และหวังผลแบบเปลี่ยนรูปในสองมิติ THE TRANSFORMATION MODEL OF PHETCHABURI RAJABHAT UNIVERSITY BY USING TWO-DIMENSIONAL PREDICTION AND HOPE FOR RESULTS

Abstract

This study aimed 1) To review relevant documents and research in order to construct a two-dimensional conceptual framework for curriculum development, and 2) To develop a transformative model for predicting future curriculum directions in two dimensions. A Mixed Methods Research approach was employed, drawing on key sources including the National Education Act B.E. 2542, the 20-Year National Strategy for Education, the National Education Plan, higher education curriculum standards, professional standards, and prior research. The researcher synthesized this body of knowledge to propose systematic directions for transforming the education system in alignment with current contexts and emerging future competencies. The findings revealed that the two-dimensional curriculum development model comprises two major dimensions. Dimension 1 involves a bachelor’s degree curriculum offering two learning pathway options: Plan 1-a 15-week classroom-based program, and Plan 2-a hybrid program integrating block-course learning with Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL). Each pathway defines Program Learning Outcomes (PLOs) aligned with learning activities and uses certified national examination centers as a quality control mechanism for assessment. Dimension 2 involves an information-technology platform that identifies individual competencies and utilizes such data to design courses and curricula systematically through a Backward Design process consisting of four core functions: 1) competencies, 2) learning outcomes, 3) courses, and 4) competency-course alignment. The model was verified through Test Case procedures and found to be conceptually valid.
