The Learning Management Using the Storyline Technique on Thai History during the Rattanakosin Era for Mathayomsuksa 3 Students

Abstract

     This study aims to: 1. develop instructional plans utilizing the storyline technique for teaching Thai history during the Rattanakosin era; 2. compare students’ learning achievement before and after using the storyline technique, and 3. examine students’ satisfaction with learning through the storyline technique. The samples were 25 Mathayomsuksa 3 students from Ban Chi Witthaya School, Lopburi Province, during the first semester of the 2024 academic year, selected through cluster sampling. Research instruments included 13 instructional plans ( = 4.74, S.D. = 0.24), a 30-item learning achievement test (reliability = 0.85), and a 15-item satisfaction questionnaire (reliability = 0.89). Data analysis employed statistical methods such as mean, standard deviation, and dependent t-test.

     The findings revealed that: 1. the developed instructional plans (13 in total) were rated as appropriate by experts, with suitability scores ranging from 0.67–1.00; 2. the students’ post-learning achievement scores ( = 20.50, S.D. = 0.81) were significantly higher than their pre-learning scores ( = 11.95, S.D. = 0.75) at the 0.05 level of statistical significance. This indicates that, after participating in the learning activities, the students achieved higher academic performance, and 3) the students’ overall satisfaction with the learning activities was at the highest level ( = 4.67, S.D. = 0.61).
