Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the results of using problem-based learning provision in a mathematics classroom with the intent on promoting desirable characteristics of Thai children in ASEAN community. The target group was 39 students in MathayomSuksa 1/3 at the ChongfahSinseungwanichbumrung School, Chiang Mai Province. The material used to gather data were lesson plans using problem-based learning approach (Application 1), the student behavior observation forms, an analytical thinking test, teacher’s daily notes, the students’ notes regarding their group work, and student’s learning assessment forms.

All data was analysed based on four characteristics of Thai children. These four characteristics are as follows; 1) appreciating human equality, 2) participation in discussion and the sharing of knowledge, 3) analytical thinking and 4) self management and control. The findings showed that using problem-based learning in a mathematics classroom could promote desirable characteristics of Thai children in all 4 characteristics. The average score for “appreciating human equality” was 3.39 at a good level. The average score for “participation in discussion and the sharing of knowledge” was 3.35 at a good level.
