Abstract
The purposes of this research were as follows: 1) to develop learning innovations for the Science and Technology for Life course, using the Engineering Design Process and the NPU Teaching and Learning Paradigm; 2) to compare the students’ achievement before and after being taught by the learning innovation 3) to study the students’ skills in Engineering Design Process, and 4) to study the students’ opinions toward instruction based on the learning innovation. Simple random sampling was used to select 30 bachelor’s degree students enrolled in Science and Technology for Life, a General Education subject, at the University of Nakhon Phanom in the first semester of the 2020 academic year. Research instruments were an instruction plan, achievement tests, and a questionnaire. The obtained data were analyzed using mean, standard deviation, and dependent t-test.
The research result were to the following conclusions; 1) the innovations developed include an instruction plan, which has proven to be effective, according to the 75/75 requirement, scoring 79.48/77.93 on the E1/E2 efficiency assessment, 2) The students’ achievement after instruction show a statistically significantly higher than before at the 0.01 level and 3) the students’ opinions were at the “strongly agree” level.
