The Learning Management Model of the Mechanics Field at Detudom Technical College

Abstract

          The objectives of this study were 1) to investigate the competency based of profession and the learning management model of the mechanics field, 2) to create and check the learning management model of the mechanics field, 3) to experiment the learning management model of the mechanics field and 4) to evaluate the results after the experiment of the model at Detudom Technical College. The target group was from all the teachers of the mechanics field who taught the Vocational Certificate students who enrolled to study at Detudom Technical College in the academic year of 2015. The statistics used were the mean (X –) and the standard deviation (S.D.).

          The results were as follows:

          1. The competency based on mechanics students and the learning management model of the mechanics field that the workplace required, consisted of 6 core competencies I.e. being able to check the quality of work after production, being able to use basic mechanical tools, being able to design and design by using computer programs, such as, mechanical control (CNC) and, being able to make sharpening devices and clamping devices to enhance mechanical maintenance skills.

          2. The learning management model of the mechanics field at Detudom Technical College included five main components: the purpose of learning the management model; the learning management committees; the competency of the mechanics students which the workplace required; elements of learning management; and, the process of learning
management. All these components of the model were appropriate and very high

3. The results of the experiment using the learning management model of the mechanics field at Detudom Technical College showed that the competency of professional students was very high.

4. The result of the post-experimental evaluation of the learning management model showed that all components were feasible and useful. The success mean was at 4.27 and 4.40. The workplace had satisfaction for the competency and professionality of mechanics students at a good mean level of 4.25 and the result of the focus group interview found out that the learning management model of the mechanics field was appropriate and could continue to use this to manage learning.
