Summary

Introduction

Education seeks to equip students with the skills and attributes to navigate and succeed in a challenging period of rapid cultural, societal, economic and technological change. 3R 3Cs are learning skills for preparing learners to develop emotionally and cognitively in society, exemplified by the basic„3R‟s - reading, writing, arithmetic and the„3Cs‟ - critical thinking and problem solving, creativity and innovation, cross-cultural understanding, all essential forcollaborative teamwork and leadership, communication, information and media literacy, computing and ICT literacy, career and learning skills and compassion (Office of the Education Council: ONEC, 2018: introduction). The Minister of Education for Thailand recentlyannounced the use of Basic Education Core Curriculum B.E. 2551 (A.D. 2008) to promote independent learning skills within the school framework This scheme is expected to create more technologically and cognitively astute learners but make the learning process a more emotionally sustaining and positive experience on the journey to collaborative citizenship.(Thailand Minister of Education, 2008: 17). A learner-centered curriculum, thereforeis neededto drive educational reform, an initiative which empowers students to embrace their differences from other students and use their own knowledge, learning aptitudes and motivations as tools for self development This philosophy is consistent withthe royal educational thoughtof His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej(King Rama IX) and The King Maha Vajiralongkorn (King Rama X)who both contend that lesson study and the Professional Learning Community- PLC –are essential for role modeling the effective teacher in the 21st century. An essential part of the process is assessment and evaluation: students are encouraged to check, review and ask questions of peers related to data findings and teaching performance
