Promoting Problem-solving Thinking by Organizing Integrated Learning, Using the Problem as a Basis for Mathayomsuksa 4 Phadungnari School

Abstract

Background and Aims: Learning through problem-based blended approaches plays a critical role in both education and skill development. The objectives of this research are: The research aims to examine the practice of enhancing students' problem-solving abilities. The classroom serves as the site for this action research.

Research Methodology: This investigation uses both quantitative and qualitative research methods as part of its mixed-methods approach. The study targets a group of 39 students from Mathayom 4/2. Researchers used five distinct instruments, which include the Problem-solving process learning management plan with blended learning: problem-solving ability test, Satisfaction questionnaire, Diary form, and Behavioral observation form. Data analysis is divided into 2 types: Qualitative data analysis involves the examination, interpretation, and summarization of results, which are then presented in narrative form. 2) The quantitative data analysis approach employs mean and standard deviation.

Results: The research findings demonstrate that students develop problem-solving abilities through blended learning management, which uses problems to establish interest through five steps and encourages learners to independently search for knowledge based on their strengths. 2) The research findings about problem-solving demonstrated that learners possess a high degree of problem-solving expertise. 3) The blended learning management system receives high satisfaction ratings from learners.

Conclusion: Students show better solution-thinking skills through blended learning management that uses problem-solving as its foundation. Students utilize the problem-solving process to independently research knowledge and develop their solutions to problems.
