Abstract

This research is a developmental study (R&D) with four objectives: 1) to examine the current problems and directions for improving learning management, 2) to develop a learning management model, 3) to experiment with the developed model, and 4) to study the outcomes of using the learning management model to foster Buddhist volunteerism and social responsibility among students in schools under the Maha Sarakham Secondary Educational Service Area Office. In phase 1, the sample included 331 Grade 12 students from Phadungnaree School and 10 social studies teachers from 5 schools. Data were collected using questionnaires and analyzed with descriptive statistics such as frequency, percentage, x̄, and standard deviation, along with qualitative analysis through interviews. Phase 2 involved 10 experts providing feedback in focus group discussions, while phase 3 tested the model with 30 Grade 12 students from Phadungnaree School using knowledge, skills, and attitude assessments. In phase 4, stakeholders evaluated the effectiveness, efficiency, and impact of the model through group discussions and content analysis. The findings showed that the model significantly improved knowledge (x̄ = 4.25), skills (x̄ = 4.09), and attitudes (x̄ = 4.08) related to Buddhist volunteerism and social responsibility. Overall, the model was rated as highly effective (x̄ = 4.05), with efficiency (x̄ = 4.13) and impact (x̄ = 4.33) also rated highly, indicating the model's success in enhancing desired characteristics in students.
