The Results of Instruction Model Using the Demonstration Method of Algorithm on Practice Skills and Learning Achievement of Secondary Grade 4 Students -

Abstract

The objectives of this research were to compare the students' practical skills, by instruction model using the demonstration method. To compare students' learning achievement by learning management using the demonstration method. In addition, to study the students' satisfaction toward learning management using the demonstration method. The samples were 24 students using cluster random sampling by the classroom as a random unit from 6 classrooms. The research instruments were consisted of 1) There were 4 lesson plan demonstration method of conceptual modeling algorithms 2) The test of learning achievement, which is a multiple choice test with 4 options and 30 items. 3) The questionnaire of satisfaction of secondary grade 4 students consisted of knowledge and usage teaching techniques measurement and evaluation. The statistics used in the study were mean, standard deviation and t-test.

The finding revealed that.

1) Practical skills of secondary grade 4 students through instruction model using the demonstration method were higher significantly at .01.

2) Learning Achievement of secondary grade 4 students through instruction model using the demonstration method were higher significantly at .01.

3) Satisfaction of secondary grade 4 students through instruction model using the demonstration method were at the high level ( = 4.13)

Suggestion for next research, this research can be applied in the study of programming languages in the lower or higher education to enhance the learner’s practical skill to write the algorithm and it can be applied in the study of Sciences and Mathematics to enhance problem solving skills.
