Abstract

The objectives of this research were to 1) study the context, needs, in enhancing mathematics concepts of students with academic achievement, 2) develop a learning management process using mathematics stories based on Vygotsky’s theory that with scaffolding to enhance mathematics concepts, and 3) evaluate the use of the learning management process developed. The samples wear of 120 Mathayom Suksa 3 students is obtained from cluster random sampling. Data analysis using protocol analysis (Task Analysis) and analytical lectures (Analytic Description) from the mathematical concept test. Statistics used in the research were frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, and Independent t-test, Dependent t-test. 


The research results showed that: 1) The study of context, needs, in enhancing mathematical concepts of students with low achievement were concepts in, content of number and operation, measurements, and geometry. 2) Learning management process using mathematics stories based on Vygotsky’s learning with scaffolding to enhance mathematics concepts of students with low achievement, consisting of 5 steps and 3) mathematics concepts of students learning by learning management process using mathematics stories based on Vygotsky’s learning theory with scaffolding and students learning by the traditional method were different with statistical significance at the level of .05.
