Target industry careers, Career Bingo Game, DevelopmentAbstract
This study aimed to 1) develop a career bingo game for target industrial careers, and 2) compare the knowledge of target industrial careers among grade eight students before and after using the career bingo game. The research employed a quasi-experimental design and was conducted during the first semester of the 2024 academic year. The sample group comprised 23 grade eight students from Wat Chan Tawan Ok School in Phitsanulok Province. The participants were selected using simple random sampling. The research instruments composed of a career bingo game and a target industrial career knowledge assessment. Data analysis was performed using mean, standard deviation, and dependent t-test.
The results revealed that 1) the quality of the career bingo game assessed by three experts was at a good level (mean = 4.22), and 2) the mean scores of students' knowledge about target industrial careers after using the career bingo game were significantly higher than before (p < 0.01).
The findings from this study demonstrated that the career bingo game serves as an efficacious active learning innovation for enhancing knowledge of target industry careers. This pedagogical tool can be effectively implemented in career guidance activities or integrated across various academic subjects to foster comprehensive understanding and develop decision-making competencies that enable students to select career paths aligned with both their individual capabilities and the emerging demands of the future labor market.
