Abstract
The purpose of this study is to identify the effect of problem solving with task-based activities on understanding of major concepts and learning attitude in 'Applications of ICT' subject. In teaching the 4th class of 'Applications of ICT' subject, problem solving with reasoning task-based activities are used for the experimental groups and instructor-oriented teaching for the comparative groups. The results are as follows: First, no meaningful difference was found in the pretest result of concepts of ICT, while posttest found that the students with problem solving with reasoning task-based activities in experimental group marked average 5.87 point higher than the control group and showed meaningful difference at significance level p<.05. Dividing concepts about Information Communication Technology into four domains, there were no meaningful difference between two groups in the concept test about communication principles and methods and network, while the test results about the other two concepts, that is, expressions and patterns of information and compositions and types of communication network, showed the meaningful difference at significance level p<.05. Second, the research proved that the experimental group with problem solving with reasoning task-based activity teaching, compared to the control group with lecture, showed desirable change in learning attitude. From the results, the solving with reasoning task-based activity model is better teaching-learning method compared to lecture, revealing positive change in understanding major concepts of information and communication technology and learning attitude.
