Abstract

This research aimed to 1) compare concept on solid liquid gas of grade 10 students before and after learning using Model-Based learning and the conventional learning management, and 2) compare concept on solid liquid gas of grade 10 students after learning between using Modelbased learning and the conventional learning management. The sample group was grade 10 students in the second academic year of 2018 at Lamplaimat School, Lamplaimat District, Buriram Province. There was 79 students selected by cluster random sampling and simple random sampling. These samples were divided into two groups: Mathayomsuksa 4/2 using Model-Based learning and Mathayomsuksa 4/4 using the conventional learning management. The study tools were 6 lesson plans with Model-Based learning on solid liquid gas unit and 6 lesson plans with conventional learning management solid liquid gas unit and the solid liquid gas concepts test. The data were analyzed by Percentage, Mean, Standard deviation (S.D) and t-test statistic. The results showed that

1. A comparison of concepts on solid liquid gas of grade 10 students before and after learning using Model-Based learning and the conventional learning management was found that after learning was higher than before learning management with statistical significance at .05 level. Mean of concepts before using Model-based learning is 4.83(16.08%) , mean of concepts after using Model-based learning is 22.77(75.90%) and mean of concepts before using the conventional learning management is 5.10 (17.01%) , mean of concepts after using the conventional learning management is 16.68 (55.60%).

2. Concepts on solid liquid gas after learning between using Model-Based learning and the conventional learning management was found that after learning using Model-Based learning was higher than after learning using the conventional learning management with statistical significance at the .05 level. Mean of concepts after using Model-based learning is 22.77(75.90%)and mean of concepts after using the conventional learning management is 16.68 (55.60%).

3. The most developed concepts from the model-based learning is the relationship between the gas pressure, gas temperature, gas volume and number of gas molecules, students have Sound Understanding ( SU) increased by 70% before learning. The most developed concepts from the conventional learning management is the effect of temperature and pressure on gas volume, students have Sound Understanding ( SU) increased by 24.79% before learning.

4. The most of Specific Misconception (SM) from the model-based learning is the particle arrangement of solids and The most of Specific Misconception ( SM) from the conventional learning management is the evaporation of liquid.
