THE DEVELOPMENT OF PROBLEM SOLVING SKILL FOR PROFESSIONAL TEACHING STUDENTS THROUGH THE SIMULATION METHOD

Abstract

This research was aimed: 1) to study developed result of problem solving skill of professional teaching student through simulation compared to 70 percentage criteria 2) to study developed result of problem solving skill of professional teaching student through pre-test and post-test simulation 3) to study attitude of student learning through simulation. Through the random sampling, 30 first year undergraduate students in 1st semester, 2021 academic year were drawn for the study. Research tools are 1) activity learning simulated plan, 2) solving problem skill test, 3) attitude questionnaire towards learning management through simulation. Data gathering during pretest-posttest were then analyzed by percentage, average, standard deviation and t-test. The results found that 1) students’ post-test score equaled 70 % criterion which was statistical significance at α .01 were the average score was 25.93, 2) students’ problem solving posttest score was higher than pretest at α .01 statistical significance and 3) students’ satisfaction was at the highest level with 4.56 average ( = 4.56)
