Abstract

The purposes of this research were to 1) study the science process skills of basic chemistry laboratory, and 2) compare science process skills before and after using constructionism learning theory for mathayom suksa 2 students. The sample of this research were 25 students, who interested in choosing a course of basic chemistry laboratory in 1st semester, 2021, by purposive sampling. Research tools were 1) lesson plan using constructionism theory of basic chemistry laboratory, 2) multiple choice of integrated science process skills tests and created scoring rubric. The statistics used for data analysis were mean, standard deviation, percentage and t-test for dependent sample.


The results showed that 1) effects of science process skills after learning by using constructionism theory had the high level at overall 93.8%. The learners to develop science process skills had the highest improvements in 3 orders as follows: experimenting, model-based learning and identifying and controlling variable, respectively. And 2) the comparison of the science process skills of post-test were higher than those of pre-test differences at the statistically significant level of 0.01, the score post-test was higher than the score pre-test.
