Abstract | This research aimed to enhance students' critical thinking and problem-solving skills through science learning activities on cellular respiration, utilizing an inquiry-based approach combined with board games. The target group consisted of 30 Mathayom Suksa 4 students from Udon Pittayanukool School, selected through purposive sampling. This study employed a mixed-methods approach. The research instruments included lesson plans on cellular respiration and board games designed and developed by Gidsanawong Robru et al. (2024). Statistical analysis involved the use of mean and standard deviation, while qualitative analysis utilized content analysis of student work and unstructured interviews. The results indicated that the use of board games significantly improved students' understanding of the cellular respiration process, particularly glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and electron transport. Furthermore, students developed their analytical thinking, decision-making, and problem-solving skills, while also demonstrating increased motivation and engagement in learning. This suggests that board game-based learning can promote effective and sustainable long-term learning. |
