The Management Model of Senior Scouts Activities Affecting Students' Patriotism Under the Jurisdiction of Chonburi Primary Educational Service Area Office 2

Abstract

This research aimed to: 1) study the current conditions, problems, and approaches to the management of senior scout activities for student development; 2) develop a management model for senior scout activities; 3) examine the results of implementing the developed model; and 4) evaluate the appropriateness and usefulness of the model. The study revealed that the components of an effective management model for senior scout activities that foster patriotism among students consist of five key aspects: policy, participation, curriculum, personnel, and instructional management. The developed model comprised four main parts: 1) introduction, 2) implementation process, 3) evaluation, and 4) conditions for application. The implementation results demonstrated that: 1) all seven administrative policies were achieved as intended; 2) collaboration from seven expert stakeholders significantly supported activity implementation; 3) the "Senior Scout for Patriotism" curriculum covered essential areas including structure, content, learning activities, and assessment; and 4) 80 trained personnel participated in implementation, and formal cooperation (MOU) was established among educational agencies in Chonburi Province. The outcome of the implementation showed a high level of patriotism among students, with a moderate difference between pre- and post-implementation levels. Furthermore, administrators, scoutmasters, students, and parents expressed high satisfaction with the curriculum. The evaluation indicated that the model’s overall appropriateness and usefulness were rated at a high level in all aspects.
