The development of inquiry-based learning management (5E) with graphic charts to stimulate science learning achievement on the topic of global phenomena and natural disasters for Grade 6 students

Abstract

Background and Aims: In the 21st century, the world is highly competitive. Therefore, it is important that scientific education should be developed to be of high quality to promote the development of learners' skills. This research aims to 1) Develop inquiry-based learning management (5E) with effective graphic charts according to the criteria (75/75), 2) Compare the achievement of science learning on world phenomena and natural disasters of students who studied through inquiry-based learning management (5E) with a graphic charts after class with the criterion of 75%, and 3) Study students' satisfaction with inquiry-based learning management (5E) with graphic charts.

Methodology: The sample group chose to use the group random technique as 42 students in Grade 6, Semester 2, Academic Year 2024. The tools used in the research included 1) Learning management plan using knowledge inquiry-based learning management (5E) with graphic charts 13 plans, 2) Science achievement test, 4 multiple choices, 30 questions, and 3) 10 satisfaction questionnaires. The data were then analyzed by finding the percentage, mean, standard deviation, and t-test.

Results: 1) Knowledge inquiry-learning management (5E) with graphic charts on Global phenomena and natural disasters the efficiency was 80.03/81.11, higher than the set criteria., 2) The students achieved a statistically significant 75 percent higher than the post-school science achievement threshold at the .05 level, and 3) The students are satisfied with the overall level of learning management.

Conclusion: The development of inquiry-based learning management (5E) in combination with graphic charts effectively promotes the science achievement of Grade 6 students and can also be used to develop learners at other grades.
