Abstract

This research aimed to study effectiveness of the learning management model in strengthening reasoning abilities and desirable characteristics in labor law subjects for vocational students. The population includes 36 second-year vocational certificate students, from the Faculty of Industrial Technology at Nakhon Phanom University with similar backgrounds, experiences and learning contexts. The sample was randomly assigned into 2 classrooms, including 20 second-year Vocational Certificate students in group 1 a trial group who were taught by the learning management model to strengthen reasoning abilities and desirable characteristics in labor law subjects, and 20 students in class 2 as a control group who were taught by the inquiry learning management model. Research tools include the learning management model for strengthening reasoning abilities and desirable characteristics in the labor law subject with a validity index of 0.78 and the assessing reasoning abilities and desirable characteristics in the labor law subject test with a discriminant power of 0.50-0.83, content validity between 0.65-0.85, and reliability coefficient between 0.75-0.82. The research was conducted between May-October 2023. Descriptive data such as percentage, mean, and standard deviation was used to analyze the data, and the difference between the means was tested using an independent t-test, a dependent t-test, a one-way MANOVA, and a univariate test at the significance level of.05. The results found that 1) the experimental group had a post-mean score of reasoning ability, and desirable characteristics were significantly higher than the pre-mean score at the.05 level. According to the total score of 45, the average score before studying was 20.7 and after studying was 38.9, respectively. The average scores for desirable characteristics were 42.8 and 74.9 points within a total of 80 points, respectively, and 2) the experimental group had higher average scores for reasoning abilities and desirable characteristics after learning than the control group with statistical significance at the .05 level, also average reasoning ability scores were 42.8 and 29.0, respectively, and average desirable characteristics scores were 74.9 and 54.5, respectively. The results indicate that a learning management model for strengthen reasoning abilities and desirable characteristics in labor law subjects can enhance reasoning abilities and desirable characteristics of vocational education students. It should be applied as an option and expanded to raise the achievement level of this labor law subject to be more successful in the future.
