Abstract
The study focused on the effects of active learning strategies on the performance of Thai students in Mathematics at Plookpanya Learning School serves as a foundation of the intervention plan during the academic year 2024-2025. The primary respondents were the junior high school students enrolled at Plookpanya Learning School. However, this study was confined to a certain population type and area; data shall only be collected from students in Plookpanya Learning School in Thailand; this was a major limitation in terms of generalizing the study findings in other learning settings or other zones of the globe. The findings revealed that active learning strategies are consistently utilized by teachers in teaching mathematics to Thai students in terms of student engagement, use of collaborative learning techniques, implementation of technology, diversity of teaching methods, and feedback and reflection opportunities. Also, there is a high increase in the performance of Thai students after utilizing active learning strategies. Then, Thai students' performance in science classes is correlated with their use of brain-based learning strategies. Active learning strategies used by teachers in teaching mathematics, such as student engagement, use of collaborative learning techniques, implementation of technology, diversity of teaching methods, and feedback and reflection opportunities, are correlated to the performance of Thai students. Moreso, the use of active learning strategies in teaching mathematics significantly contributed to enhancing student engagement and performance among Thai students. As an outcome of the findings and the conclusions, the following recommendations were enumerated: Teachers may incorporate educational technology tools, such as interactive math software, online simulations, and educational games, to create an engaging learning environment that can provide instant feedback and adaptive learning experiences; Teachers may assign students videos or reading materials to study at home and use class time for hands-on activities and discussions; Teachers may encourage group work and collaborative projects where students solve mathematical problems together; Students may actively engage in the learning process by asking questions, seeking help when needed, and being open to feedback; School administrators may organize workshops and training sessions for teachers focused on active learning strategies and the effective use of technology in the mathematics classroom; and School administrators may encourage open communication between teachers, students, and parents to promote engagement and support for active learning initiatives.
