The Development of Mathematics Problem Solving and Critical Thinking Abilities of Grade 6 Students Using Problem-Based Learning with The Cartoon Animation
Main Article Content
Abstract
The objectives of the research aimed to develop mathematics problem-solving and critical thinking abilities of students using problem-based learning and cartoon animation for grade 6 students to have average score of not less than 70% of the total score and to have more than 70% of all students passed the criteria. The target group consisted of 20 grade 6 students at Banlawa School, Khon Kaen Province, during the first semester of the 2023 academic year, using action research. The research instruments were divided into 3 types: research operational tools, research reflection tools, and research assessment tools. Quantitative data was analyzed using descriptive statistics, consisting of mean (), standard deviation (S.D.), and percentage (%). Qualitative data was analyzed using content analysis. The results found that: 1) The students’ average score of the mathematics problem-solving ability was 29.05 (S.D. = 5.74), which was 72.63 percent of the total score, and 15 students passed the criteria, which accounted for 75.00 percent which was higher than the defined criteria. 2) The students’ average score of the critical thinking ability was at 18.20 (S.D. = 3.22), which was 72.80 percent of the total score, and 14 students passed the criteria, which accounted for 70.00 percent, which was higher than the defined criteria.
