The Factors Affecting Thai Students Learning Outcomes During the COVID-19 Pandemic
Description
Abstract: Background: It is undeniable that COVID-19 has spread all over the world. Because of the spread of this virus, people did not know how to handle this disease efficiently, and this led to problems in the medical, economic, political, and educational fields. Especially in educational fields, school closures as part of measures to control the spread of COVID-19 pose challenges that will transform the face of Thai education. Regarding that matter, Thai students have been learning online due to social distancing measures. Moreover, there are many opinions among students arguing whether online learning is effective or not. Therefore, this research aims to observe and study the attitudes toward learning outcomes of Thai students while having online classes during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Objective: To study attitudes toward learning outcomes among students who study online during COVID-19
Study Methods: The study is a cross-sectional, qualitative research which involves developing a survey. The survey is in the format of Google Forms, which was developed from June 1 to 30 June 2022 and was sent out to social media groups that students belong to. The survey was voluntary and 135 responses were received.
Result: Conclusion: Although there were a minority of students who gave a high rate but not higher than 4 in many questions, in the last question regarding the learning outcomes of the students, all of the students rated the score as not more than 2. This proved that, with many factors, even if some students picked online learning, it didn’t mean that the online learning was effective.
