The Study of Mathematics Learning Achievement and Problem Solving Ability of Mathayomsuksa Five Students on Sequences and Series by Using 4E×2 Instructional Model

Abstract

The objectives of this research were to study 1) characteristics of learning activities by using 4E×2 instructional model for teaching and learning development on sequences and series, and 2) mathematics learning achievement and problem solving ability of mathayomsuksa five students on sequences and series by using 4E×2 instructional model. The sample in this research was 27 mathayomsuksa five students of one classroom who were studying in the second semester of the academic year 2022 that was selected by cluster random sampling from 5 classrooms at Matthayomsangkeetwithaya bangkok school. The instruments used in this research were  mathematics lesson plans on sequences and series by using 4E×2 instructional model
a test to measure the achievement of mathematics on sequences and series and mathematics ability test in solving problems on sequences and series. The data were analyzed in terms of percentage, mean, standard deviation, t-test and content analysis. The results of the research found as follow 1) Characteristics of learning activities by using 4E×2 instructional model for teaching and learning development on sequences and series consisted of 4 steps: (1) Engage, (2) Explore, (3) Explain, (4) Extend and in each step, cognitive reflections and formative assessment are performed during the course of study at the same time. 2) Students had mathematics learning achievement and problem solving ability on sequences and series after receiving the learning activities by using 4E×2 instructional model were higher than 60% at the .05 level of significance.
