Abstract
The purposes of this study were as follows: 1) to study conceptual knowledge of Mathayomsuksa IV students on matrices after being taught by using Microsoft Excel program, and 2) to study procedural knowledge of Mathayomsuksa IV students on matrices after being taught by using Microsoft Excel program. The participants were 45 Mathayomsuksa IV students of Bodindecha (Sing Singhaseni) School in Bangkok, Thailand, in the second semester of the 2020 academic year. Experimental study for the research model is one-group posttest-only design. The participants were taught through 10 lesson plans of 50 minutes for each lesson plan. The conceptual knowledge and the procedural knowledge tests on matrices were used for evaluating the students' conceptual and procedural knowledges. The research findings revealed that: 1) after being taught by using the Microsoft Excel program, over 60% of the participants satisfied the criteria of having conceptual knowledge at a significant level of .05 and 2) after being taught by using the Microsoft Excel program, over 60% of the participants satisfied the criteria of having procedural knowledge at a significant level of .05.
