บทคัดย่อ
This research examines the intricate relationship between technology integration and its dual impact on human capital development and institutional effectiveness within vocational education settings. Through a mixed-methods design incorporating quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews from 312 vocational institutions across diverse regions, this study investigates how systematic technology integration influences educational outcomes and institutional performance. The research utilized a structured survey instrument, semi-structured interviews, and institutional performance metrics analysis. Findings reveal strong positive associations between technology integration and human capital development (r = 0.78, p < 0.001), and significant improvements in institutional effectiveness (β = 0.65, p < 0.001). The study highlights key enabling factors such as infrastructure readiness, faculty digital competency, and adaptive institutional policies. These findings underscore the novel contribution of linking technology integration to dual outcomes and provide practical implications for administrators and policymakers in vocational education. The research concludes by proposing a comprehensive, evidence-based framework for technology integration that balances human capital development with institutional effectiveness goals.
