A Study of Characteristics of Literate, Intelligent and Cognitive Learners for Students of Mathematics Major, Faculty of Education, Suan Sunandha Rajabhat University

Abstract

This research aims to study the characteristics of literate, intelligent and cognitive learners for students in mathematics, Faculty of Education, Suan Sunandha Rajabhat University. The samples used in this research were 39 third-year students enrolled in the second semester of the academic year 2024 by cluster random sampling, from population to students in mathematics major. The researchers collected data from the literate, Intelligent and cognitive assessment during learning management with problem base learning (PBL). The results showed that 1) characteristics of literate learners of target group was in the good level with the mean of 4.37 and S.D. at 0.74. Communicating, collaborating on work there's a focus. Leaners are ready to learn all the time and study the information obtained from the classroom to solve problems and research information from modern sources. They use them to synthesize and link them to problems, but they cannot be solved, but the answers are not good enough. 2) Characteristics of intelligent learners of target group was in the fair level with the mean of 2.32 and S.D. at 0.62. They showed the problems to deal with the problems appropriately. Be financially well-rounded and apply it to problems. Problems can be linked to certain social contexts, or aware of changes in society and certain world contexts. And 3) characteristics of cognitive learners of target group was in the fair level with the mean of 2.13 and S.D. at 0.62. They are understanding problems and find solutions, be able to think, analyze problems correctly, and tell them about the limitations of problems or how to solve them. In addition, the students have characteristics of literate, intelligent and cognitive learners exceeded the 60 percent threshold at the 0.05 significant level.
