ABSTRACT:

The purposes of this research were 1) to study the effectiveness of instructional process based on inquiry approach and situated learning approach to promote skills in conducting research of pre-service teachers; 2) to study the opinions of the participants toward the use of an instructional process based on inquiry approach and situated learning approach to promote skills in conducting research of pre-service teachers. The research methodology utilized in this study is a quasi-experimental design. The study consists of two distinct phases: the development of an instructional model and the experimental implementation of the model. The sample population consisted of 55 per-service teachers from two classrooms, divided into two groups. The experimental group comprised 30 per-service teachers, while the control group consisted of 25 per-service teachers. The sample groups were chosen by the use of simple random sampling. The research was conducted for 15 weeks. The research instruments included research assessment, interview, and learning log. Data were analyzed by the percentage of average scores, S.D, t-test, and content analysis. The results of this research are as follows: 1) after using the developed instructional model, the experimental group could promote skills in conducting research higher than the control group at a significant level of .05. 2) the opinions of the participants toward the use of instructional process on inquiry approach and situated learning approach to promote skills in conducting research of student teachers’ shows a satisfying level. The result also shows that the participants were satisfied that the model has enabled them to conduct their own research and exposed them to a real-world situation.
