Abstract

The purposes of this research were to: 1) investigate the analytical thinking ability of Matthayomsuksa 1 students using phenomenon-based learning; 2) develop the analytical thinking ability of Matthayomsuksa 1 students using phenomenon-based learning so that at least 70 percent of them satisfy the 70 percent requirement; and 3) examine the perceptions of Matthayomsuksa 1 students towards phenomenon-based learning. The target group was comprised of 36 students in Matthayomsuksa 1, Class 9, at Watklang Municipal School during the first semester of the academic year 2022, which was obtained by purposive sampling.
The research tools were: 1) 6 phenomenon-based lesson plans for 6 hours; 2) teacher post-lesson reflection forms; 3) post-cycle analytical thinking ability assessment tests; 4) an analytical thinking ability assessment test; and 5) a questionnaire of students’ perceptions towards phenomenon-based learning. The quantitative data were analyzed using percentage, mean, and standard deviation. The qualitative data were analyzed using content analysis.


The results revealed that: 1) the analytical thinking ability of students using phenomenon-based learning obtained a mean score of 19.25 out of 30, which equated to 64.17 percent; 2) 27 students using phenomenon-based learning, which equated to 75 percent, satisfied the analytical thinking ability requirement of 70 percent; 3) the students expressed the highest level of agreement on their overall perceptions of phenomenon-based learning.
