Abstract
The research employed mixed methods, with the following objectives: 1) to study the components and indicators of digital learning culture in primary schools under Chaiyaphum Primary Education Service Area Office 3; 2) to examine the consistency of the indicator model of the digital learning culture in primary schools under Chaiyaphum Primary Education Service Area Office 3, that the author had constructed, with empirical data; 3) to create and evaluate a model for development of digital learning culture in primary schools under Chaiyaphum Primary Education Service Area Office 3. The sample of 270 administrators and teachers was obtained by multistage sampling. The tool used for data collection was a 5-level rating scale questionnaire with the content validity between 0.80 to 1.00 and the total reliability of 0.967. The analysis of data employed descriptive and inferential statistics and SPSS program. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was performed with the Mplus program. Drafting of the model was carried out by interviewing, followed by assessing the suitability, possibility and usefulness of the model.
The research results were as follows:
1. The digital learning culture in primary schools consisted of 5 elements: 1) digital blended personnel training, having 2 indicators with 5 behavioral indicators; 2) on-line social collaboration values, having 2 indicators with 5 behavioral indicators; (3) digital competency, having 3 indicators with 8 behavioral indicators; (4) digital leadership, having 3 indicators with 8 behavioral indicators; (5) digital learning environment, having 3 indicators with 7 behavioral indicators.

/ df = 1.324, P-Value = 0.0754, RMSEA = 0.035, SRMR = 0.023, CFI = 0.996, TLI = 0.992.
3.The evaluation results of the model for development of digital learning culture in primary schools revealed that the model consists of the name, principle and concept, objective, achievement goal, and mechanism for success. The result of the model evaluation indicated that the model was suitable, possible and useful at the highest level.
