A STUDY OF MATHEMATICS LEARNING ACHIEVEMENT ON THE TOPIC OF REAL NUMBERS USING THE OPEN APPROACH COMBINED WITH THE THINK-PAIR-SHARE TECHNIQUE FOR STUDENTS IN GRADE 8
Keywords:
Think-Pair-Share Technique, Real Numbers, Open Approach Learning ManagementAbstract
The research article has the following objectives : 1) To study the mathematics achievement in the topic of real numbers through an Open Approach combined with the Think-Pair-Share technique for 2nd-year high school students, compared to the 75% criterion. 2) To compare the mathematics achievement in the topic of real numbers before and after learning through the Open Approach combined with the Think-Pair-Share technique for 2nd-year high school students. The sample group for this study consisted of 28 students from the second year of high school at ChaturakPattarapimarnRajchadapisek School, selected through purposive sampling. The research tools used included a lesson plan for the subject content and a test to measure mathematics achievement. The statistical methods used to analyze the data included percentage, mean, standard deviation, and statistical testing. The research findings were as follows: 1) The mathematics achievement in the topic of real numbers, using the Open Approach combined with the Think-Pair-Share technique, met the 75% criterion, with statistically significant results at the .05 level. 2) A comparison of mathematics achievement in the topic of real numbers before and after the learning process showed that the students' scores after the learning process were significantly higher than before, with statistically significant results at the .05 level.
