Abstract

The purposes of the study were to investigate the effectiveness of the QSCCS technique on the development of grade 9 students’ summary writing and 2) to study the students’ satisfaction with learning to write a summary with the QSCCS technique. The study was conducted in a quasi-experimental design using a single group of participants. The participants were 44 students in the Thai context. They were chosen using the purposive random sampling technique. The instruments were a learning management plan designed using the QSCCS technique, a pre-post-test, and a questionnaire. The students’ scores before and after the treatment were compared using a paired-sample test. The effectiveness of the learning management was analyzed considering the students’ performances during the learning process (E₁) and the students’ post-test scores (E₂). Mean scores and standard deviations were also used to analyze students’ questionnaire answers. The result of the study indicates the benefits of the QSCCS technique in developing grade 9 students’ summary writing skills. In addition, it was discovered that the participants were satisfied with learning to write a summary with the QSCCS technique. The results of the study provide an alternative instructional method for teaching summary writing.
