Abstract
This research objectives were: 1) to study the urban context, local wisdom of lemongrass plants to develop innovative classes on computer networks via the constructivist theory of local wisdom in Chowraka Village, Tambon Na-Fai, Mueang Chaiyaphum District, Chaiyaphum Province, 2) to create a local science lesson on the computer network via the constructivist theory 2 levels, including higher education and basic education, and 3) to study the satisfaction of students after learning the lessons on a computer network via the constructivist theory of quality for life sciences subject and group of learning science subject. Phase 1: Studies with the local community context of the lemongrass plants and lead to innovative planting, expansion and processing of lemongrass plants in Choraka Village communities in Mueang Chaiyaphum District, Chaiyaphum Province. The sample was one of 45 people villager. The second were 60 students and the third group was first year students at Chaiyaphum Rajabhat University of 30, Equipment used to collect data includes questionnaires form, interviews form and focus group discussions. Phase 2: Development to create a science lesson on the local network at two levels: basic education to teach on science subject and the science for quality of life subject on computer networks using constructivist theory for the higher education level. And conducted for effectiveness tests on a science lesson on the computer network using Google classroom. Phase 3: Studied the results of a science lesson on computer networks. The lemongrass plant lesson for learners to basic education and higher education. Proceeding science lessons on computer networks for effectiveness index tested. The samples were 30 students of each Mathayomsuksa one and four years of Kanchana Wittayalai Chaiyaphum School, and the first year of 30 students. Analysis the data using the mean, standard deviation, and T value. The studied found that: 1) Urban context and local wisdom of lemongrass plants studied to develop innovative learning on computer networks consisted of: (1) The history of lemongrass herbs plants; (2) How to grow and reproduction of the lemongrass plant; (3) The maintenance of lemongrass plants; and (4) The processing plant lemongrass, 2) The lessons on computer networks were E1 / E2 equal to 83.82 / 85.74 and the effectiveness index of the lesson through the computer network were the E1 / E2 equal to 86.60 / 89.44 that meant the lesson was more effective than 80/80 as of criterion, 3) According to the results of the lessons on computer networks were: (1) 30 students of Mathayomsuksa one and four received average score of learning achievement after learning posttest score higher than pretest and (2) A higher education undergraduate first years received average score of learning achievement after learning posttest score higher than pretest with significant, and 4) The study of satisfaction: (1) The students of Mathayomsuksa one and four 30 people were satisfied with the highest level at mean value at 4.60 (S.D.=0.28) and 4.51 (S.D.=0.31) respectively and (2) The first years students 30 people were satisfied with the highest level at mean 4.53 (S.D.=0.28).
