Improving Mathematical Problems-Solving Ability on Set by KWDL Technique for Grade 10 Students

Abstract

The objectives of this research were to: 1) develop the ability to solve mathematical problems on sets by learning management techniques KWDL for grade 10 students to be higher than the criteria of 70%; 2) compare achievements before and after learning mathematics on sets by learning management techniques KWDL for grade 10 students; and 3) study the satisfaction of grade 10 students towards learning mathematics on sets by learning management techniques KWDL. The sample used in this research was 28 grade 10 students at Kanchanapisek Wittayalai Kalasin School, using cluster random sampling. The instruments were the KWDL technique learning plan, the mathematics problem-solving ability test, the learning achievement test, and the satisfaction questionnaire. The statistics used in the analysis were the mean, percentage, standard deviation, and t-test.

The results showed that 1) the students' ability to solve mathematical problems on sets was higher than the specified criteria of 70 percent, with statistical significance at the.05 level. 2) Learning achievement on set using learning management techniques KWDL for grade 10 students after study was significantly higher than before study at the.05 level. 3) The students' satisfaction with the learning management using the KWDL technique was at its highest level.
