Abstract

The research entitled “Development System for Instructional Management Based on the Four Noble Truths for the Sufficiency Economy Philosophy Course among Students of the Faculty of Education, Mahachulalongkornrajavidyalaya University” had four objectives: 1) to study the body of knowledge and current conditions, 2) to develop the system, 3) to implement the system, and 4) to evaluate the system. The research employed Research and Development (R&D). The system was implemented with 64 students of the Faculty of Education, and the system was evaluated by experts. The research instruments included a questionnaire, an interview form, a knowledge test, and a system evaluation form. The data were analyzed using frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, a t-test for related samples, and Cohen’s dz.


The research findings revealed that 1. The current conditions of instructional management, overall, were at a moderate level, with a mean of 3.42 and a standard deviation of 0.67. 2. The developed system consisted of four steps: Problem Awareness, Cause Analysis, Goal Setting, and Action Planning, referred to as the  PCGA Model, which corresponded to the principles of Dukkha, Samudaya, Nirodha, and Magga. 3. The results of the system implementation showed that the post-test mean score of 38.26 was significantly higher than the pre-test mean score of 28.47 at the .01 level, with t = 34.72, df = 63, and Cohen’s dz = 4.34; and 4. The overall results of the system evaluation by experts were at the highest level, with a mean of 4.69 and a standard deviation of 0.59.
