Abstract

This study aim to investigate the effect of using concept mapping in teaching learning process for teachers and students. The study was carried out in XI Arts at Dechencholing Higher Secondary School under Thimphu Tromde, Bhutan with 35 students. The study was a mixed method. The quantitative data collected through class (pretest and posttest) test were analyzed and interpreted using descriptive statistics such as mean and standard deviation, and inferential statistics such as t-test and level of confidence and statistical significance. The qualitative data collected though observation of group works and presentation, and group reflective journal were analyzed by coding and thematic analysis was drawn to analyze the data. The findings showed concept mapping plays an important role in teaching learning process and has positive opinion towards concept mapping usage. It enhances descriptive ability, understand and help to remember concepts, build confidence and enhance active participation in the classroom. However, all concept cannot be taught through concepts mapping. It is also not always easy to construct all concept map. Teacher should encourage students to continue with concept mapping before students master the technique of concept mapping.KeywordsConcepts, Concept Mapping, Test, Teacher, Teaching Learning

Abstract

The main purpose of the study was to find out the effect of simulation games as an intervention program in teaching-learning economics to improve students' academic performance. The study adopts a mixed method. 27 (14 girls and 13 boys) grade twelve students in one higher secondary school participated in the study. The students were selected through non-probability convenient sampling techniques. The study revealed that the intervention program: and simulation games make concepts, ideas, and hypotheses easier to understand. The students have a positive opinion of simulation games used in teaching-learning. Simulation games make teaching-learning interesting, enjoyable, and fun. Through simulation games, students can score high marks on the class test. Students were engaged in self-assessment, self-awareness, self-monitoring, and reflective processes. However, the study revealed that simulation games are time-consuming and teachers need more time and effort for preparation and implementation. Simulation games are not always effective in teaching all micro and macroeconomics concepts.
