Administrations of the sample consisted of 1,122 teachers who taught and students who sat at the 9th grade level in 33 schools with the Multistage Random sampling technique. Using both the high quality of the research instruments was validated and reliable with the questionnaire evidence of 0.912, to measure achievement motivation confidence of 0.906 and attitude test with a confidence of 0.908, respectively. Statistically significant analyzed with the descriptive statistics and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), the multilevel confirmatory factor analysis (MCFA) and structural equation modeling analysis and the study of ways to promote the effectiveness guidelines of learner qualities in the opportunity expansion schools with seminar was based on the expert connoisseurship both quantitative and qualitative data were analyzed. The results of the research findings as the effectiveness guideline level indicated as a whole at the medium level. The causal factors of learning motivation and attitude towards students’ learning outcomes were related at the high level. The causal factors were also found between increasing the effectiveness guidelines of learner qualities and their motivation and attitude towards to their learning outcomes with the learning processes were consistency with the empirical data ( = 120.544, df = 111, P = 0.252, CFI = 0.999, TLI = 0.999, RMSEA = 0.009, SRMRW = 0.029, SRMRB = 0.132, and  = 1.086). The effect sizes and influences considered directly as the highest evidence of 0.919, 0.792, and 0.292 with their affecting learning processes, attitudes, achievement motivations at the relation level of 0.01, respectively. The guidelines for learning processes consisted of four main components that followed as: introduction, the thinking processing knowledge, practical schooling guideline, and practical classroom guideline. The assessing experts were evaluated to qualify causal factors and increasing the effectiveness guidelines of learner qualities to their appropriateness and feasibility are provided at the highest level, interestingly.  Article visualizations

DEVELOPING THE EVALUATION MODEL OF THE LEARNER DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES FOR PRIMARY EDUCATIONAL STUDENTS

The aims of this research study developed a model evaluation to assess the activity development of students in the Primary Education level in Thailand. The research was conducted by the research and development (R&D) process that it was administered in two phases; to investigate on analyzes the concept of student development activities, assessment of student development activities in primary school classes, and theory-driven evaluation and interviews with those involved with the activities of the students was the first phase. The second phase, creating an evaluation model to assess activity development for primary educational students. The third phase, to trial evaluation model by experimenting with different sized schools which sample consisted of nine schools, including small, medium, and expansion opportunity schools. The fourth phase, to assess the evaluation model that it has developed the tools used to assess the valuation model based on the evaluation of standards development committee to evaluate educational standards. The assessment is the evaluation of the experiment involving 18 experiments. It has found that; to investigation evaluated the events and activities of the primary educational students composed of textbooks, academic papers, the report showed that the factors used to evaluate the activity development of primary students in three key areas: planning activities for developing learners, processing development activities’ learners, and the characteristics of learners were satisfied. The evaluation model to evaluate activity development of primary educational students composed of eight elements, such as; principal, purpose, to be aimed at assessing the objective things, the tools used to evaluate, users assessment form, how to analyze assessment results, evaluation criteria, and assessment report. The experimental evaluation model to evaluate the activity development of primary educational students, the research study has found that expert on the evaluation model has given their opinions on the assessment form. The results are at the high appropriate level in all aspects and all indications are 3 aspects to planning development activities, process development activities for learners, and the quality characteristics of the students. The trial has not found of problems in the form of assessment. Finally, the developing evaluation model to evaluate activity development of primary education students, this is a theoretical validity, the opinions’ experts opine that the item can be measured according to measurement higher than 80%, and the possibilities are appropriate, and to be accurately, comprehensively.

DEVELOPMENT OF AN ASSESSMENT MODEL ON PARALLEL EDUCATIONAL MANAGEMENT IN THE ACADEMY SCHOOLS UNDER OFFICE OF THE BASIC EDUCATION COMMISSION

This research was intended to develop a model for assessing the parallel educational management under the Office of the Basic Education Commission (OBEC). To administer of the research procedure in four phases that were conducted by the research process and followed as R&D research technique. The first phase has analyzed the concepts of education and evaluation of education parallel, under the OBEC and interviews of nine personnels with those involved of parallel education management. The second phase has created a parallel evaluation of education for assessing the academy schools under the OBEC. The third phase has trial evaluation model into three schools of education had a parallel educational management whereas were facing a different size small, medium and large. The fourth phase has developed the assessment model by the tools that based on the Evaluation of Standards Development Committee to evaluate educational standards with a sample size of 9 personnels who were the evaluators of the experiment involving assessment. It has found that: the concept of learning management and assessment of parallel educational management in the OBEC from textbooks, academic papers, the research reports showed that the components used in the evaluation of parallel education major has five components, such as; the principle of parallel structures, curriculum and learning and teaching, and a graduate of quality assurance. The assessment model consists of six components of the basic education forms were composed as the main concepts of evaluation, the purpose of the assessment, the evaluation focused on how to assess the evaluation, and assessment criteria. In terms of the results take the form of assessment of this experimental model used to evaluate the standard of parallel education study of the OBEC between schools with different sizes, the results showed on five standards that included of; the standard of education in parallel, standards curriculum, standard of teaching and learning, standard course, and standard of quality assurance. A quality level, all very standard and metric, and the trial found no problems in the form of assessment. The assessment model assesses the parallel education of schools under the OBEC were at the highest level all on four scales, such as Possibilities scale ( = 4.74, S.D. = 0.51), Appropriation scale ( = 4.63, S.D. = 0.49), Accuracy scales ( = 4.61, S.D. = 0.51), and Utility scale ( = 4.54, S.D. = 0.51), respectively.  Article visualizations

THE CREATING EVALUATION MODEL ON DESIRABLE CHARACTERISTICS OF STUDENT MORALS ACCORDING TO THE PROMOTING EDUCATIONAL ACT FOR NON-FORMAL AND INFORMAL EDUCATION CENTERS
