Abstract

     The  purposes  of  this  research  were  (1)  to  compare  learning  responsibility  of  the  experimental  group  students  before  and  after  using  a  guidance  activities  package  and  (2)  to  compare  learning  responsibility  of  the  experimental  group  students  before  and  follow-up.

     The  population  consisted  of  first  year  students  with  hearing  impairment  in  the  Vocational  Diploma  Program  of  Buddha  Monthon  Industrial  and  Community  Education  College  in  Nakhon  Pathom  Province,  during  the  second  semester  of  2021  academic  year  15  students.  The  employed  research  instruments  were  (1)  a  guidance  activities  package  to  develop  learning  responsibility; (2)  a  scale  to  assess  learningresponsibility, with  0.77  reliability  coefficient; and  (3)  the  learning  responsibility  observation  form.  The  employment  statistic  for  data  analysis  were  the  mean  and  standard  deviation.

     The  research  findings  were  as  follows; (1)  the  post-experiment  learning  responsibility  of  the  experimental  group  students, who  used  the  guidance  activities  package  for  develop  learning  responsibility, were  significantly  higher  than  their  pre-experiment; and  (2)  the  post-experiment  learning  responsibility  of  the  experimental  group  students, who  used  the  guidance  activities  package  to  develop  learning  responsibility, was  significantly  higher  than  their  follow-up.
