students have learning achievements higher than 70 percent criterion with statistical significance at .05 3) after learning, the students have problem-solving abilities higher than 70 percent criterion with statistical significance at .05 and 4) Students expressed the highest level of satisfaction with the cooperative learning approach using the TAI technique combined with metacognition processes.
