Abstract:
The purposes of this research were to compare computer learning achievement and problem solving ability of students who were taught by the learning cycle and the traditional method. The samples were 84 students who studied in Mathayomsuksa five students at Satri Siriket School of the academic year 2017, they were selected by cluster random sampling.
The research instruments were; 1) the lesson plans with the learning cycle, 2) the lesson plans with the traditional method 3) computer achievement test, and 4) problem solving ability test. The statistics for data analysis were percentage, mean, standard deviation, pretest-posttest, (nonequivalent control group design). The research results were as follows;
1. The computer learning achievement of Mathayomsuksa five students after learning with learning cycle were higher than traditional method at the significant level of .01.
2. The problem solving ability of Mathayomsuksa five students after learning with learning cycle were higher than traditional method at the significance level of .01.
