EFFECT OF PRODUCTIVITY LEARNING MANAGEMENT ON SCIENCE COMMUNICATIVE ABILITY OF SIXTH GRADE STUDENTS

Abstract

The objectives of this research were to 1) compare the science communicative ability of sixth-grade students before and after learning through productivity learning management and 2) compare the science communicative ability of sixth grade students after learning through productivity learning management with the criterion of 70 percent of the full marks. The sample used in this research consisted of 24 sixth-grade students who studied in the first semester of the academic year 2023 at Watlakkaew School under Angthong Primary Educational Service Area Office. They were derived by using multi-stage random sampling. The research instruments were 1) 12 lesson plans with 24 hours for productivity learning management using the astronomy and space technology which had the appropriate level at the highest level (M = 4.47, S.D. = 1.29) 2) a science communicative ability evaluation form on the astronomy and space technology which consisted of 2 sections; 2.1 a science communicative speaking ability evaluation form on the astronomy and space technology with a reliability of 0.97 and 2.2 a science communicative writing ability evaluation form on the astronomy and space technology with a reliability of 0.96, The statistics used for the data analysis were 1) mean 2) standard deviation and 3) t-test.
The research findings were as follows: 1) The science communicative ability of sixth-grade students after learning through productivity learning management was higher than before learning at a statistically significant level of .05. 2) The science communicative abilities of the sixth-grade students after learning through productivity learning management was higher than the criterion of 70 percent of the full marks at a statistically significant level of .05.
