The study involved a total of 103 participants, comprising 78 respondents who completed questionnaires and 25 respondents who participated in interviews. Data analysis from questionnaires revealed significant findings: participants highlighted the importance of increased English content (= 3.62, SD = 0.78), challenges in grammar comprehension (= 3.49, SD = 0.81), the critical role of effective teaching methods in fostering motivation for learning (= 3.42, SD = 0.80), and difficulties in English comprehension ( = 3.29, SD = 0.73). The data analysis from in-depth interviews with students indicates that most students admit to disliking and lacking confidence in learning English, a problem that has persisted since before entering university. However, students are aware of the importance of the English language and express a desire to learn it more. Additionally, they suggest that instructors focus on applying teaching techniques that emphasise a variety of learning activities. They requested greater integration of active learning techniques, rather than solely relying on lectures.</p> <p>This research stands apart from others as it focuses on investigating the issues and requirements of learners. Moreover, given the predominantly border region population sample, numerous factors may influence learning outcomes. Thus, addressing the concerns and needs of this demographic will aid in pinpointing the causes and origins of challenges and serve as a roadmap for enhancing English academic reading proficiency both effectively and efficiently. By identifying factors impacting academic achievement, it offers insights for devising effective teaching and learning strategies, ultimately bolstering students' English academic reading abilities.</p> Tanchanok Prombut Copyright (c) 2024 Phayao University http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://so03.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/Humanties-up/article/view/272939 Tue, 23 Apr 2024 00:00:00 +0700 Improving Listening and Speaking Skills through Shadowing Technique https://so03.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/Humanties-up/article/view/274493 <p>This research aims to study the effectiveness of the shadowing technique in developing listening and speaking skills in the Japanese language among Thai students, with an emphasis on applying digital technology to enhance learning efficiency outside the classroom. The study involved a sample group of 22 students registered for a Japanese conversation course. Research tools included shadowing activities, focus group interview, and pre- and post-learning tests to measure skill development and student satisfaction. The results showed that the shadowing technique significantly improved listening and speaking skills in Japanese, with students' average scores increasing from 15.54 to 19.36 out of a total of 25 points, indicating statistically significant skill development. Qualitative analysis from focus group interview revealed increased confidence, vocabulary and phrase memorization, and pronunciation improvement. However, there is a need for improvement in the speed of information reception and interaction. This research suggests that tailoring the shadowing technique to the ability levels and needs of students, along with specific feedback and the application of technology, can enhance training efficiency, leading to effective learning and motivation for students.</p> Kitikarn Ratanapitak, Atima Kaewsa-ard Copyright (c) 2024 Phayao University http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://so03.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/Humanties-up/article/view/274493 Tue, 23 Apr 2024 00:00:00 +0700 Educational Neuroscience: Definition, Scope, and Neuroimaging https://so03.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/Humanties-up/article/view/258998 <p>There has been the evolution and advances of neuroimaging technologies, for example, FMRI which can be used to study the processes of the nervous system by measuring differences in electromagnetic properties of blood and EEG which can measure the brain’s electrical activity based on the sum total of the electrical activity of each neuron. This has led to a more accurate body of knowledge about the learning process with scientific empirical evidence. As a result, it has contributed to the combination of sciences, thus developing a new field referred to as “Educational Neuroscience”. This field is a multidisciplinary science between psychology, education, and neuroscience, which aims to shed clear light on the learning process, to transcend learning limitations, and to create educational innovations with reliability and more accuracy. This integration of sciences is implemented on an ideological level, e.g., theories, ideals, and values, which amalgamate different sciences, a practice level, including methods and environment/society, and an outcome level.</p> Sanit Srikoon Copyright (c) 2022 Phayao University http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://so03.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/Humanties-up/article/view/258998 Mon, 01 Apr 2024 00:00:00 +0700 “Farang Sakdina” and a Concept of Caste Division by Treasure and Dignity from M.R. Kukrit Pramoj’s Work https://so03.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/Humanties-up/article/view/271552 <p>This article was sparked by reading a book titled “Farang Sakdina” (Feudal Farang) of M.R. Kukrit Pramoj, which provides knowledge on the history, the origin, including the principles of caste stratification in Western societies under the feudal regime. The roots of feudalism originated in the Roman Empire for the first time and in an era when the government was so weak that it could not provide thorough protection for the people. Although, feudalism was a common convention in the Roman Empire, such as in the territories of today's France and Germany, but it has developed into a complete point in British territory. The main principle is that the whole country's land belongs to the king, and the right of land was used to determine the status and duties of all people. Thailand was ruled by feudalism from the reign of King Borommatrailokkanat of the Ayutthaya period until the reign of King Rama V of the Rattanakosin period. A person's dignity is measured by the number of rai, which is a measure of rice field area. Then feudalism was used as a criterion for determining the rights, duties and status of a person. Reading the work of M.R. Kukrit Pramoj also reveals that the number of cows was used as a measure of honor and influence of a person in the Vedic age’s Aryan society, and Zambian society in South Africa before and after it emerged from British colonialism. However, the division of wealth and dignity in Western societies such as England is different from Eastern societies such as India, Thailand, including Zambian societies in the South African region. For in the Eastern world, "treasures" consisting of tangible objects such as land and cattle, and intangible object such as feudalism. Moreover, "dignity" in the sense of the person's status resulting from such possessions was not always go together. In addition, although Aryan societies in the Vedic age, including Zambia in the South African region, cows were used to assess the status of a person in the same way that Britain and Thailand used feudalism, but it's just the values of the people in one period of time, It is not a fixed rule nor it is established as a law.</p> Truong Thi Hang Copyright (c) 2023 Phayao University http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://so03.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/Humanties-up/article/view/271552 Mon, 01 Apr 2024 00:00:00 +0700 Guidelines for Enhancing Health Literacy in Schools https://so03.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/Humanties-up/article/view/270720 <p>Investing in health literacy for school-age children is of utmost importance, particularly in developing regions, as it can serve as the foundation for the development of a cost-effective healthcare system.
