Developing of the Knowledge Management System for Planning for College Administrator under the Office of Vocational Education Commission

Abstract

The aims of this research were to 1) develop and evaluate the knowledge management system for planning for college administrator under the Office of Vocational Education Commission, 2) develop and evaluate the efficiency of the training course on developed knowledge management system for planning for college administrator under the Office of Vocational Education Commission, 3) follow up the use of developed knowledge management system for planning for college administrator under the office of Vocational Education Commission. This research has been designed as research and development (R & D), divided the procedure into four stages. The sample consisted of 322 administrators selected by using the table of Krejcie Morgan. The target group for try-out and finding out the efficiency of training course comprised 14 practitioners, and the target group for implementation consisted of 15 practitioners, while the target group for following up study comprised 20 administrators. The results can be concluded as follows: 1) The developed knowledge management system for planning for college administrators under the Office of Vocational Education Commission included two parts. The first part was the component of system consisting of four sections and fifteen main components: (1) Input, (2) Process containing three main elements, (3) Output comprised six elements, and (4) Feedback consisted of two main components. The second part was the indicator of the system. The result reported by the experts found that the overall system was appropriate at a high level. 2) The training course on developed knowledge management system for planning for college administrators under the Office of Vocational Education Commission consisted of five units. The result showed that the efficiency was 85.47/ 84.13 which was higher than the set criteria at 80/80, and the satisfaction of trainees after the training on developed knowledge management systems was at the high level, and 3) The results of the follow-up study of the use of the developed knowledge management system showed that the satisfaction with the system developed after the training was at the highest level.
