  • The Thailand Qualification Framework: Similarities and Differences in the Measured and Desired Attributes
    THE THAILAND QUALIFICATION FRAMEWORK: SIMILARITIES AND DIFFERENCES IN THE MEASURED AND DESIRED ATTRIBUTES Pisoot Thankdenchai Department of Logistics and Supply Chain Management, SripatumUniversity Chandhaluk Heesawat Graduate School, Stamford International University ABSTRACT There is a mismatch between employers’ expectations of the abilities of new graduate employees, and the realities. This paper synthesizes studies which deal with this mismatch. It reviews previous studies of quality assurance standards, expectations, and actual measurement. In the ‘Thai Qualifications Framework for Higher Education’ (TQF: HEd), five dimensions evaluate the attributes of all freshly recruited graduates. Content analysis has been used to examine annual TQF Assessment Reports of 20 universities in Thailand. The key five domains of the Office of Higher Education Council (OHEC), were compared with the desired attributes synthesized from previous research into the assessments of graduates’ Thai employers. In those previous studies, the most desirable attributes were categorized into twenty-five items. The recommendation in this paper is to add some attributes, such as the Domain of Psychomotor Skills (Arit.chandra.ac.th, n.d., p.2); and decrease the five domains to only three, in accordance with the National Education Act, 1999 (Thai year 2542). Three main latent attributes have been examined to cover the three perspectives, which were: A) Academic knowledge to provide foundation for their further development; B) Practical knowledge which directly transforms into work readiness; and C) Ethical and moral mindsets to perform professional practices. The most important was defined as professional ethics. The integration of the findings, resulting from the interpretation of the variables, constructs, models and meanings, is shown in the Appendices, categorized by the three types of stakeholders: Students, Job Candidates, and Employers.

  • English Skills for AEC Communication: a Challenge for Thai Universities
    English skills for AEC communication: A challenge for Thai universities Kantatip Sinhaneti, Shinawatra University, Thailand Wei Fu, Shinawatra University, Thailand Abstract: ASEAN member countries are rapidly approaching a new milestone to be a single market at the end of 2015. Thailand has an ambition to be the hub for international education among ASEAN countries. English skills become more important for Thailand when AEC is fully implemented. This paper is based on a study from 16 Thai higher institutions, which offer Bachelor and Master degree programs to improve students’ communication skills in English. The results show that they offer 57 listening and speaking courses and 83 reading and writing courses under those Bachelor programs. Among the programs offered, only one university offers English for Everyday and Social Communication course. They offer a few courses under master level programs to enhance students’ 21st century skills and professional development. From such findings, lacking English communication skills courses will be a big problem for Thai workers to meet the AEC market needs. Perhaps, it’s a great challenge for Thai universities to orchestrate some changes in ELT curricula to provide more English skills courses for real life communication, especially to cater for the AEC market. Key words: AEC, English Skills, Challenge, Thai higher education 1. Introduction ASEAN member countries are rapidly approaching a new milestone to be a single market at the end of 2015. It will be more important than ever for Thais to develop their 21st century and English language skills to compete with the new intercultural workplace. Thailand has an ambition to be the hub for international education among ASEAN countries.

' 7 ~.. ~ ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This dissertation came in existence by two stimuli. One is that once I was a student in Communication Arts Faculty at Chulalongkom University at both undergraduate and graduate levels, and the other is the chance of teaching in the field at Siam University. Both stimuli acted as personal internal drives. The Communication Arts Curriculum could serve not only students and society but also labor market needs. I felt very fortunate of being one of the staff at Siam University under the most remarkable captain-our most respected President Mr. Pomchai Monkhonvanit. He and the University's Council are not only the administrative fiat but also the administrative guidance and care about development ideas. The cohort doctoral Program was born with full support of Siam University and College of Education at Oklahoma State University; and I am one in our group who wins the first prize. Therefore, please kindly accept my appreciation. I am indebted to all the OSU Professors, especially Dr. Margaret M. Scott, my research adviser and Dr. Adrienne E. Hyle (our Mother Hyle) for their patience, care, share, piloting and providing feedback for us all. "Men work together," I told him from the heart.
