DEVELOPMENT OF PROFESSIONAL LEARNING COMMUNITY MODEL TO PROMOTE ACTIVE LEARNING MANAGEMENT AT CHOMCHON WAT BANGKHAN SCHOOL, KLONG LUANG DISTRICT, PATHUM THANI PROVINCE

Abstract

This research article aimed to develop a professional learning community model to promote active learning management at Chomchon Wat Bang Khan School, Khlong Luang District, Pathum Thani Province. It was a research and development with four steps. Step 1: Studying basic information by interviewing 40 teachers and 6 experts using a structured interview form. Step 2: Creating the model by designing and drafting the model. The model and model guide were then reviewed for suitability by 7 experts using an expert-referencing seminar and a suitability checklist. Data were analyzed by finding means and standard deviations. Step 3: Studying the results of using the model by testing the developed model with research participants, namely 40 teachers from Chomchon Wat Bang Khan School. Step 4: Evaluating the model in 3 aspects: input factors, process and output using an evaluation form, analyze the mean and standard deviation.

The research results found that the necessary information for developing a professional learning community model included promoting the design and writing of learning management plans and organizing learning activities that emphasized student participation. Teachers needed to develop their learning design, learning activity organization, and learning management techniques. The professional learning community model to promote active learning management consisted of principles, objectives, processes, measurement and evaluation under the conditions of paradigm adjustment and preparation, development of learning management ideas and strategies, teaching and classroom observation, reflection and mutual learning, and dissemination and networking. The results of the experiment using the professional learning community model to promote active learning at Chomchon Wat Bang Khan School found that overall, it was highly appropriate.
