Abstract:
The purposes of this research were to study the mathematical connection abilities of grade 6 students learning by instructional management using metacognitive questions, compare the
mathematics learning achievements of grade 6 students before and after learning by instructional management using metacognitive questions, and study the grade 6 students' satisfaction towards
instructional management using metacognitive questions. The sample group were 30 grade 6 students in Thairath Witthaya 87 school (Nikhomsangtonaeng 1), studying in the 1st semester, the academic
year 2021. They were selected by cluster sampling. The research instruments consisted of mathematics lesson plans in the contents of decimals; instructional management using metacognitive questions, mathematical connection ability assessment, mathematics learning achievement test, and student satisfaction assessment. The statistics used for data analysis were percentage, mean, standard deviation, and dependent samples t-test.
The research findings were as follows
1. Mathematical Connection Abilities on Decimals of Grade 6 Students with metacognitive questions Learning Management is at a fair level. with an average score of 4.32,
representing 54.00 percent of the full score, having the Mathematical Connection Abilities with other sciences at good level with an average score of 2.40, representing 72.94 percent of the full score, and their ability to relate math to daily life was at a very good level. with an average score of 3.52, representing 88.00 percent of the full score.
2. The mean score of mathematics learning achievement of grade 6 students after learning by instructional management using metacognitive questions was higher than before learning by instructional management using metacognitive questions at the 0.05 level of statistical significance.
3. The mean score of grade 6 students satisfaction toward mathematics Instructional management using metacognitive questions was at high level.
