Abstract:
The objectives of this research were to 1) study the components of research-based learning management for teaching industrial subjects under the Office of the Vocational Education Commission, 2) develop of research-based learning management model for teaching industrial subjects under the Office of the Vocational Education Commission, 3) develop a manual of research-based learning management for teaching industrial subjects under the office of the Vocational Education Commission, and 4) evaluate the of research-based learning management model for teaching industrial subjects under the office of the Vocational Education Commission. The research results are as follows:
Step 1: A study of the components of research-based learning management for teaching industrial subjects under the Office of the Vocational Education Commission was conducted, divided into two phases. Phase 1: in-depth interviews with eight experts and Phase 2: a focus group brainstorming by twelve vocational teachers selected by quota. The results found that learning management using the research-base from vocational teachers should consists of learners, teachers and management/learning processes. Research-based learning management can be divided into two types: including using the research process as a base for learning and the use of research results in learning management. Step 2: Development of research-based learning management.The learning management model was evaluated by nine experts.The data were analyzed by evaluating the consistency indices in 3 aspects: 1) learning preparation 2) learning management and 3) learning achievement. The evaluation results showed that the consistency index was at the highest level.Step 3: Development of a research-based learning management manual for industrial subjects under the Office of the Vocational Education Commission evaluated by six experts. The results of the evaluation found that, overall, the manual was appropriate at the highest level.Step 4: An evaluation of the research-based learning management model for teaching in industrial subjects under the Office of the Vocational Education Commission. The samples were selected through cluster random sampling for 45 students in the 2nd year of Vocational Certificate Program in Electrical Power, 1st semester of the academic year 2020. The research instruments were; 1) a learning management plan, 2) an achievement test, and 3) an opinion assessment form.
The results of the management models found that (1) By using research-based processes, for learning management, the scores were increased by 82.4%, (2) According to the research-based results, scores increased by 81.00%, (3) By using learning management in traditional teaching, scores increased by 53.2%, 4) The students' scores showed a statistically significant difference with the use of traditional and research-based teaching at the level of .05 The students opinion toward the research-based teaching and learning in industrial subjects was the highest in overall.
