Web – Based Instruction on Reamaunre Dance

Abstract

The purposes of this research were 1) to design and examine efficiency of a web-based instruction on Reamaunre Dance 2) to study and compare the learning achievement of the subjects learning the lesson through the web-based instruction and the subjects learning through traditional methods. 

The samples of this study were 40 students in the first year of their secondary school (Grade 7), in the academic year 2013 from Tessaban 2 Wipatsuksa School, Surin  Province, Thailand,   chosen by simple random sampling method. The samples of the study were divided into 2 groups of 20, for the experimental group who studied the lesson through the web-based instruction, and the controlled group who studied the lesson through traditional methods.

Efficiency test of the web-based instruction on Reamaunre Dance was conducted by the comparison of the sub-test and post-test scores on 80:80 criterion. In addition the comparison of the learning achievement between the 2 groups was conducted using Independent Sample t-test.

The results of the study were as follows:

1) The web-based instruction on Reamaunre Dance was considered efficient with the efficiency value of 85.88:81.31 in accordance with the required criterion not less than of 80:80.

2) The students in the experimental group who studied the lesson through the web-based instruction presented significantly higher learning achievement than the students in the controlled group  who studied the lesson through traditional methods, with the significant value of 0.05.
