This paper shows the implementing a presentation skill in C programming at Phetchaburi Rajabhat University for students from the Electrical Engineering major. Presentation skills are considered essential for undergraduate education to prepare students for various career opportunities. By focusing on a group of 20 students and assessing their performance in the second semester of 2022, this study indicated that students' abilities in learning and understanding programming theory increased by 30%. Their self-confidence improved by 60%, and their abilities in speaking and answering questions from the audience increased by 45%. Additionally, it was observed that students at the top of the class, with a grade point average (GPA) of 3.00-4.00, relied on their understanding to write programs independently for 100%. Students with a GPA of 2.5-2.8 used their understanding along with examples and writing some parts of program independently for 40%. On the other hand, students with a GPA of 2.00-2.4 primarily relied on the examples they had studied.
This demonstrates that the ability to apply effort in self-learning and self-program development is associated with students who perform well or are in the intermediate range academically.
