The Dissemination of the Model for Enhancing Learning Management Competency to Develop 21st Learners for Elementary School Teachers

Abstract

The main purpose of this research was to disseminate the model on enhancing learning management competency to develop learners in the 21^st century for elementary school teachers. The sample was 58 elementary school teachers in the academic year 2019 under the Primary Educational Service Area Office Pathum Thani. The researcher conducted the dissemination by using One group pretest-posttest design. Cluster random sampling was used to random elementary school teachers. Research tools included documentation about the model, a test for measuring knowledge and understanding about learning management, a form for assessing learning management skills, a form for measuring the attributes that were conducive to learning management, and a form of after action review. The data were analyzed by using Percentage, Mean, Standard Deviation, One Sample T-Test, Dependent Samples T-Test, and Content Analysis.

Results of the research were as follows :

1. The teachers who were developed according to the model had knowledge and understanding competency in learning management in the 21^st century after the experiment using the model higher than before the experiment and higher than the set criterion of 70 percent with statistical significance at the .01 level.

2. The teachers who were developed according to the model had competency in learning management skills in the 21^st century after the experiment using the model higher than the set criterion of 70 percent with statistical significance at the .01 level.

3. The teachers who were developed according to the model had competency in attributes conducive to learning management in the 21^st century after the experiment higher than before the experiment with statistical significance at the .01 level.

4. The teachers’ opinions towards the model showed that they were satisfied by the activity provided at high level, they recognized good teacher roles and responsibilities to enhance learning management, they worked and collaborated systematically, and they reflected that the mindset towards learning management in the 21^st century were at high level.
