Development of a Learning Process Management According to the Science, Technology, and Society Concept Integrated with Artificial Intelligence Technology to Enhance Environmental Knowledge for Kindergarten 2 Students in a School in Chiang Mai Province
Main Article Content
Abstract
The purpose of this classroom innovation project was to examine the results and compare learning process management based on the Science, Technology, and Society (STS) concept integrated with Artificial Intelligence technology, focusing on environmental knowledge for kindergarten 2 (K2) students at a school in Chiang Mai Province. The target group included 23 K2 students during the second semester of the 2024 academic year at a school in Chiang Mai. The research instruments consisted of: 1) units of learning experience plans based on the STS approach combined with artificial intelligence, and 2) an environmental knowledge assessment for K2 students. Data were analyzed using percentages, means, and standard deviations. The findings showed that: 1) before implementing the learning experiences, K2 students’ environmental knowledge across three aspects was below the qualification level, with a mean score of 7.69 (SD = 2.47), or 27.40%, which is below the 70% criterion; and 2) after implementation, students’ environmental knowledge improved across all aspects, with a mean score of 21.64 (SD = 3.32), or 80.14%, surpassing the 70% threshold and classified as very satisfactory.
