Educational Institution Curriculum Management model focusing on meaningful life learning outcomes of students in basic education level
Abstract:
The objectives of this research were: (1) to study the conceptual framework of valuable life learning outcomes for students in basic education ; (2) to study the approaches to curriculum management of educational institutions focusing on valuable life learning outcomes of students in basic education ; (3) to develop and validate a curriculum management model and its implementation manual focusing on valuable life learning outcomes of students in basic education ; and (4) to study the implementation results of the developed model. This study employed a multi-phase mixed methods design, consisting of four phases aligned with the research objectives. Data were collected through document analysis, interviews with best-practice schools, workshops, and expert seminars. The participants included seven experts, ten best-practice schools, ten specialists, and four pilot schoolscomprising 45 administrators, teachers, and educational personnel in total. Research instruments included a conceptual framework synthesis form, focus group record form, conceptual framework validation form, structured interview form, model validation form, and model implementation evaluation form. Data were analyzed using mean, standard deviation, and content analysis. The research findings revealed that: (1) The conceptual framework of valuable life learning outcomes consisted of four main components, eleven subcomponents, and forty-six indicators, all of which were validated as highly accurate and appropriate. (2) The curriculum management approaches focusing on valuable life learning outcomes comprised five stages: analyzing needs and value-based contexts, designing a curriculum for life value, developing and integrating curriculum practices, organizing valuable life learning activities, and evaluating, enhancing, and improving the curriculum. (3) The MLLO Model (Meaningful Life Learning Outcomes Model) consisted of seven main components, and the model implementation manual included eight elements. The validation results indicated that both the model and the manual were rated at the highest level of appropriateness and accuracy in all aspects. (4) The results of the model implementation showed that the overall level of model application was high. Students valuable life learning outcomes improved in all areas, particularly in what they love and what the world needs. The users of the model expressed high satisfaction, and the evaluation results confirmed the models feasibility and usefulness at the highest level, meeting all specified criteria.
