THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE DIGITAL CLASSROOM USING GOOGLE CLASSROOM, GPAS 5 STEPS AND SCRATCH PROGRAMMING FOR GRADE 5 STUDENTS

Research Objectives to: 1) develop of digital classroom using Google Classroom, GPAS 5 Steps and Scratch programming for Grade 5 2) compare student achievement before and after learning; and 3) student satisfaction toward the digital classroom using Google Classroom. The sample consisted of 31 Grade 5 students (class 5/4) selected through cluster sampling. Research instruments included a digital classroom using Google Classroom integrated with GPAS 5 Steps, lesson plans, classroom quality assessment forms, achievement tests, and satisfaction assessment forms. The research findings revealed that: 1) The digital classroom using Google Classroom integrated with GPAS 5 Steps had quality of
media and contents at very good level, and the efficiency was 87.33/83.06 which is higher than the required standard. This is because the formative assessment during the learning period (E1) was conducted when the content had just been learned, while the summative assessment after learning (E2) was conducted after the end of the learning period, which was considerably distant from the learning itself. The learners may have forgotten some of the content; 2) The results of the comparison of academic achievement before and after studying showed that post-study achievement was significantly higher than pre-study achievement at the 0.05 statistical significance level; and3) The student satisfaction toward the digital classroom using  Google Classroom was at the highest level.
