This article has been retracted at the request of the Editor-in-Chief.

Reason for retraction: The authors have duplicated a paper that had already appeared in Chalermkanchana Academic Journal, Volume 10, Issue 2, 2023, pp. 15-32. One of the conditions of submission of a paper for publication is that authors declare explicitly that their work is original and has not appeared in a publication elsewhere. Re-use of any data should be appropriately cited. As such this article represents a severe abuse of the academic publishing system. The journal takes a very strong view on this matter and apologies are offered to readers of the journal that this was not detected during the submission process.

The Editor apologizes to the readership for any inconvenience caused.

The objectives of this research were: 1) to compare Thai reading and writing abilities on enjoyment of reading and writing among Grade 4 students before and after learning through collaborative learning management using the CIRC technique, and 2) to compare Thai reading and writing abilities on enjoyment of reading and writing among Grade 4 students after learning through collaborative learning management using the CIRC technique with 60 percent criteria. The sample group consisted of 20 students of Grade 4 from Ban Kraduang School, Mueang Buriram District, Buriram Province, during semester 1 of the academic year 2023. The tools utilized in this research included a learning management plan employing collaborative learning management using the CIRC technique, a 20-item multiple-choice test on reading ability, and a reading ability test. The data were analyzed using mean, percentage, standard deviation, and hypothesis testing through t-tests for dependent sample and t-tests for one sample.

           The research results were as follows:

1. Thai reading and writing abilities on enjoyment of reading and writing among Grade 4 students after learning through collaborative learning management using the CIRC technique was significantly higher than before learning through collaborative learning management using the CIRC technique at the .05 level.


2. Thai reading and writing abilities on enjoyment of reading and writing among Grade 4 students after learning through collaborative learning management using the CIRC technique was 73.43 percent, higher than the 60 percent criteria, with statistical significance at the .05 level.
