 Sustainable development has underlined the relevance of education and culture in the specific area. While place-based learning has been shown to be a successful community-oriented approach, this study combined the participation of people in a variety of physical and social activities to develop a local wisdom learning-management model with digital resources application for learners in Thailand's educational innovation sandbox. The 146 key information providers and 340 students from two elementary schools and two secondary schools took part in the research and development process. The results indicated the local wisdom learning model could enhance student’s learning achievement and learning and innovative skills. Key involved persons, learning management goals, local wisdom content, and digital learning resource application are the four critical components including key involved persons, goals of learning management, the content of outstanding local wisdom, and digital learning resources application. In addition, the topic covers the five steps of learning procedures and three evaluation methods. The practical implications for future policy and practice are discussed.
