Abstract

This research aimed to develop brain-based learning materials and mathematics learning
skills of primary 1 – 3 students. Its specific objectives were: 1) to create a mathematics learning
materials based on brain-based learning for primary 1-3 students in accordance with indicators
and learning standards of mathematics curriculum (2017, revised edition), and 2) to evaluate the
efficiency of mathematics learning materials by using brain-based learning for the students in
primary1-3 in congruence with indicators and learning standards with 3 strands and 5 standard of
mathematic curriculum. The samples were 50 students who were studying in the 4th year of
mathematics program and they enrolled in the professional teaching experience course and were
teaching primary 1-3 at schools located in the remote area of Banna district, Nakhonnayok
province. The research instruments consisted of 1) mathematics learning materials with brain
development processes to develop mathematical skills, 2) mathematics learning materials
creation analysis form, 3) learning materials evaluation form and 4) achievement test. The
statistics used for data analysis were percentage, mean, standard deviation, precision, difficulty,
discriminatory power and confidence by using the KR20 formula according to Couture
Richardson method.
The results indicated that:

1. A mathematics learning materials using brain-based learning for primary 1-3 students
in accordance with indicators and learning standards of mathematics curriculum (2017, revised
edition) contained 38 activities and learning materials. There were 8 activities / learning
materials of students in primary 1, 16 activities / learning materials of primary 2 students and 14
activities / learning materials of 3th primary students.
2. The efficiency evaluation of brain-based mathematics learning materials for students in
primary 1-3 in accordance with indicators and learning standards with 3 strands 5 standards of
mathematic curriculum by experts found that media performance was very high for students in
primary 1, was high level for students in primary 2, and was very high for students in primary 3.
The results of the development of mathematical skills in 3 areas which were numerical thinking,
problem solving, and intelligence of students in primary 1-3 according to indicators and learning
standards with 3 strands 5 standards in mathematics curriculum found that all of students in
primary 1-3 had more results of test after the experiment using mathematics learning materials.
