Abstract

This research aimed to develop and study the efficiency of an instructional process based on problem posing and authentic learning in order to improve the mathematics problem-solving ability of primary school students in Nakhon Pathom province. The research was research and development-oriented and was divided into 2 phases: phase 1 focused on the development of the instructional process, while Phase 2 involved an experiment for the instructional process using a quasi-experimental research method. The sample group consisted of 67 students in grade 6 categorized into 34 students in the experiment group and 33 students in the control group. The tool for data collection was an assessment form for mathematics problem-solving ability. The results showed that: 1) The developed instructional process comprised of 5 steps; presenting a new problem situation and self-reflection, building a learning community, brainstorming with the group process, presenting and sharing the group concept, and summarizing and problem extension; 2) The experiment group had a higher average score for mathematics problem-solving ability for the post-test than the control group at the significance of .05.
