The Development of Mathematics Problem Solving Ability by Using Problem-Based Learning Approach with Problem Posing Strategies of Mathayomsuksa IV Students
Keywords:
Mathematics Problem Solving Ability, Problem-Based Learning Approach, Problem Posing StrategiesAbstract
The objectives of this research were: 1) to compare mathematics problem solving ability as a whole and each subcomponents of students before and after being taught by problem-based learning approach with problem posing strategies and 2) to compare mathematics problem solving ability as a whole and each subcomponents between the students being taught by problem-based learning approach with problem posing strategies and those being taught by a conventional approach.
The subjects were 69 Mathayomsuksa IV students in the first semester of academic year 2020 at Banlat Wittaya School, Banlat, Phetchaburi Province. The students were divided into two groups, one experimental group with 35 students and one controlled group with 34 students. The sampling method was cluster sampling to collect the data. The research instruments were 1) the lesson plans using problem-based learning approach with problem posing strategies 2) the lesson plans using conventional approach and 3) the mathematics problems solving test. The data were analyzed by arithmetic mean, standard deviation and t-test.
The research results were 1) Mathematics problem solving ability as a whole and each subcomponents of Mathayomsuksa IV students after being taught by problem-based learning approach with problem posing were higher than before the instruction statistically at significance level of .05 2) Mathematics problem solving ability as a whole and each subcomponents of Mathayomsuksa IV students taught by problem-based learning approach with problem posing were higher than the students taught by a conventional approach at .05 level of significance.
