The Development of Reading Comprehension Skills of Pratomsuksa 3 Students using SQ4R Integrated with Mind Mapping Learning Management

Abstract

The purposes of the current study were 1) to develop an SQ4R integrated with mind mapping learning management with an efficiency of 75/75 for Pratomsuksa 3 students, 2) to study reading comprehension skills of students learning with the developed learning management, and 3) to study students’ satisfaction toward learning with the developed learning management. Selected by the purposive sampling method, the samples were 8 Pratomsuksa 3 students in Khummun Phadungwit School under control of Kalasin Primary Education Service Area 2 in the second semester of the 2020 academic year. The instruments were 1) an SQ4R integrated with mind mapping learning management which consisted of 6 sub learning plans of 12 learning hours, 2) a reading comprehension test designed to have 20 items of 3 multiple choices and proved to have difficulty of 0.63-0.75, discrimination of 0.25-0.75, and reliability of 0.94, 3) a satisfaction questionnaire designed to have 10 question items with discrimination of 0.52-0.91 and reliability of 0.90, and 4) a 5-aspect learning behavior observation proved to have 0.80-1.00 of IOC. The statistics used in data analysis were percentage, mean score, standard deviation, and t-test.            

     The results of the study were as follows.

1. The SQ4R integrated with mind mapping learning management for Pratomsuksa 3 students was found to have efficiency at 79.88/80.83 reaching the criteria of 75/75.


2. Students’ reading comprehension skill was significantly higher after learning with the developed learning management at a statistical level of .05, and the students’ learning behaviors were found at a very high level (  = 3.60, S.D. = 0.43)  


3. The students’ satisfaction toward the developed learning management was found at a very high level ( = 4.73, S.D. = 0.35)
