Abstract

This research aimed at a development on a Board Game to promote an Information literacy for lower secondary students. The research was carried out by conducting a literature review, focus group interviews, and prototype testing on a sample population of 1,184 junior high school students from the Demonstration School of Srinakharinwirot University Prasarnmit (Secondary) in the academic year of 2022. The first interview group consisted of 15 volunteer students who were divided into two groups: those who had prior experience playing board games (8 students) and those who did not (7 students) with the purpose of creating a prototype board game. The second interview group consisted of 11 volunteer students who were interviewed and tested with the prototype. The results of the study indicated that the board game designed to promote information literacy among junior high school students at the Demonstration School of Srinakharinwirot University Prasarnmit (Secondary) required students to plan, choose information retrieval tools, and comprehend referencing and bibliography, which is a type of information literacy. Information literacy is a skill that must be learned and practiced as it is not innate. Therefore, students must utilize decision-making, analysis, synthesis, and observation skills to acquire the knowledge of finding information on their own. The future development of board games should involve online database research to ensure that the gameplay is in line with the digital era.
