The Study of Mathematics Learning Achievements of Grade 11 Students on the Basic Counting Principles by Using Active Learning

Abstract

           This research aimed to 1) compare mathematics learning achievement on the subject of basic counting principles for grade 11 students before and after active learning, 2) compare mathematics learning achievement on the subject of basic counting principles for grade 11 students after receiving active learning with the criteria of 70 percent, and 3) study student satisfaction with active learning on the subject of basic counting principles for grade 11 students. This is a quasi-experimental (one group pre-posttest design) with a sample group was grade 11 students at Wat Phra Si Mahathat Demonstration School, Phranakhon Rajabhat University, Semester 2, Academic Year 2023, which was obtained from simple random sampling. The research instruments include 1) active learning plans, 2) a mathematics learning achievement test, and 3) an active learning satisfaction questionnaire. The data were analyzed by using descriptive statistics and t-tests.
          Results showed that 1) mathematics learning achievement on the subject of basic counting principles for grade 11 students had an average score of 16.09 points, statistically significantly higher than before receiving active learning at the 0.05 level, 2) mathematics learning achievement on the subject of basic counting principles for grade 11 students after receiving active learning, the average score was 16.09 points, accounting for 80.45 percent, higher than the standard set at 70 percent with statistical significance at the 0.05 level, and 3) overall active learning satisfaction on the subject of basic counting principles for grade 11 students had an average score of 3.94, which is a high level.
