The Development of Instructional Model on Brain-Based Learning to Enhance Mathematical Problem Solving Ability of Prathomsuksa 3 Students on Money and Expenditure Records

Abstract

The objectives of this research were 1) to develop of instructional model on brain-based learning
to enhance mathematical problem solving ability of Prathomsuksa 3 students on money and expenditure
records; 2) to study the implementation developed model. The sample group consisted of 37 Prathomsuksa
3/1 students during the second semester of 2016 academic year, at Ban Samliam Municipal School under
Khon Kaen Municipality Educational Office. The research tools consisted of 1) Lesson plan on brain-based
learning to enhance mathematical problem solving ability; 2) Achievement test on learning; 3) Test on
mathematical problem solving ability, and 4) Questionnaire on students’ satisfaction. Data analysis was through
content analysis, percentage, mean, standard deviation, and dependent t-test. The research findings:
1) The instructional model called SCPEE Model had these components: principle ,objective ,content used
in teaching ,supporting system ,teaching strategies, evaluation and the results of implementation 2) The students’
learning achievement was higher than before, at a 0.05 level of significance, the students’ ability in
mathematical problem solving that 86.49% of the total number of students were above average
and the students’ satisfaction with this model was found at a highest level ( = 4.52, S.D. = 0.53).
