Abstract
This research aimed to study the problems and needs in strengthening the skills of understanding and using digital technology, develop a training model based on the collaborative learning concept, study the effects of using the training model based on the collaborative learning concept, and evaluate the aforementioned training model. The research and development method consisted of 4 steps: Step 1: Study the problems and needs in strengthening the skills of understanding and using digital technology; Step 2: Develop a training model based on the collaborative learning concept; Step 3: Study the effects of using the training model based on the collaborative learning concept; Step 4: Evaluate the training model based on the collaborative learning concept.The sample consisted of 147 teachers of Songkhla Municipality School, using multi-stage random sampling and five experts using purposive sampling.The research instruments included a questionnaire on problems and needs of training models, a training model, collaborative learning behaviors and satisfaction assessment form. The statistics used in this research were mean, percentage, standard deviation, and t-test dependent. The research results revealed that 1. The overall level of problems and needs was high. 2. The training model consists of the following components: 1) Context, 2) Input, 3) Process, 4) Output, and 5) Feedback; it comprises four main stages including: 1) Pre-training stage, 2) Training implementation stage, 3) Evaluation stage, and 4) Post-training follow-up stage. The effectiveness of the training model, as measured by the E1/E2 efficiency index, was found to be 82.27/83.17. 3. The skills of understanding and using digital technology were higher than the 80 percent criterion with statistical significance at the 0.01 level. The overall collaborative learning behavior was at the highest level, the overall satisfaction was at the highest level, and 4.
