Enhancing Learning Activities Using Innovation Based Problem-Solving Process in Promoting Practical Skills of Electrical Technology

This paper presents the development of learning activities using innovative problem-solving processes to promote practical skills in electrical technology. Research tools, including teaching and learning plans, innovative media packages for promoting practical skills in electrical technology, content sheets, worksheets, practice papers, media presentations, and quizzes. The research sample group was undergraduate students registered in the second semester of 2022, Bachelor of Science in technical education, Department of teacher training in electrical engineering, Faculty of technical education at the King Mongkut’s University of Technology North Bangkok in Thailand. After that, the developed innovative teaching packages are assessed for quality by experts. Finally, innovative teaching packages were implemented with the experimental group. The results showed that The designed innovative teaching package was appropriate at a high level (the mean was 4.49, and the standard deviation was 0.22), and the competency assessment to solve problems had an average of 80.33%. The learners’ learning achievement was an average of 71.83%. The developed learning activities using innovative problem-solving processes can be used to teach electrical technology to develop practical thinking and problem-solving skills. The research results can encourage learners to have occupational and long-life learning skills.
