There is evidence that reading strategies were not widely taught in high schools or middle schools in Thailand, and EFL students hoped that reading strategies should have been taught to them. The findings of this study were conducted on reading comprehension abilities using CALLA, a metacognitive strategy instruction, for four weeks. A one-shot case design was used to investigate the effects of metacognitive strategy instruction on the reading comprehension skills of 15 undergraduate tourism students. During the intervention, they used reading logs to reflect on their metacognitive awareness and self-regulatory mechanisms while they were engaged in reading tasks on the internet. Data from participants' reading logs were analyzed qualitatively. The findings reveal that metacognitive strategy instruction can increase students’ reading comprehension skills. In addition, the results imply that metacognitive awareness increased. Thus, they have become strategic readers and autonomous learners. However, they also require vocabulary and syntax instructions and exercises. In addition, Reading Comprehension Strategies for the Internet should be taught to students. Recommendation 1. Although lower-level students' reading comprehension abilities improved after the four-week metacognitive strategy instruction, instructing lower-level readers should take a longer time. Many models of reading strategies are required for classroom demonstrations. 2 Because of their lack of knowledge of vocabulary and syntax sentences, teachers should review the basics of reading to help them tackle their reading problems, especially some tourism terms and complex syntax in a hypertext on a website.</p> Kongkiat Khunasathitchai, Thaweesak Linkhome Copyright (c) 2024 Pacific Institute of Management Science http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/pacific/article/view/268675 Tue, 31 Dec 2024 00:00:00 +0700 Cosmetic purchasing decision behavior of consumers in Mueang District Phayao Province. https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/pacific/article/view/273648 <p>The objectives of this research are 1) to study personal factors in deciding to purchase cosmetics.

In the research process, self-media accounts are mainly used to publish short videos and pictures related to Chinese traditional clothing culture, and the reactions of followers and background data of some self-media software are used as research objects. Based on existing literature, the influence of self-media accounts, media and communication content are taken as independent variables. With the cognitive-attitudinal-behavioral (ABC attitude theory) and social cognitive theory of psychology as the mediating variables, and the communication effect of traditional Chinese clothing culture as the dependent variable, the relationship between each variable is analyzed. Through the sample data obtained from the questionnaire, quantitative research is conducted to find ways to improve the communication effect. Regarding recommendations for self-media platforms, we suggest enhancing user experience and functionality to attract more users to engage with content related to traditional Chinese clothing culture.</p> <p>This includes providing more intuitive and convenient interface designs, as well as incorporating various interactive features to improve user satisfaction and loyalty. Additionally, we recommend platforms prioritize the promotion of traditional clothing culture content. By optimizing algorithms and personalizing content recommendations, more high-quality traditional cultural content can be presented to users, thereby increasing their exposure to traditional culture information. In terms of self-media influencers or hosts, we recommend that they enhance their professional knowledge and communication skills to increase their influence and appeal. This will encourage more users to explore and disseminate traditional Chinese clothing culture. Additionally, we emphasize the importance of diversity and depth in content. We encourage influencers or hosts to innovate in communication formats and methods to attract audiences with different backgrounds and interests, thereby expanding the audience base for traditional clothing culture.</p> Jianfeng Gao, Somporn Srichum, Anong Rungsuk Copyright (c) 2024 Pacific Institute of Management Science http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/pacific/article/view/274318 Tue, 31 Dec 2024 00:00:00 +0700 A Study of the Needs of Teaching Classical Guitar Practice of Music Campus for General Public, College of Music, Mahidol University https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/pacific/article/view/274428 <h1>The objectives of this research are 1) To study the needs of teaching and learning for classical guitar practice at the music education center for the general public.

The introduction of gamification and digital tools provides essential opportunities for development in the tourism industry. This paper reviews the existing literature on gaming and digital tools for cultural tourism and proposes a new approach that combines gamification and digital tools.</p> <p>The study presents the various stages and methods required to design gamified digital tools for cultural tourism based on the mechanism-dynamic-aesthetic (MDA) framework. It emphasizes how it can adapt to the personalized experience needs of the younger generation. Researchers outline future research areas, focusing on making cultural tourism more sustainable by finding exciting and innovative ways to engage tourists in cultural tourism. The results are of enormous significance for understanding the role of gamification in enhancing the cultural tourism experience and providing application guidance for product design in cultural tourism. Based on the previous user analysis, this study developed a gamification digital tool for cultural tourism based on the MDA framework, aiming to enhance the tourism participation and experience of younger tourists. Further research will concentrate on the outcomes of implementing digital gamification tools, specifically examining whether these tools foster positive attitudes and emotions among tourists, thereby enhancing their understanding of the attractions and fostering shared experiences. Suppose the results of this study can help improve the digital natives' tourism experience. In that case, we hope to explore its wide application and long-term impact in different cultural contexts through further research and promote the sustainable development of cultural tourism.</p> Fankai Nie, Atithep Copyright (c) 2024 Pacific Institute of Management Science http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/pacific/article/view/274677 Tue, 31 Dec 2024 00:00:00 +0700 Theoretical Analysis of Teaching Models for Snowboarding Beginners https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/pacific/article/view/274695 <p>This paper reviews a variety of educational theories and models for teaching snowboarding beginners, including the ADDIE model, Kolb's experiential learning theory, Bloom's cognitive domain educational objectives framework, and Gagne's nine-step instructional model, and evaluates their effectiveness and applicability. We found that these models and theories can significantly improve the quality of instruction and learners' overall experience, particularly in skill acquisition and theory application. However, the educational environment, resource constraints, insufficient educator-learner interactions, and the limitations of the theories themselves lead to a significant gap between theory and practice. The article suggests that educators should continue to explore and experiment with different instructional models, making necessary adjustments to suit specific teaching and learning environments and learner needs. The article also suggests conducting more empirical studies to validate the long-term effectiveness of these instructional models and explore ways to reduce the discrepancies between theory and practice, thereby optimizing teaching strategies and improving educational outcomes. This study found that each of these instructional theories and models has its own unique strengths and limitations when applied to the education of snowboarding beginners, such as the ADDIE model, Kolb's theory of experiential learning, Bloom's cognitive domain educational goal framework, and Gagne's nine-step instructional model. They provide a wealth of methods and perspectives for snowboarding teaching, helping educators to choose the most appropriate teaching strategies according to specific teaching needs and learners' characteristics. However, the educational environment, resource constraints, insufficient interaction between educators and learners, and the limitations of the theories themselves lead to a gap between the theories and their practical application. Nonetheless, the judicious application of these theories and models can significantly improve the effectiveness of teaching and learning, especially in terms of enhancing learners' skill acquisition and overall learning experience.</p> Siqi Zhang, Atithep Chaetnalao Copyright (c) 2024 Pacific Institute of Management Science http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/pacific/article/view/274695 Tue, 31 Dec 2024 00:00:00 +0700 A Study on The Impact of Big Data on Education Management in Chinese Universities and Countermeasures. https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/pacific/article/view/274735 <p>Big data is significantly impacting all aspects of human society, leading to a transformation in people's cognitive, operational, and lifestyle patterns. Furthermore, it alters the productivity and production relationships within society and is considered a valuable asset for the future, comparable to "new oil," "new gold mine," "new resources," and an "innovation engine." It is considered a very valuable asset for the future, comparable to "new oil," "new gold mine," "new resources," and a "new engine" for innovation. Since 2012, the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Japan, South Korea, and other developed nations have prioritized big data as a key component of their national strategies. In 2015, China explicitly stated its objective of "implementing the national big data strategy" during the Fifth Plenary Session of the 18th CPC Central Committee.</p> <p>To address the challenges posed by the era of big data, the government must collaborate closely with corporations, universities, and research organizations and harness society's collective strength to actively participate. In and universities will play a significant role and exert influence in this current era of big data. Despite the numerous challenges faced by China's education big data sector, university big data research possesses distinct advantages, making the future of big data research and application in education administration highly promising. Management is a form of productivity that can be more crucial than other elements in certain situations. The integration of big data into education management indicates a significant advancement in the field of education management in colleges and universities. Utilizing big data enables us to forecast trends, extract value, and encourage colleges and universities to generate new knowledge more intelligently. In contrast to big data applications in the business sector, big data in universities primarily emphasizes the exploration of correlations and the subsequent identification of causal linkages.</p> Shen Gao Copyright (c) 2024 Pacific Institute of Management Science http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/pacific/article/view/274735 Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0700 The Management Guidelines for Alternative Private Schools: A Case Study of Nandachart Grade School, Chiang Mai Province https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/pacific/article/view/275662 <p>This research aims to study the current situation, desired state, and needs of alternative private school management, with Nandachart Grade School in Chiang Mai as a case study.

If establishments choose not to hire people with disabilities, they have the option to contribute financially to the Fund for Empowerment of Persons with Disabilities instead. However, this option offered by the Act often leads to fewer employment opportunities for disabled individuals.</p> <p> Labor protection under the Labour Protection Act B.E. 2541 (1998) establishes minimum standards to safeguard employees from potential exploitation or infringement of their rights by employers. This legislation aims to provide equal protection to all employees, without discrimination. However, the enforcement of labor protection laws for disabled employees facing physical limitations, health issues, or other obstacles has highlighted legislative inequalities and inadequacies. This has resulted in ineffective and incomplete support for workers with disabilities, failing to align with international standards for labor protection concerning disability rights. The researcher chose to study legal issues on employment and protection for persons with disabilities in establishments and focused on backgrounds, concepts, and theories related to employment and protection for persons with disabilities, including international legal measures, foreign laws, and Thai laws. The purpose is to propose amendments to appropriately and effectively legislate employment and protection for individuals with disabilities in establishments.Therefore, it is appropriate to amend the Empowerment of Persons with Disabilities Act B.E. 2550 (2007) and the Labour Protection Act B.E. 2541 (1998).</p> Jutaphorn Sakrat, Praphasri Buasawan Copyright (c) 2024 Pacific Institute of Management Science http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/pacific/article/view/272558 Tue, 31 Dec 2024 00:00:00 +0700 The Use of Active Learning Innovation and Task-based Learning to Promote Reading Skill through Text Online for Primary School Students in the 2nd Grade https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/pacific/article/view/271004 <p>This research aims to 1) study and develop an innovative active learning and task-based teaching to promote English reading skills from online media of grade 2 primary school students to be effective according to the specified criteria, which is 75/75, and 2) compare the English reading skills of students before and after using the innovative active learning and task-based teaching to promote English reading skills from online media of grade 2 primary school students.

A qualitative research methodology was employed, including document analysis and focus group discussions. The findings reveal that: 1) the primary challenges in tourism development include issues related to tourism policy—Umphang District lacks clear and appropriate policies and development plans tailored to the area's unique needs. Additional challenges involve a lack of knowledge and understanding of sustainable tourism practices, regulatory constraints from government agencies on sustainable tourism development, and budgetary limitations. Sustainable tourism development requires funding for the management and maintenance of natural resources, as well as the creation of eco-friendly facilities. 2) Community involvement in sustainable tourism development is currently limited, with private sector engagement focused on infrastructure investments, such as hotels, resorts, restaurants, and various amenities. These contributions enhance the quality of tourism in Umphang, offering visitors an improved experience.</p> <p>To promote sustainable tourism development through community participation, it is recommended to foster training and educational programs for the local community on sustainable tourism and resource management. Collaboration among the community, government, and private sector should be encouraged to ensure comprehensive and equitable tourism development. Additionally, a sustainable resource and environmental management plan should be established to minimize tourism's impact on the area.</p> Rungtiwa Thanam , Sudsant Sutthisan, Suwanna Kheowphakdee , Thaksina Saen-yen Copyright (c) 2024 Pacific Institute of Management Science http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/pacific/article/view/276196 Tue, 31 Dec 2024 00:00:00 +0700 Analysis of the Causes of Needs of Positive Psychology Classroom https://so05.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/pacific/article/view/276347 <p>The purpose of this research was to 1) analyze the needs of positive psychology classroom, 2) analyze the causes of positive psychology classroom needs.
