Competency-Based Teaching Plan Integrating Problem-Based Learning Process and Computer-Assisted Instruction on SQL Language, Database Management Course

Abstract

The aims of this experimental research were 1) to develop an effective demonstration-based computer assisted instruction on SQL language, database management course for teaching and learning through competency-based teaching plan integrating problem-based learning process, 2) to implement the teaching and learning through competency-based teaching plan integrating problem-based learning process and demonstration-based computer-assisted instruction on SQL language, database management course. Forty sophomores, who were studying in computer education program, Nakhon Pathom Rajabhat University in the first semester of academic year 2016 were targeted participants of this study. The instruments in the study consisted of 1) experimental instruments, including a competency-based teaching plan, computer-assisted lessons on SQL language, data management course, which was approved by 3 experts in terms of appropriate and content accuracy and 2) data collection instruments, which were composed of evaluation forms for the effectiveness of the teaching and learning through competency-based teaching plan integrating problem-based learning process and effective demonstration-based computer-assisted instruction, pretest, posttest, activity scoring sheets, and a satisfactory survey. With statistical analyses of gathered data, the finding of the study showed that the average IOC score of the teaching and learning through competency-based teaching plan integrating problem-based learning process and computer-assisted instruction was highly positive (X̅ = 4.86, S.D. = 0.23). The effective score of a computer-assisted instruction was 87.80/85.60 which were higher than the expected criterion. The students’ learning outcomes after learning through the computer-assisted instruction was significantly higher at .05 level. The students’ satisfaction towards the computer-assisted instruction on SQL language, data management course was highly positive (X̅ = 4.95, S.D. = 0.53). The findings accomplished the research objectives.
