It is determined that a student earns future problem-solving average score not less than 80 percent and pass at least 80% of criteria; and 2) study satisfaction towards learning management in future problem-solving teaching guidance activities. The target group consists of 20 cases of 5/1 class students studying 2nd semester, 2019 academic year, Chorakhe Witthayayon School. The action research comprises of 3 action cycles. The research tools are divided into three types: 1) tools used for action: six guidance activity learning management plans; 2) tools used for reflecting action results: teaching record form, learning behavior observation form, student interview form, 6-item subjective test for end cycle future problem solving ability; and 3) research result evaluation tools: 6-item subjective test for future problem solving ability and 20-item satisfaction questionnaire for guidance activities with application of future problem-solving instruction. The mean (), standard deviation (S.D.) and percentage (%) are applied for quantitative data analysis and content analysis is employed for qualitative data analysis.
The findings reveal that: 1) students earn mean () of future problem-solving ability scores equivalent to 21.50, accounting for 89.58 percent of full score and the number of students pass the criteria is 17, accounting for 85.00% of entire students and the number is higher than the criteria; 2) the satisfaction level among students towards learning management with future problem-solving instruction is the highest ( = 4.51, S.D. = 0.59). Considering each item, the item with the highest mean is: encourage students to practice indicating the most critical problem ( = 4.80, S.D. = 0.41), followed by encourage students to find problem solutions ( = 4.75, S.D. = 0.44).
