Abstract

The purposes of this research were to develop learning activities by using STAD technique with KWDL technique, and to compare the mathematics learning achievement, the ability of mathematical problem solving and connection on linear equations of one variable of Grade-7 students with the specified criteria. The sample group was Grade-7 students in a high school in Buriram province. This study was in the second semester of 2021 academic year, selected amount 40 student from 1 class by cluster random sampling. Students in classroom were divided into proficient group. The research model was quasi-experimental research. The instruments used for collecting data were lesson plans learning activities by using STAD technique with KWDL technique, the achievement test of mathematics, a test of mathematical problem solving and connection abilities on linear equations of one variable. Data were analyzed by percentage, mean and standard deviation. The t – test for one sample were used for the hypothesis testing. The research findings were as follows, lesson plans created by the researcher were more effective than the specified criteria. On average, students’ mathematical learning achievement was more effective than the specified criteria while students’ ability in solving mathematical problems and mathematical connection were more effective than the specified criteria at .05 level of statistical significance.
