The Development of Online Science Lessons Based On The Concept of Flipped Classroom on the Topic of “Thing Around Us” for Second-Grade Students

Abstract

The objectives of this research were: 1) to develop online science lessons based on the concept of flipped classroom on the topic of “Things Around Us” for second-grade students to meet the quality and efficiency criteria 80/80, 2) to study the Effectiveness Index of these online science lessons, and 3) to examine the level of student satisfaction with the lessons. The target group consisted of 30 second-grade students in the first semester of the academic year 2022 at Wat Pradu Thammathipat School, Bang Sue District Office, Bangkok. The research instruments were 1) online science lessons developed based on the flipped classrooms concept, 2) a quality assessment form of the online lessons, 3) pre-test and post-test achievement, and 4) a student satisfaction survey.

The results showed that

1. The online science lessons that were developed by the researcher based on the concept of flipped classroom on the topic of “Things Around Us” for second-grade students were rated as very good for the quality of content (= 4.82, S.D.=0.31) and techniques (=4.59, S.D.=0.58) and had an efficiency of instructional management equal to 82.44/85.33, which met the specified criteria.

2. The result of the study of the Effectiveness Index was 0.7396, which indicated that the students had a 73.96 % increase in learning progress.

3. The results of the survey on student satisfaction revealed that the students were extremely satisfied with the lessons (μ = 4.58, = 0.10).
