Development of Learning Achievements in Science on the Topic of the Sun and the Earth by Using Inquiry-Based Learning Management (5Es) with POE Techniques for Grade 3 Students

Abstract

          This research aimed to: (1) compare the learning achievement of grade 3 students in science on the Sun and Earth before and after by using inquiry-based learning management with  the POE technique (2) compare the learning achievement of grade 3 students in science on the Sun and Earth after using inquiry-based learning management with the POE technique with the criterion of 70 percent of the full score, and  (3) evaluate the development of science learning achievement on  the Sun and Earth of grade 3 students after using inquiry-based learning management with the POE technique. The samples used in this research were 38 grade 3 students at Pathum Thani province. The research instruments were (1) The learning management plan utilizes the inquiry-based learning management with the POE technique and (2) The Science Achievement Test. Data were analyzed using means, standard deviation, and t – test for dependent samples. The results showed that 1) The learning achievement of students in science after using the inquiry-based learning management with the POE technique was higher than before using the same approach at a statistical significance level of 0.05. 2) The post-learning scores of students who utilized the inquiry-based learning management with the POE technique was 79.70%, which is higher than the set standard of 70% at a statistical significance level of 0.05. and 3) The relative development scores in science of students, overall averaged at the high level.
