Abstract

The results of learning management using Open Approach to promote mathematical understanding for grade 4 students This research is a qualitative research. The purpose of this research is to study the mathematical understanding of students on the addition and subtraction of numbers greater than 100,000. The target group is 28 grade 4/1 students in the first semester of the 2024 academic year, Nakhon Si Thammarat Rajabhat University Demonstration School. The research instruments are 5 open learning management plans on the addition and subtraction of numbers greater than 100,000 for grade 4 students, and a mathematical understanding test. Data analysis is a content analysis using data from the mathematical understanding test using the conceptual framework of the level of mathematical understanding of Dubinsky and McDonald (2001).


The research results found that students had 3 levels of understanding: 1) Action level, the action occurred when students were able to follow the command conditions in the given problem situation in a step-by-step manner. 2) At the process level, students were able to develop understanding at the action level or calculation level many times until they were able to use the related knowledge and understanding to predict the results of the action. 3) At the object level, students were able to use it to create mathematical concepts by using knowledge and understanding at the process level to create new concepts.
