- 0:21Hello all teachers. This clip is still a
- 0:23matter of law. We're in module one, the
- 0:26matter of changing the world and social
- 0:28context and the concept of sufficiency,
- 0:31economy, philosophy in terms of changes
- 0:33in the world and social context. As we
- 0:36know that we talked about in the
- 0:37introduction of the module, there will
- 0:39be a section about the changes in the
- 0:41context of the social world are divided
- 0:43into four parts. The first part or
- 0:46subpart of part one is legal policy and
- 0:50then there's the matter of politics.
- 0:52legal policy and politics. Right now, we
- 0:55are still in the matter of law. As for
- 0:57the law, we have talked about the
- 0:59constitution which is the country's
- 1:01largest legal framework. Today, we are
- 1:04talking about law again, but it is a law
- 1:06that is a continuation of constitutional
- 1:08law. It is still the master law. The law
- 1:12we are going to talk about today is a
- 1:14very important law in educational law.
- 1:17It is the National Education Act. The
- 1:19National Education Act is a law that
- 1:21comes from the constitution. It is the
- 1:24constitution of the Kingdom of Thailand
- 1:25number 16 promulgated on the 11th of
- 1:28October 1997.
- 1:31It prescribes laws that relate to
- 1:34national education. It is very popular
- 1:36here that in the past there was no
- 1:38educational laws at all and therefore a
- 1:42very important source is section 81 of
- 1:44the 16th D constitution announced on the
- 1:4711th of October 1997.
- 1:50This is information that you all should
- 1:52remember in order to use it in exams or
- 1:55when teaching or saying anything.
- 1:58The most important point is that there
- 2:00are two parts to this story. The first
- 2:02part is to have laws regarding national
- 2:04education. Another thing that continues
- 2:07here is it is stated that this law is to
- 2:10improve education in accordance with
- 2:12this important point economic and social
- 2:15changes. Therefore, it is probably the
- 2:18origin or the consensus that the story
- 2:20is a matter of change and ours is a
- 2:23change in the context of the world and
- 2:24society.
- 2:27Economic change is also a part of the
- 2:28changing world and social context.
- 2:30Therefore, it is important that there
- 2:32must be educational laws.
- 2:35Therefore, there is the origin of the
- 2:38National Education Act. There are four
- 2:40National Education Acts until now.
- 2:43Actually, it's a single version, but
- 2:45there have been improvements. The first
- 2:48version is a National Education Act of
- 2:501999.
- 2:52This was announced on the 19th of August
- 2:541999.
- 2:56But later there was a second version
- 2:59which is a revision of the first version
- 3:01which was the 1999 edition. The second
- 3:04edition revised in 2002 was announced on
- 3:07the 19th of December 2002.
- 3:11Issue three has another correction. I'll
- 3:14let you know how to fix it. The third
- 3:16time this was revised in 2010 and
- 3:19announced on the 22nd of July 2010. And
- 3:23the last time it was announced that
- 3:25there was another amendment was in 2019
- 3:28announced on the 1st of May 2019.
- 3:33The reason from the improvement that
- 3:34comes from each time is different. The
- 3:37first time was edited because the name
- 3:39of the ministry was changed. That was
- 3:41during the enactment of the national
- 3:43education act until the announcement was
- 3:46made. That period was the period in
- 3:48which the name of the ministry would be
- 3:50changed. that is go and change the
- 3:53structure of the ministry. The ministry
- 3:55was named and was in operation at the
- 3:58time. The name of the ministry was the
- 4:00ministry of religion, education and
- 4:02culture. The ministry of education,
- 4:05religion and culture that is combining
- 4:07the matters of studying religion and
- 4:09culture together.
- 4:11Therefore, in the contents provided in
- 4:13various laws, including the National
- 4:15Education Act, the abbreviation of which
- 4:18is the National Education Act, there
- 4:20will also be the name of the ministry in
- 4:23addition to the name of the ministry.
- 4:25Religion and culture will also have
- 4:27content related to education. Both
- 4:29matters of education, religion and
- 4:31culture are in the regulations.
- 4:34Various categories and sections as well.
- 4:37When the new ministry was announced,
- 4:39there was no religion and culture. That
- 4:42is, there is a ministry of culture that
- 4:44integrates education there. But the
- 4:46original ministry of education, the
- 4:48ministry of education that will be
- 4:50reestablished will become a ministry
- 4:53with the same name as the ministry of
- 4:54education as before. Therefore,
- 4:58the text or words used in the National
- 5:00Education Act of 1999 must be revised.
- 5:04editing the text of the ministry's name
- 5:06and adjust the content of that section.
- 5:09Religious and cultural regulations were
- 5:11removed. This is one of the issues that
- 5:14were fixed. But other substances remains
- 5:16the same only the name coming in 2010.
- 5:21This one has a story about educational
- 5:23areas that is the original since 1999
- 5:28or two amendments in the second edition
- 5:30of 2002.
- 5:32The only thing that education has in the
- 5:34name of an education area is the word
- 5:37educational area. It means educational
- 5:40institutions that are in the educational
- 5:42area.
- 5:44It is an educational institution at both
- 5:46primary and secondary levels. Simply
- 5:49put, they are in the same area. But now
- 5:52it's 2010 and there is a level of
- 5:54separation.
- 5:56Therefore, there was now an educational
- 5:58area for primary and secondary
- 6:00education.
- 6:02When there is a change here, the only
- 6:04part in the name of the district that
- 6:06has been amended, especially in the
- 6:08wording or words, indicates a school
- 6:10district. Therefore, the other contents
- 6:12remain the same or the words themselves.
- 6:16Another time there was a revision was in
- 6:18the fourth edition. In 2019 there was a
- 6:22restructuring here that is the office of
- 6:25high education commission was originally
- 6:27under the ministry of education.
- 6:30When the office of the higher education
- 6:32commission was separated the higher
- 6:34education commission was separated.
- 6:36Therefore there was an adjustment of
- 6:38content in the part that was the part of
- 6:40higher education which was removed
- 6:43because the ministry was separated.
- 6:45The ministry will proceed with the work
- 6:47of the ministry of high education. The
- 6:49ministry of higher education will
- 6:51proceed with its own related work.
- 6:54However, the contents of this national
- 6:56communications act are really pulling
- 6:58out the educational act. Therefore, the
- 7:02national education policy will talk
- 7:03about all levels speaking at the dome
- 7:06level. But language that is related to
- 7:08technology under the ministry of
- 7:10education that also talks about higher
- 7:12education has been pulled out.
- 7:16Other matters related to high education
- 7:18still remain in the National Education
- 7:19Act. This is the origin of the National
- 7:22Education Act and the matter of its
- 7:24improvement.
- 7:25The following information has been
- 7:27revised and updated. Therefore, if you
- 7:30look at the various messages in National
- 7:32Education Act, there will be a symbol,
- 7:35but there will be a number with an
- 7:36asterisk to say when this text was
- 7:39revised and in what version. Therefore,
- 7:42if it is the current version at present,
- 7:44there will be hanging at the end called
- 7:46the socket states that this has been
- 7:49revised according to which version, when
- 7:51and how
- 7:54you should use the current version in
- 7:55your next study.
- 7:57Let's look at the content and details of
- 7:59each section and then each category each
- 8:02section will start from. If you enter
- 8:05one category, you must first tell us
- 8:07what was posted and presented there.
- 8:10only important sections. Only the
- 8:12sections that teachers should know are
- 8:14related to teachers. It is important
- 8:16information that teachers should know
- 8:18and love and be able to put it into
- 8:20practice. Section one, general
- 8:23provisions regarding the aims and
- 8:25principles.
- 8:26This important section is section 8
- 8:29regarding organizing education to adhere
- 8:31to the following principle. What
- 8:33principle is it based on? Number one is
- 8:36to provide lifelong education for the
- 8:38people. The important point here is that
- 8:40it is lifelong education used only for
- 8:43students not for the public. Linked to
- 8:46important points that we go back to
- 8:48since the constitution stated that we
- 8:50should emphasize lifelong education.
- 8:52Lifelong education must be inclusive
- 8:55including all groups and not just school
- 8:57age learners. Age within the system that
- 9:00is is linked to education that has many
- 9:03different characteristics. Therefore,
- 9:05this present study has many forms. As we
- 9:08said, wherever you are, you can study.
- 9:11You can study whenever you want.
- 9:13Whatever you want to be able to study,
- 9:15you must be able to study. Therefore,
- 9:18people throughout their lives can learn
- 9:20at all times and there are various
- 9:23learning channels and this law is
- 9:25considered to be the modern content and
- 9:27can be respected and practiced. Part two
- 9:31which is equally important is the matter
- 9:33of letting society participate in
- 9:35education. The word society is a broad
- 9:37term for society refers to an individual
- 9:40or a group of people including those
- 9:42agencies that are in society and the
- 9:44community to participate in education.
- 9:47And if you look at the laws that have
- 9:49been established since before, you will
- 9:51see that both government agencies and
- 9:53private sector agencies mean that they
- 9:56are all society who have the opportunity
- 9:59to participate in education. The word
- 10:02educational management is I'm free but
- 10:05the meaning is that I can come and help
- 10:07anywhere will be an important force in
- 10:09the matter of being a lecturer be a
- 10:12teacher will help in the budget the use
- 10:14of buildings various things that is
- 10:17having social agencies or people in
- 10:19society come in and help maybe from
- 10:22helping workers to give up their brain
- 10:24power helping with materials and
- 10:26equipment helping with budgets etc. and
- 10:29let society have a part to help take
- 10:31care of the provision of education as
- 10:33well. Simply put, it's good to be the
- 10:36owner or to be the host or that
- 10:38personnel or people even students
- 10:41themselves who live in society will have
- 10:44a part to help and monitor in terms of
- 10:47educational management here. In addition
- 10:50to being involved in the organizing
- 10:52education here, there will also be a
- 10:54part take care of the part that will be
- 10:56suggested.
- 10:58Importantly, there is a section that
- 11:00will help monitor, supervise and
- 11:02evaluate. That is an important part
- 11:05where education is not separated from
- 11:07society.
- 11:09Another part is the continuous
- 11:10development of the content and learning
- 11:12process. The important issue is now
- 11:15there will be two parts to develop. What
- 11:18will be developed? Content. If we talk
- 11:21about content, it is content. Suppose
- 11:24that the things learned need to be
- 11:26learned these days that talk about
- 11:28competency will also be part of the
- 11:30content. Simply put, whatever is learned
- 11:33will evolve in accordance with the
- 11:34context and change over time.
- 11:37Another part that must be developed is
- 11:39the matter of the learning process. You
- 11:41see developing what you will learn,
- 11:44developing the process of learning, this
- 11:46is important. More importantly, it is
- 11:49not to develop continuously for a while
- 11:51and then stop, but to do it
- 11:53continuously. Therefore, doing it
- 11:55continuously shows that there is
- 11:57development. This is also connected to
- 12:00the matter of change. When there is a
- 12:02change in the context, it changes
- 12:04quickly or slowly. But when there is a
- 12:07change, the development of things that
- 12:09need to be learned or the learning
- 12:10process must be suitable for the context
- 12:13of the change that is it must be done
- 12:16continuously.
- 12:18Another continuous step is connected to
- 12:19the matter of lifelong life. In studying
- 12:22the life market, it is not adapted to
- 12:25the context appropriate to the group of
- 12:27people who will study. This will be an
- 12:29important substance and precept. Section
- 12:32two is related to the roles and duties,
- 12:34rights and duties of education. This
- 12:37involves matters of both the individual
- 12:39and the organization.
- 12:41The important section of this section is
- 12:44section 10 concerning educational
- 12:46management technology.
- 12:48The children's act states that everyone
- 12:50must have equal rights and opportunities
- 12:52to receive basic education for at least
- 12:5512 years.
- 12:56We have words that we are familiar with
- 12:58and we have to be precise and remember
- 13:00and can answer that is the word
- 13:03compulsory education basic education.
- 13:06These two words are related but not the
- 13:08same. Compulsory council and knowing
- 13:11that 9 years is compulsory means that
- 13:13Thai people Thai people must be
- 13:15educated. 9 years is compulsory.
- 13:19You can say that the law is compulsory.
- 13:22This means that if you do not do it then
- 13:24it is against the law. That is from the
- 13:26first grade of primary school until the
- 13:28third grade of secondary school. But
- 13:30basic education is education from
- 13:32primary 1 to secondary six or vocational
- 13:36certificate 3. This is considered basic
- 13:39education. Here it must be defined that
- 13:42equal rights and opportunities mean that
- 13:44people are equal regardless of what
- 13:46gender they belong to, what personality
- 13:48group they belong to, what ethnic group
- 13:51they are. But if they are tied, they
- 13:53must have the right to receive
- 13:54treatment. Basic education 12 years
- 13:57already. It must be provided equally as
- 14:00well. The government must provide it
- 14:02thoroughly and with quality and without
- 14:04charging any expenses. And what is
- 14:07important here is the matter of having
- 14:09equal rights and opportunities in the
- 14:11matter of basic education for no less
- 14:13than 12 years. It is the duty of the
- 14:16state to provide it thoroughly. No
- 14:18matter what remote area you are in, it
- 14:20depends on the situation in this
- 14:22context. Therefore, even people who are
- 14:25disabled and those with chronic
- 14:27illnesses such as being bedridden must
- 14:29have equal opportunities to receive
- 14:31education. The government must find
- 14:34opportunities and relevant agencies must
- 14:36organize
- 14:37from the symptoms of education provided
- 14:40according to the context. But it must
- 14:42not be organized as a business. It must
- 14:44be of quality as well and it must be
- 14:47provided free of charge. This is a
- 14:49provision according to the Royal
- 14:51Education Act which is consistent with
- 14:53the constitution. This is the content of
- 14:56the important provisions. The next part
- 14:58is category three and it is about the
- 15:01education system. As I have learned
- 15:04there are three types of allocation.
- 15:06There are three types of education in
- 15:08one system that is the education and the
- 15:11education system outside the education
- 15:13system in formal education.
- 15:16Formal education which many of us all
- 15:18teachers are in your educational
- 15:21institutions is considered to be formal
- 15:23education.
- 15:25Come to study in an education
- 15:26institution.
- 15:28Nonformal education means that there is
- 15:30an agency that takes care of this. That
- 15:33is it may be because there are no
- 15:35opportunities or unsuccessful
- 15:37opportunities in formal education or
- 15:40even if successful I'll come to study
- 15:42here again no matter what there is
- 15:45education that we are familiar with that
- 15:47is nonformal education this language is
- 15:50a language that students speak and can
- 15:52clearly understand when listening to it
- 15:54they're not learning it in school but
- 15:56are still learning it meaning it is
- 15:59still basic education but they do not
- 16:01study in the form of coming to study
- 16:03every day. There are methods of
- 16:05organizing the education that facilitate
- 16:08students to learn both by themselves and
- 16:10then meeting in groups or not. There is
- 16:13a process to support and transfer
- 16:15various things. This one has enough
- 16:18details that are conducive to students
- 16:20which now is doing well and is about to
- 16:22be adjusted.
- 16:24As a matter of learning, various
- 16:26learning centers will be more extensive.
- 16:30Another very important section that is
- 16:32consistent with the section just passed
- 16:34is the matter of informal education. If
- 16:37we say that we study at our own pace, we
- 16:39can study at any time. Anyone can study.
- 16:43We can study anywhere. We can study
- 16:45through different media all of them.
- 16:48Whatever you are studying, it will be
- 16:49part of education but in a form. It may
- 16:53be semiformal or not or it may be
- 16:56educational. It may be based on the
- 16:59nature of us watching clips, various
- 17:00clips in various media that are either
- 17:03public or organized by an organization
- 17:05to give a specific group or can arrange
- 17:08general services. Therefore, it is
- 17:10considered to be the study of goodwill
- 17:13which the government must take care of
- 17:15and see which are parts.
- 17:17It must be correct that the people
- 17:20should learn. This is the role of the
- 17:22state as a whole. At the same time,
- 17:25educational agencies or related agencies
- 17:28at the same time, educational agencies
- 17:30or related agencies must also take care
- 17:33that this is beneficial and must be
- 17:35disseminated to the public. Therefore,
- 17:37learning, seeing, and having access to
- 17:40various learning resources is considered
- 17:42informal education. Of course, you can
- 17:45study at any time and you can study for
- 17:47the rest of your life. If you want to
- 17:50continue studying with a lot of variety,
- 17:52it will be a matter of the system.
- 17:55In section 16, we said that there will
- 17:57be two levels of formal education. What
- 18:00we have already mentioned is that the
- 18:02basic education level is from grade 1 to
- 18:04grade six or vocational certificate 3
- 18:07and high education.
- 18:09Therefore, it is enough to continue with
- 18:11basic education.
- 18:13If you know that there will be A levels,
- 18:15it actually has degree levels. It has
- 18:18pre-deree levels, tertiary degrees such
- 18:21as what we are familiar with, vocational
- 18:23certificates, distributed higher
- 18:25vocational levels or have other
- 18:27certificates which are higher level of
- 18:29education than basic education. This is
- 18:32all considered to be higher level
- 18:34education. Of course, this is also an
- 18:36educational level. But regarding the
- 18:39education system, one can study now. It
- 18:42can be both at high educational levels.
- 18:45There will be both formal and nonformal
- 18:47studies. In this matter, there are many
- 18:50avenues to study. Therefore, you are
- 18:52able to choose or people can choose to
- 18:54study according to their needs and suit
- 18:56their own context. Next is the matter of
- 18:59further education system as well. But
- 19:02this is section 17 talking about
- 19:04compulsory education. I already
- 19:06mentioned 9 years. There will be 9 years
- 19:09of compulsory education which is
- 19:12specified from the age of entering the
- 19:13seventh year that is meaning six years
- 19:16of age entering the seventh year until
- 19:19entering the 16th year. Year 16 will be
- 19:2215 years complete. This part must be
- 19:25studied in compulsory education or if it
- 19:28happens that the student passes the
- 19:30prerequisite exam before reaching the
- 19:32age of 16, it is considered completed.
- 19:36But if you haven't finished here, you're
- 19:38still under the law. You'll have to come
- 19:40and study in some other form. So it can
- 19:43be both the system and outside system.
- 19:46>> Nowadays, when it comes to informal
- 19:48education, there is another system that
- 19:50may not be mentioned in the law. But
- 19:52there is another form of education
- 19:54called home education or homeschool.
- 19:57At home or homeschool, there are many
- 19:59parents with whom you can take care of
- 20:01your children.
- 20:03You don't have to take it into your own
- 20:04education both in the formal and
- 20:06nonformal education system at home. This
- 20:09will be a form of education that allows
- 20:11for flexibility and diversity.
- 20:14Therefore, if counted according to age,
- 20:17that is the law stipulates that entering
- 20:19the seventh year until entering the 16th
- 20:22year must be subject to the law that is
- 20:25education. But if there is a case where
- 20:27it is necessary to not be able to study,
- 20:30there will be a way to help in applying
- 20:33without having to approach compulsory
- 20:35communication. For example, having a
- 20:38disability and therefore being unable to
- 20:40study, but other parts can be taken care
- 20:43of and must be enforced in this study.
- 20:46It may be inconvenient for one or
- 20:49perhaps one is not ready to do it. It
- 20:51may be that there will be concessions.
- 20:53But whatever when there are people who
- 20:56are 16 years old but still want to study
- 20:58in basic education or education that
- 21:01still needs to be studied one can still
- 21:03come into the educational process.
- 21:06Nonformal education is also used in this
- 21:08part which is conducive to education.
- 21:12Another part is section four regarding
- 21:14educational management guidelines. This
- 21:17is the content of the law. The key word
- 21:20is to take the learner as the main
- 21:21focus. And it is written that education
- 21:24must be based on the principle that
- 21:26every learner can learn and develop
- 21:28himself. That means that if the learner
- 21:30is the focus, how many potential
- 21:33learners can learn. The meaning must be
- 21:36organized like this. That is everyone
- 21:38can learn and develop themselves and
- 21:40consider students as the most important.
- 21:43Therefore, managers of the educational
- 21:46management process of agencies that will
- 21:48be involved in organizing education from
- 21:50government agencies at the ministry
- 21:52level down must encourage learners to be
- 21:56able to develop themselves naturally to
- 21:58their fullest potential. This is a rule
- 22:01specified in the law. Next is a matter
- 22:04of organizing education as before, but
- 22:06it is a matter of faculty that will
- 22:09participate in the education management.
- 22:12That is there is a basic education
- 22:14commission. What are your duties? There
- 22:18is a specified core curriculum for basic
- 22:20education
- 22:22that teaches simply put is the body of
- 22:25agencies that is the basic educational
- 22:27level structure. It is considered to be
- 22:29the highest agency of basic education
- 22:31that is under the ministry. Simply put,
- 22:34basic education will have agencies,
- 22:38but this agency will be administered in
- 22:40the form of the committee called the
- 22:41basic education commission. I will take
- 22:44care of the curriculum regarding
- 22:46educational management at the basic
- 22:48education level. There'll be one
- 22:50important witness which is that there is
- 22:53a core curriculum or we'll link it to
- 22:56another level of the curriculum that is
- 22:58level and level at the education
- 23:00institutional level which will have
- 23:02further provisions.
- 23:04Section 27 says that there is already a
- 23:07core curriculum for basic education.
- 23:10As for the educational institution, it
- 23:12will have duties according to the
- 23:14principles of the education institutions
- 23:16curriculum. Therefore, the curriculum of
- 23:18the educational institution uses the
- 23:20core curriculum as the main basis and
- 23:23must be adjusted to suit the problems,
- 23:26community conditions, social conditions,
- 23:28and local wisdom. Able to add desirable
- 23:32characteristics in the desired
- 23:33characteristics specified in the core
- 23:35system. The specified age
- 23:37characteristics are those that
- 23:39educational institutions can add to suit
- 23:42the context of the educational
- 23:43institution. Local context the social
- 23:47context of which localities require
- 23:49special characteristics or additional
- 23:50animals that set up for students to
- 23:53happen. It is carried out so that
- 23:55student become good members of their
- 23:57families, society and the nation with
- 23:59all the above. It is a matter of the
- 24:02provisions of the national education act
- 24:04starting with the matter of why there is
- 24:06national education act and starting in
- 24:081999
- 24:09and it has been changed three times and
- 24:12their important provisions starting from
- 24:14the general section on how education
- 24:16must be arranged emphasizing the
- 24:18provision of lifelong education for
- 24:20everybody's level education involves the
- 24:23participation of communities and local
- 24:25agencies and this education must be
- 24:28continuously developed therefore There
- 24:30will be the issue of educational
- 24:32management related to individuals and
- 24:35related to organizations related to
- 24:37characteristics such as preschool
- 24:39education, basic education and tertiary
- 24:42education.
- 24:44And then we end up with the organization
- 24:46that is the structure that takes care of
- 24:47basic education which is the basic
- 24:50volunteer committee. As for this clip,
- 24:53we'll end this part right here. We'll
- 24:55continue in the next part. That is the
- 24:57relevant mode for this video. Goodbye.
