The Development of Learning Activity Package using Problem Solving Processes of Polya with Bar Model Drawing Technique on Fractions to Promote Solving Math Problem Ability for Primary 5 Students
The objectives of this research were to: 1) develop a learning activity package using Polya’s problem-solving processes with the bar model drawing technique on fractions for Primary 5 students, ensuring effectiveness according to the 80/80 criteria; 2) compare the students’ ability to solve math problems before and after using the learning activity package; and 3) compare the student’s learning achievements before and after using the learning activity package. The sample used in this research was a group of 30 Primary 5 students from Watthapsai School, Pongnamron District, Chanthaburi Province, obtained through multi-step random sampling, consisting of one classroom. The research instruments were: 1) a learning activity package using Polya’s problem-solving processes with the bar model drawing technique on fractions, 2) a test of the students’ ability to solve math problems, and 3) a learning achievement test on fractions. The statistics used for analyzing the collected data were: percentage, mean, standard deviation (S.D.), and t-test.
