Synthesis Study of Model and Components of Electronic Performance and Personal Learning Support System to Enhance Competency of Teacher Professional

Abstract

The objective of this descriptive research was to construct a conceptual framework and a model of support systems that enhance teachers’ competencies in performance and personal learning process. There were 2 phases of study. Phase 1 involved a literature review, survey of stakeholders’ attitudes and synthesis of the data to construct a conceptual framework and a model of the support systems. The research instruments consist of 1) the content analysis tables, 2) interview form for specialists and student teacher competency improvement, 3) specialists’ questionnaire for components and processes of the system, 4) evaluation form for the confirmation of the system’s process, and 5) questionnaire for student teachers’ needs analysis. The methods for analysis include 1) analysis of frequency deriving from the content analysis table 2) content synthesis from interviews 3) Analysis of average, congruency of components and processes of the system 4) Analysis of evaluation point average for the confirmation of the component-process framework. Phase 2 involved the validation of the framework and the systems. Instrument consists of evaluation form to confirm the framework and the model of the system. The framework comprised: 1) competencies in curriculum and learning management, 2) a competency-based approach, 3) an electronic performance support system , 4) a personal learning environment (PLE) and PLE-driven learning process, and 5) on-the-job training through coaching. The analysis method includes 1) Analysis of evaluation on the IOC 2) Analysis of the point average evaluation to confirm framework and the model system. It was found that the framework and the systems comprised: 1) components and 2) processes. The components covered resources and results. The processes included those supporting the personnel performance and students’ learning processes.
