Application of Learning Resources for Lifelong Learning

Kittisak Khongphun — 2025-08-01

This academic article presents approaches for applying learning resources to facilitate lifelong learning through a study of analytical documents, concepts, theories related to lifelong learning, and successful case studies that utilize learning resources for lifelong learning. The findings indicate that there are three main approaches to applying learning resources for lifelong learning: (1) the application of educational learning resources, which serve as a foundation for research, a source for skill and experience training, a venue for learning activities, and a place for conducting out-of-class learning activities; (2) the application of social learning resources, which involves developing skills and knowledge, building communities and networks, enhancing access to information and knowledge, promoting participation, and supporting innovation and change; and (3) the application of cultural learning resources, which act as repositories for preserving the culture of communities, localities, and the nation, as well as serving as centers for studying and learning about the culture of communities, localities, and the nation.

Information Seeking and Usage of Graduate Students at Nakhon Si Thammarat Rajabhat University

Sitawit Suksom — 2025-08-01

This research aims to study the information seeking and usage behaviors, as well as the challenges faced by graduate students at Nakhon Si Thammarat Rajabhat University. The sample consists of first and second-year graduate students who are registered for the second semester of the academic year 2023, totaling 174 individuals. Data were collected using a questionnaire and analyzed using statistical methods including frequency, percentage, mean, and standard deviation.The findings reveal that (1) students have a moderate overall need for information seeking, with a high level of engagement in seeking information from online databases in Thailand. They often conduct searches using multiple keywords and utilize information for academic purposes such as report writing and seminars. (2) Regarding the challenges in information seeking, students experience moderate difficulties in searching for information, such as using excessively long keywords or making typographical errors. However, when they cannot find the desired information, students adapt by changing their keywords to related terms and searching across multiple sources. Other challenges identified at a moderate level include a lack of familiarity with the required information sources and difficulties in understanding foreign languages.

Development of a Chatbot for Answering Questions and Promoting the Digital Business Computer Program at Sisaket Rajabhat University

lattagarn kuikaew — 2025-08-01

This research aims to (1) develop a chatbot for answering questions and promoting the Digital Business Computer program at Sisaket Rajabhat University, (2) evaluate the effectiveness of the chatbot for answering questions and promoting the Digital Business Computer program, and (3) assess user satisfaction with the chatbot for answering questions and promoting the Digital Business Computer program. The sample used in the research consists of 2 computer experts, 1 public relations expert, and 30 students interested in the Digital Business Computer program. The research tools include an effectiveness assessment form and a satisfaction assessment form. The statistical methods used in the research are mean and standard deviation. The research findings indicate that (1) the chatbot can respond to users in two formats: automatic replies and responses from the system administrator. Users can access the chatbot using the LINE ID @106hlwou. The chatbot can promote and answer questions regarding enrollment, tuition fees, credit transfers, and contact information, which helps reduce the burden on administrators in answering queries. (2) The evaluation of the chatbot's effectiveness shows that its overall performance is at the highest level (Mean = 4.75, S.D. = 0.43). The chatbot meets user needs, ensures data security, functions as intended, and is easy to use. Additionally, the chatbot has an accuracy and precision average of 0.95, demonstrating its effective performance. (3) The evaluation of user satisfaction with the chatbot reveals that overall satisfaction is at the highest level (Mean = 4.52, S.D. = 0.50). Users can quickly learn how to use the chatbot without needing guidance, and the chatbot provides reliable information sources and covers a wide range of questions in its interactions.

Information System for Aquatic Plants in the Lower Northern Region

Apisamai Kamjanta — 2025-08-01

This research aims to (1) develop an information system for aquatic plants in the lower northern region of Thailand and (2) evaluate user satisfaction with the aquatic plant information system in the same area. The methodology consists of three main steps: (1) the data collection phase, which involves gathering information on aquatic plants from the research titled "Diversity of Aquatic Plant Species Found in the Lower Northern Region of Thailand" (Apitsara Honghirun, 2021). This study categorizes aquatic plants into four types: riparian plants, emergent plants, submerged plants, and floating plants. (2) The system development phase, where the researcher analyzed and designed the system using PHP for development and MySQL for database management. The system's main functions include managing aquatic plant data, managing provincial data, managing administrator data, managing aquatic plant type data, and managing aquatic plant image data. (3) The user satisfaction evaluation phase involved a targeted sample of 100 individuals, revealing an overall satisfaction level rated as good, with a mean score of 4.17 and a standard deviation of 0.768. This indicates that the majority of users expressed clear satisfaction, with the highest satisfaction reported for the management of aquatic plant data, followed by system usability and system design, all of which were rated as good.

Creating a Three-Dimensional Model Using Google SketchUp for First-Year Secondary School Students at Chollatharn Wittaya School

Anupong Mepark — 2025-08-01

This research aims to (1) develop multimedia materials on creating three-dimensional models using Google SketchUp, (2) compare the learning outcomes before and after using multimedia in conjunction with blended learning management, and (3) evaluate the satisfaction of students learning through multimedia combined with blended learning management. The sample for this study consists of 30 first-year secondary school students from Chollatharn Wittaya School, selected through purposive sampling with classrooms as the unit of selection. The research tools include multimedia materials, lesson plans, pre-test and post-test assessments, and a satisfaction evaluation form. The statistical methods used for data analysis include mean and standard deviation. The research findings indicate that (1) the multimedia materials consist of content across three learning units, with overall quality in terms of content and technical methods rated at a high level (Mean = 4.50, S.D. = 0.38). (2) The average post-test scores were significantly higher than the pre-test scores at the .01 level. (3) Overall, students expressed a high level of satisfaction (Mean = 4.44, S.D. = 0.39) with the multimedia materials used in conjunction with blended learning management.

Using IoT System for Borrowing and Returning of Teaching Equipment in the Electrical Field

Yutti Chatwaranon — 2025-08-01

This study focuses on addressing the problem of equipment loss within the electrical engineering department at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Bangkok Thonburi University. The research objectives are twofold: (1) to develop and assess an application that utilizes LINE Notify for real-time notifications, integrating data collected through Google Forms; and (2) to create a system for storing borrower information using Google Sheets as the database, which allows for effective tracking and verification of equipment usage. Testing of the system demonstrated that it successfully records equipment borrowing through Google Forms and securely stores this information in Google Sheets for administrative oversight. The system provides timely notifications and detailed updates via LINE Notify, enabling administrators to approve borrowing requests through web browsers and applications. The results indicate that this system effectively mitigates equipment loss and enhances monitoring and management efficiency.
