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. -
Thai Royal Burial Sites by Scott Mehl
Thai Royal Burial Sites by Scott Mehl House of Chakri (1782-present) The funeral and cremation rituals of the Thai royals are perhaps some of the most spectacular displays. Steeped in tradition and driven by their Buddhist beliefs, the ceremonies take place over six days, usually months after the actual death. The primary reason for the delay is the amount of work involved in building and creating the ceremonial funeral pyre, on which the remains are cremated. These ceremonies take place on the Sanam Luang, a large open field and park, just north of the Grand Palace complex. Once the cremation ceremonies are finished, the ashes are taken to the Grand Palace briefly, before being enshrined within a Buddhist temple. The Kings are traditionally enshrined in the base of a Buddha statue within one of the temples. The ashes of other members of the royal family are typical housed in smaller memorials or monuments at the Royal Cemetery at Wat Ratchabophit. The most recent burial was that of Princess Bejaratana, held in April 2012. For detailed information about the traditions and details about the royal cremation, I suggest the following links: Ancient Traditions for Royal Cremations Royal Cremation Ceremony of HRH Princess Galyani Vadhana Royal Cemetery Royal Cemetery Rama I King Buddha Yodfa Chulaloke reigned April 6 1782 – September 7 1809 King Rama I was born March 20 1736, in the Kingdom of Ayutthaya. He was a prominent military leader under King Taksin, and this enabled him to crown himself the first King of Siam (now Thailand) in 1782, establishing the Chakri Dynasty which remains on the throne today. -

RESHAPING COMMUNICATION ARTS CURRICULUM for SIAM Unfversity
RESHAPING COMMUNICATION ARTS CURRICULUM FOR SIAM UNIVERSITY By URAPHEN TRIYANGKUL Bachelor of Arts Chulalongkom University Bangkok, Thailand , 1988 Master of Arts Chulalongkom University Bangkok, Thailand 1992 Submitted to the faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF EDUCATION December, 2002 RESHAPING COMMUNICATION ARTS CURRICULUM FOR SIAM UNIVERSITY Thesis Approved: '. ' 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. -
