LEARNING MANAGEMENT USING COMPETENCY-BASED 7-STEP LEARNING CYCLE FOR DEVELOPING CRITICAL THINKING SKILLS OF GRADE 5 STUDENTS AT BAN CHOENG DOI SUTEP SCHOOL, CHIANG MAI PROVINCE

Abstract

Objectives of this research were: 1. To create learning management using competency-based 7-step learning cycle for developing critical thinking skills, 2. To compare learning achievements before and after learning management using a 7-step learning cycle model, 3. To study analytical thinking skills After organizing learning activities using a 7-step learning cycle model, conducted by the Experimental Research. The population group was 19 grade 5 students at Ban Choeng Doi Suthep School. Chiang Mai Province The research tools were: 1. a learning management plan using a 7-step learning cycle model based on competency to develop critical thinking skills, 2. pre-learning and post-learning tests, 3. analytical thinking skills assessment form. The data were analyzed using percentage, mean, standard deviation, coefficient of variation, and mode.

The results showed that 1. Learning management using competency-based 7-step learning cycle for developing critical thinking skills were at high level 2. Learning management using a 7-step learning cycle model based on performance to develop analytical thinking skills after learning higher than before learning. The average score before learning was 10.32 and after learning was 24.00, indicating that students' knowledge after learning was higher than before learning by evaluating the work. In conclusion, students by overall 67.54 percent were at good level.
