Problems of Private use in copyright.

2024-04-30T00:32:26+07:00

This research is qualitative research (Qualitative research) with the objective of studying the problem of the nature and criteria for using copyrighted works for one's own benefit. Quantity and proportion of use for one's own benefit in copyrighted work. and the extent of the use of the court's discretion in adjudicating cases according to the principle of use for one's own benefit in copyrighted works. By comparing Thai and international laws regarding use for one's own benefit. Including comparing the laws of Japan, England, France, and the United States.

The results of the study reveal that Thai and international laws still have problems in determining the nature and criteria for use for personal gain in copyrighted works. Including the problem of using discretion to consider the amount and proportion of use for one's own benefit in copyrighted works. However, international law itself specifies this principle broadly, allowing member countries to make their own choices under the principle of leniency. Protect copyright that takes into account the balance of benefits between the rights holder and the public. The guidelines for weighing and prioritizing various factors state that, in cases where the weight of the factors is close, the fourth factor—the impact on the value of the work and the market—should be considered the crucial final factor. This is because it is a key element reflecting the impact on the copyright holder's motivation to create the work and its effect on the economic development cycle. In determining whether something is considered fair use, all four factors should be weighed together, and it should not be assumed that conflict with any one factor immediately constitutes copyright infringement. This is to allow for flexibility and careful judgment.

Development of a learning activity Package for Development of SAW-U variation skill.

2025-06-10T17:51:37+07:00

This research aims to (1) develop a learning activity package to enhance melodic adaptation skills for the Saw-U and (2) examine the learning achievement of students after implementing the developed activity package. The study employs a Research & Development (R&D) methodology, integrating qualitative and quantitative approaches. Data were collected through interviews with five experts in Thai string instruments to design a learning activity package based on Bloom’s cognitive domain theory. The package was then implemented with ten Saw-U major students aged 15–20 from the College of Dramatic Arts. Pre- and post-learning assessments were conducted using practical performance tests, and statistical analysis was applied to evaluate the results.

The findings reveal that Saw-u melodic adaptation requires a fundamental understanding of the core melody, particularly the Luk Tok (melodic cadential tones), which serve as essential structural components of a piece. Additionally, selecting appropriate melodic phrases and considering the tonal range of the Saw-U are crucial to achieving melodic coherence. The developed learning activity package consists of six activities: (1) Thai musical scales, (2) the core melody, (3) utilization of melodic phrases, (4) Saw-U melodic adaptation, (5) collaborative learning, and (6) Saw-U melodic creation. The experimental results show that the students' mean pre-test score was 19.10 (SD = 2.45), equivalent to 38.20%, while the mean post-test score significantly increased to 43.90 (SD = 3.10), or 87.80%, out of a total score of 50. A t-test analysis revealed a statistically significant difference at the .05 level (t = 7.85, p < .001), demonstrating that the developed learning activity package effectively enhances Saw-U melodic adaptation skills.

Legal problems regarding emergency vehicles transporting patients under the Land Traffic Act of 1979: A study of the emergency lane case

2025-10-11T11:01:26+07:00

This Research Article aims to study the legal issues related to emergency patient transport vehicles under the Land Traffic Act B.E. 2522 (1979). It specifically examines the issue of emergency lanes and seeks to propose solutions and additional measures to enhance the efficiency, speed, and safety of emergency patient transport operations. Furthermore, it proposes increasing penalties for those who violate laws related to the operations of such emergency vehicles.The study focuses on four key issues (1) Issues encountered when emergency patient transport vehicles are performing their duties Despite the provisions in Section 76 and the prescribed authority under Section 127 of the Land Traffic Act B.E. 2522, some drivers still fail to yield or obstruct emergency vehicles on the road, which remains a prevalent issue today. (2) Penalties stipulated in the Land Traffic Act B.E. 2522 (amended by the 13th version B.E. 2565): Section 152, in conjunction with Section 21, provides for fines. However, when compared with international standards, Thailand’s penalties are significantly lower. (3) Definition issues of the term “emergency vehicle”: According to Section 4 of the Land Traffic Act B.E. 2522, the definition is interpreted as referring solely to government vehicles. It does not clearly include private-sector emergency vehicles. (4) Issues related to the term “emergency vehicle lane”: As defined in the Royal Gazette regulation concerning traffic officer rules in the Bangkok Metropolitan Area for organizing lanes for emergency vehicles B.E. 2559 (2016), this is currently limited only to Bangkok. Additionally, drivers are required to wait until they see or hear sirens before yielding, which delays the response.

Study results Based on these four findings, this thesis proposes the following amendments to the Land Traffic Act B.E. 2522 Increase the penalty fines under Sections 148 and 152, and require offenders to undergo driver training Add new legal provisions regarding “emergency vehicle lanes” to ensure nationwide applicability Develop emergency lanes in a way that does not depend on the immediate presence or siren of an emergency vehicle within designated emergency lane zones.
