Design of Challenge Based Learning Module for Developing Social and Digital Skills of Vocational Education Students in Thailand

Abstract

The design of a learning module to achieve social and digital skills for students in the vocational education system in Thailand has been introduced. The module included online lessons for self-learning and onsite activities following the process of Challenge-based Learning (CBL) classified as 3 processes: engage process, investigate process, and act process. The online lessons were designed as the Definition of community, Digital wellness, Digital content creation with smartphones, Online marketing, Challenge-based Learning Details, and Project Accomplishment. Students learned these lessons before access to activities in the CBL process. The students were grouped and assigned to get the project theme from the community and investigate how to apply knowledge and vocational skills to assist the community. The CBL process was utilized as a project framework that students would get the project theme from the engage process, get the project procedures from the investigate process, and get project accomplishment from the act process. To ensure the effectiveness and efficiency of the learning process, an on-site mechanism has been developed to meet, support, and monitor CBL learning activities for 533 students from vocational colleges in Thailand. The students were grouped as A, B, C, D, E, and F to create the projects and all projects were designed to present the results through 3 minutes of digital clips. The results indicate that the students have received enhanced experiences including skills in critical thinking, emotional intelligence, social skills, social responsibility, readiness for change, and various preparedness and adaptability to changes.
