A Development of Learning Activity Through Concept-Oriented Reading Instruction Combined with Infographicto Enhance Crittical Reading Ability for Matthayomsuksa 3 Students

Abstract

          The purpose of this research was twofold: 1) to construct and assess the efficiency of a learning activity through concept-oriented reading instructions combined with inphographic, using a criterion of 80/80, and 2) to implement and study the outcomes of this learning activity by comparing the critical reading ability of students before and after the activity. The study followed a research and development process in two steps: 1) involved constructing and assessing the effectiveness of the learning activity. The activity was certified by five experts and tried out with three students to assess the efficiency. 2) involved implementing and studying the outcomes of the learning activity. The sample group was 22 students of Matthayomsuksa 3. The research tool included 1) The learning activity 2) The field note 3) critical reading ability test. The data were analyzed by mean scores ( ), standard deviation (S.D.) and effectiveness equal (E1/E2). The results of the study revealed that: 1) The learning activity involved four steps. The activity was of appropriate quality with the highest level of effectiveness at 81.48/80.37. 2) Critical reading ability in the posttest was higher than in the pretest with a statistical level of .01.
