It aims to be a platform for publishing research and academics including review articles in science and science education. A manuscript that has never been published in other journals, can be prepared either in Thai or English. It should comprise interesting content and deliver modern knowledge or novelty. <strong>All submitted manuscripts have to undergo a double-blind peer review process before publishing</strong>. The manuscripts will be peer-reviewed by at least 3 reviewers from various institutions. </p> <p> The JSSE is categorized as follows: main subject category is in social sciences, subject areas is in social sciences, and sub-subject is in Education. In addition, the JSSE also comprises four Sub-subjects under Physical Sciences, including general chemistry, general computer, general mathematics, and physics & astronomy.</p> <p> The JSSE is scheduled to publish 2 issues per year: No. 1 (January - June) and No. 2 (July - December). </p> <p><strong>Publication Charge</strong></p> <p>A processing charge (APC) of 1500 Baht/article has been announced by JSSE, which will be charged for a submitted manuscript before sending the manuscript to the review process from Jan 2023 onwards. This fee will be charged once the manuscript meets the basic criteria of JSSE.</p> <p>***The author(s) from the Faculty of Science, Ubon Ratchathani University, either first author or corresponding author, can submit the <strong><a href="https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1mC9K3nXdNXPh824LckL56mDxxAFUcXWN?usp=sharing">APC waiver form</a></strong> for consideration of APC waiving by the Dean of the Faculty of Science, Ubon Ratchathani University.</p> <p><strong>This payment does not guarantee that the manuscript will be accepted for publication. The manuscript will undergo the review process as usual.</strong></p>https://so04.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/JSSE/article/view/285059Effects of a STEAM-Integrated Paper Circuit Card Activity on Elementary Students’ Conceptual Understanding, Creativity, and Scientific Attitudes2025-12-15T13:02:24+07:00Thirarat Phunthongthirarat6296@gmail.comKarntarat Wuttiselakarntarat.w@ubu.ac.thChoksin Tanahoungchoksin.t@ubu.ac.thSura Wuttipromsura.w@ubu.ac.th<p>This study investigated the effects of a STEAM-integrated paper circuit card activity on elementary students’ conceptual understanding of electric circuits, creativity and scientific attitudes. Sixteen Grade 6 students from Ban Kaeng Yang School, Thailand, participated in a quasi-experimental one-group pretest–posttest design. Research instruments included the DIRECT 1.0 test, a modified Test of Science-Related Attitudes (TOSRA), and a creativity rubric. Results revealed significant improvement in students’ conceptual understanding (t(15) = 10.77, p < .001), with a normalized gain of 0.56, indicating a medium level of improvement. Their creative performance was at a high level (M = 4.52, SD = 0.39), especially in design aesthetics and functional accuracy. Scientific attitudes were also rated highly (M = 4.39, SD = 0.82), particularly in scientific curiosity and participation. These findings demonstrate that STEAM-based maker activities effectively enhance students’ understanding, motivation, and creativity by linking artistic design with scientific inquiry. The study highlights the value of integrating Maker-based Learning within STEAM contexts to promote holistic development in science education.</p>2026-02-23T00:00:00+07:00Copyright (c) 2026 Journal of Science and Science Education (JSSE)
