Abstract
The purposes of this research were to 1) construct of lesson plans based on STEAM education on the topic of solution to follow the criterion efficiency 80/80, 2) compare creative thinking of students before and after using the constructed materials, 3) compare learning achievement of students both before and after using the constructed lesson plans, and 4) study satisfaction of students toward the proposed lesson plans. A quantitative research model was used. The sample of this study consisted of 40 students in Mathayomsuksa 4/1, at Thatnaraiwittaya School, Muang district, Sakon Nakhon province, during academic year 2020. They were randomly selected by using the cluster random sampling. The instruments included 1) lesson plans based on STEAM education, 2) creative thinking test, 3) learning achievement test, and 4) satisfaction questionnaire. The collected data were analyzed by using percentage, mean, standard deviation, and t-test for dependent sample.
The results of this study were as follows: 1) the efficiency of lesson plans based on STEAM education on the topic of solution was 80.98/80.11 percent, which was satisfied the criterion efficiency 80/80 2) creative thinking of students after learning was higher than that of before using the constructed material at significant level of .01, 3) the learning achievement of students after learning was higher than that of before using the constructed materials at significant level of .01, and 4) satisfaction of students toward the proposed lesson plans based on STEAM education was at the highest level.
