Abstract
This research aimed to: (1) investigate the needs and problems in English reading comprehension skills of Grade 5 students at Wat Srisuk School, Khlong Sam Wa, Bangkok; (2) develop English reading comprehension skills by applying the SQ6R technique; and (3) assess the students’ satisfaction with the learning management system using the SQ6R technique. The sample group consisted of 20 Grade 5 students from Wat Srisuk School, selected through purposive sampling. The research employed a Pre-Experimental one-group pre-test and post-test design. The instruments used included a needs analysis questionnaire, lesson plans based on the SQ6R technique, English reading comprehension pre-test and post-test, and a student satisfaction questionnaire. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics: percentage, mean, and standard deviation. The results showed that:
- Students had a low level of reading comprehension skills before the intervention, indicating the need for instructional improvement.
- After the implementation of the SQ6R technique, students’ post-test scores significantly improved to a good level.
- Students demonstrated high satisfaction with the learning process using the SQ6R technique, with an average satisfaction score of 4.34 out of 5 and an overall satisfaction rate of 86.80%.
