Abstract

The purposes of this research were: to examine Effects of a Learning Development Program Integrating Active Learning on Achievement Motivation and Achievement in Science of Students with Low Science Achievement. This research

was a quasi experimental research. The sample consisted of thirty low science  achievement Prathom Suksa 6 students, in second semester, the academic year 2012, in Anuban Bangpae School (Wat Bangpae-Tai Community). They were randomly assigned to form the experimental and control groups. Each group consisted of 15 students. The experimental group participated in the Learning Development Program integrating active learning on achievement motivation. The control group was taught by the traditional method. Data were, collected by using achievement in science and achievement motivation tests, analyzed by mean, standard deviation and t-test. The findings indicated that: 1) After the experiment, achievement motivation scores of the experimental group were significantly higher than theirs before the experiment. 2) After the experiment, science scores of the experimental group were significantly higher than those of the control group.
