The Development of Learning Activity Packages Based on KWL-Plus Technique with Concept Map to Promote Analytical Reading Ability for Prathomsuksa 6 Students

Abstract

This research consists purposes were 1. develop the learning activity packages using KWL-Plus technique with concept map to enhance analytical reading ability for Prathomsuksa 6 students to meet the efficiency criterion of 75/75 2. to compare the students’ analytical reading ability before and after the implementation of being taught by KWL-Plus technique with concept map and 3.to study the students’ satisfaction towards the learning activity packages using KWL-Plus technique with concept map. is an Experimental Research One-Group Pretest-Posttest Design research There is a research tool which is an (1) Thai learning activity packages based on KWL-Plus technique with concept map to promote analytical reading ability for Prathomsuksa 6 students, (2) 6 lesson plans of the Thai learning activity packages with 12 hours of teaching (3) a critical reading test containing 30 multiple-choice items, and (4) a satisfaction questionnaire containing 15 items. The data was analyzed by percentage, mean, and standard deviation. The results of this research were: 1) The learning activity packages based on KWL-Plus technique with concept map to promote analytical reading ability for Prathomsuksa 6 students had an efficiency criteria of 77.55/77.57 which were higher than the designated criteria of 75/75. 2) The students’ mean scores of analytical reading ability before the implement were 11.83. The mean scores after the implementation were 23.27 which were significantly higher than the pretest scores at the .05 level. and 3) The students’ satisfaction towards the learning activity packages using KWL-Plus technique with concept map was at high level (x̅= 4.68, S.D. = 0.08).
