Udon Pittayanukoon is a public secondary school for grades 7–12 (Mathayom 1-6). In the junior secondary level (Grades 7-9), there are various programs to support the development of students' academic abilities, especially science, mathematics, and technology. One of the programs is the Special Science Class Project, which is organized by the Association for the Promotion of Science and Technology to encourage students' interests and excellence in science. In addition, there is the Project to Promote Mathematics and Science Abilities, which aims to improve students' competencies in mathematics and science at the junior secondary level. This program is supported by a special curriculum and additional activities. In addition, there is the Education Hub Project (International Program), which provides internationally oriented learning, and the Regular Classroom for the regular education pathway.
At the senior secondary level (Grades 10-12), the program options are more diverse to accommodate students' interests and potential. Featured programs such as the Mathematics, Science, and Technology Skills Promotion Project (SQWTP) are aimed at developing science, mathematics, and technology skills. At this level, they study all fields of science, namely biology, chemistry, physics, and astronomy). In addition, there is an International Program (IP) as part of the Education Hub Project. The curriculum is also designed to focus on specific abilities, such as the Science Plan (Plan 1) for science and mathematics, the English-Math Plan (Plan 2) for mathematics and English, and the Chinese Plan (Plan 3) and Japanese Plan (Plan 4) for students who want to study a particular foreign language.
In Udon Pittayanukoon School there is also a Biology curriculum in accordance with the Basic Education Core Curriculum, B.E. 2008, with the aim of developing student quality and learning management processes. To provide a framework and direction for the implementation of teaching and learning. The group of science subjects aims for students to study science that emphasizes connecting knowledge with processes, and have important skills in researching and creating knowledge. There are various practical activities according to their level, one of which is biology. This lesson learn about studies life in the environment, components of living things, supporting human and animal life, plant life, genetics, biodiversity and evolution of living things. Each material will be divided according to class level (grade).
Udon Pittayanukoon uses 5E for Science Lesson Plan, as well as biology. The 5E model is a learning framework that enhances student learning by active involvement and exploration. There are Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, and Evaluate
Engage: In this phase, students are stimulated to arouse their curiosity. For example, starting the lesson by asking thought-provoking questions such as, "Why do we need food if our bodies break it down?" or showing an interesting video about how food moves through the digestive system.
Explore: Students begin to explore the given topic. They begin to build every information about the given topic. Students can work in groups, such as observing picture/ diagrams, conducting simple experiments (such as showing digestion using bread and soda as stomach acid), or researching the organs involved in digestion.
Explain: Students explain the concepts they found from the results of the exploration. In this phase, students can discuss each other's findings and find conclusions from the concepts obtained. While the teacher can facilitate students to clarify misconceptions and explain key concepts.
Elaborate: In this phase, students can imply their knowledge to previous knowledge or apply it to new situations.
Evaluate: This phase assesses students learning and reflection, can use quizzes, discussion groups, worksheets. This is done to see how far understanding can be accepted and what should be evaluated by students and teachers.
