Main Article Content
Abstract
This research aimed to study (1) the current conditions and problems of learning management aimed at enhancing analytical thinking skills of Matthayomsuksa 1 students in Social Studies, Religion, and Culture (Buddhist Studies strand), and (2) to develop phenomenon-based learning through the process of creating short cartoons entitled “Buddha dhamma and Life in the Digital Age” to promote analytical thinking skills. The research is a qualitative study employing an action research design. The sample in the first phase consisted of 329 Matthayomsuksa 1 students in Mueang Phitsanulok District. The target group in the second phase was one Matthayomsuksa 1 classroom at Naresuan University Demonstration School. They were selected by purposive sampling. The instrument for collecting data was lesson plans, questionnaires, in-depth interviews, field notes, and analytical thinking assessment forms. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Content Analysis. The research results were found as follows;
1) The current learning management practices mainly emphasized knowledge transmission and memorization, which resulted in students’ limited analytical thinking skills and their inability to effectively connect Buddhist principles with daily life. 2) Phenomenon-based learning through the short cartoon creation process significantly increased students’ learning interest, encouraged active participation, and clearly enhanced their analytical thinking skills. Students were able to analyze problems, interpret phenomena in the digital era, and appropriately apply Buddhist principles to their daily lives.
