Development of Instructional Packages in Topic of Real Number to Develop Skills and Mathematical Processes by using the MIAP Process for Grade 10 Students

Abstract

The objectives of this research were 1) to develop the instructional package in the topic of real numbers in order to develop the mathematic skills and processes using MIAP process for grade 10 students to meet the 75/75 criteria, 2) to investigate mathematic skills and process of the grade 10 students after using the real numbers instructional package using MIAP process, and 3) to investigate the mathematics achievement of the grade 10 students after learning in topic of real numbers by using proposed instructional packages for develop mathematic skill and process using MIAP process compared with 75/75 criteria. The samples were 33 students from Jaruspichakorn School in the second semester of 2016 academic year who were obtained by cluster sampling technique. The sampling unit was the classroom. The research instruments were 1) the MIAP process instructional package in topic of real numbers and 2) the test on real numbers consisted of 30 multiple choice questions with four alternatives with reliability of 0.71, and four quizzes on mathematic skills and process with reliability of 0.73. The statistics used in analyzing the data were means, standard deviation, and one sample t-test. The results were as follow; 1. The efficiency of the instructional package in topic of real numbers for developing mathematics skill and process using MIAP process for grade 10 students was 78.79/77.13 which is higher than standard. 2. According to the grade 10 student’s test scores on mathematic skills and process after learning by using the proposed instructional package, 70 percent of them got significantly higher score than the set criteria at 0.05 level of significance. 3. The learning achievements of the grade 10 students after using the instructional package activities were significantly higher than the 75/75 criteria at p < 0.05.
