The Development of Problem-Solving Skills and Mathematics Learning Achievement by Learning Management Based on the STEAM Education for Mathayomsuksa2 Students

Abstract

The objectives of this research were to study the problem-solving skills of students after learning management according to the STEAM Education. A comparison of mathematics learning achievement on geometric transformations of students before and after the learning management according to STEAM Education, and study student satisfaction towards learning management according to the concept of STEAM Education. The sample group used in this research was 35 students in Mathayomsuksa 2/10, Prommanusorn School, Phetchaburi Province, semester 1 of the academic year2021. The total number of 35 students was obtained by cluster random sampling using a lottery method with the classroom as a random unit. The tools used in the research consisted of a learning management plan on geometric
transformations, a problem solving skills assessment form, a learning achievement test about geometric transformations,
and a satisfaction questionnaire on learning management according to the concept of STEAM Education. The data was analyzed using average scores, standard deviation, and t-test dependent.
The results showed that
1) The problem solving skills of MathayomSuksa2 students after learning management based on STEAM
Education as a whole were at a high level.
2) The learning achievement on geometric transformations of MathayomSuksa2 students’ scores Examination
after school was significantly higher than before school at the statistical significance of .01.
3) The satisfaction of Mathayomsuksa2 students towards learning management according to the STEAM
Education found that the students were at the high level of satisfaction in all aspects
