Abstract

This research aims to : Create and evaluate the effectiveness of family and community involvement learning activities to promote mathematical literacy for early childhood, with a target efficiency of 75/75. 2) Compare the mathematical literacy of early childhood before and after participating in collaborative learning activities involving families and communities, to assess the effectiveness of these activities in enhancing mathematical knowledge. The research methodology involves research and development, with a sample group of 8 kindergarten students from Bansubsombun School, selected through targeted sampling.  Research tools include: Collaborative learning activities involving families and communities. Lesson plans for learning activities (totaling 20 plans). Assessment forms for mathematical literacy of early childhood (7 scenarios). Data analysis using statistical methods such as mean, standard deviation, Wilcoxon nonparametric statistics, and efficiency calculation using the formula E1/E2.

The research findings are as follows: 1) The collaborative learning activities involving families and communities consist of 4 steps : Step 1 involves participation in planning, Step 2 involves participation in implementation, Step 3 involves participation in evaluation, and Step 4 involves participation in receiving benefits. The suitability of the learning activities is rated as the highest, with an average score of 4.90, while the suitability of the activity plans is also rated as the highest, with an average score of 4.67 Moreover, the effectiveness is calculated to be 76.85/75.66. 2) The results of comparing the collaborative learning activities involving families and communities indicate that the mathematical literacy of students after participating in these activities is significantly higher than before, with statistical significance at the .05 level.
