Learning management based on the language teaching for communication combined with grouping techniques to develop Chinese speaking skills for everyday use of secondary 4 (grade 10) students
Abstract:
The objectives of this study were to: 1) compare Chinese speaking skills for
everyday use of secondary 4 (grade 4) students before and after learning through the
conventional learning management, 2) compare Chinese speaking skills for everyday use
of secondary 4 students before and after learning through the language teaching for
communication combined with grouping techniques as the learning management, and 3)
compare Chinese speaking skills for everyday use of secondary 4 students who had
received the learning management based on the language teaching for communication
combined with grouping techniques and the conventional learning management.
The samples for this research included 50 secondary 4 students at Prathandongrungwittayakarn school, Secondary Educational Service Area Office 8. The
students were in the second semester of 2019 and selected by the cluster random
sampling method. The study was undertaken in the second semester in the 2019
academic year, using a pretest-posttest nonequivalent-groups design. The tools of this study were: 1) a conventional learning management plan, 2) a learning management plan
based on the language teaching for communication combined with grouping technique as
the learning management, and 3) a Chinese communication skill test. The statistics used
to analyze the data were comprised of mean, standard deviation, t-test (dependent
samples), and t-test (independent samples).
The research results were as follows: 1) Chinese speaking skills for everyday
use of secondary 4 students before and after learning through the conventional
learning management were different at a significance level of 0.05, 2) Chinese speaking
skills for everyday use of secondary 4 students before and after learning through the
language teaching for communication combined with grouping techniques as the learning
management were different at a significance level of 0.05, and 3) Chinese speaking skills
for everyday use of secondary 4 students before and after learning based on the language
teaching for communication combined with grouping techniques were significantly higher
than those who learned through the conventional learning management, with a
statistically significance level of 0.05
