Abstract
The purpose of this research is to 1) design of an Ubiquitous Scaffold Learning Environment Using Problem-based Learning model to enhance problem-solving skills and context awareness, and 2) evaluate the developed model. The research procedures divide into two phases. The first phase is to design of Ubiquitous Scaffold Learning Environment Using Problem-based Learning model, and the second phase is to evaluate the developed model. The sample group in this study consists of five experts selected by purposive sampling method. Data were analyzed by arithmetic mean and standard deviation. The research findings are as follows: 1. The developed model consist of three components is 1) principles of ubiquitous learning environment (ULE), problem-based learning with scaffolding in ULE, problem solving skill and context awareness 2) objectives of the model are to enhance problem solving skill and context awareness and 3) Process of the instructional model 2. The experts agree Ubiquitous Scaffold Learning Environment Using Problem-based Learning model model is high level of appropriateness.
Highlights
The development of problem-solving skill is indispensable and it is an important objective of the present education management. This is because it is necessary for the life-long learning and it corresponds to Partnership for 21st Century Skills [1], which requires that the learners must have development of problem-solving skill, one of the learning skills and innovations
Thereby, the learning process that enables the students to have problem-solving skills is Problem-based Learning or Problem-based learning (PBL), a learning model based on the theories of Constructivism
Ubiquitous Learning Environment in this research is a management of learning environment in order to promote problem-base learning
Summary
The development of problem-solving skill is indispensable and it is an important objective of the present education management. The problemsolving skill can be developed by means of Problem-based learning (PBL) [2], in which the learners are encouraged to create new knowledge from the real-life problems. Thereby, the learning process that enables the students to have problem-solving skills is Problem-based Learning or PBL, a learning model based on the theories of Constructivism In this model, the students generate new knowledge from the problems of the real world, which is considered a learning context to help the students receive skills of analytical thinking and problem-solving thinking[2]. According to National ICT Policy Framework 2011-2020, the education in Thailand is projected to step into "Smart Learning", which continually supports the application and DOI :10.5121/ijite.2013.2403
