Abstract
The purposes of this research were to: 1) construct lesson plans based on problem-based learning integrated with mind mapping on the unit of Forces in Daily Life for grade 5 students with the criteria efficiency of 80/80, 2) compare the students’ creative thinking before and after intervention, 3) compare the students’ learning achievement before and after the intervention, and 4) examine the students’ satisfaction toward the constructed lesson plans. This study using experimental research design. The population consisted of 84 students in grade 5 from five classrooms in five schools under that Choeng Chum Network, Sakon Nakhon Primary Educational Service Area Office 1, during the second semester of the academic year 2024. The sample group, selected by cluster random sampling, included 13 students in grade 5 from That Na Weng Witthaya School. The research instruments included: 1) lesson plans, 2) test, 3) a learning achievement test, and 4) a satisfaction questionnaire. The statistics used for data analysis consisted of percentage, mean, standard deviation, and t-test for Dependent Samples.
The research findings were as follows: 1) The lesson plans on the unit of forces in daily life using problem-based learning integrated with mind mapping for grade 5 students had an efficiency of 83.78/84.67, which was higher than the criteria set of 80/80. 2) The students’ creative thinking after the intervention was significantly higher than that of before at the .01 level. 3) The students’ learning achievement after the intervention was significantly higher than that of before at the .01 level. and 4) The students’ satisfaction toward the learning plans was at the high level.
