Abstract
This study examined the effects of experiential learning on Grade 6 students' mathematics achievement in circle graphs. Thirty Grade 6 students from Bangkok participated in a one-group pretest-posttest quasi-experimental design. The intervention was based on Kolb's experiential learning cycle, incorporating concrete experience, reflective observation, abstract conceptualization, and active experimentation. Research instruments included activity sheets on interpreting and constructing circle graphs, and a 20-item achievement test. Results showed students' post-test mean score was 15.73 (78.65%), with a standard deviation of 2.35. Furthermore, 73.33% of students achieved above the 60% criterion. Paired-sample t-test revealed significantly higher post-instruction scores compared to pre-instruction scores (t = 8.47, p < .001). Qualitative observations indicated high engagement, collaborative interaction, and improved problem-solving abilities. These findings confirm that experiential learning effectively enhances mathematical achievement in topics requiring visualization and data interpretation, fostering deeper understanding and active participation among primary school students.
