Innovative approach to full-service participatory occupational group development for the elderly in Bangkok, Thailand

This research aims to investigate an innovative approach to comprehensive participatory occupational group development for the elderly in Wat Pracharabuedham Community 1-4. The goal is to reduce inequality in urban communities. The study used participatory action research (PAR) and community-based research (CBR) methods to collect data. The study included 77 participants: 19 public health volunteers, 20 elderly individuals, 5 community leaders, 10 teachers and students, 3 officials from the Dusit District Community Development and Social Welfare Department in Bangkok, and 20 lecturers and students from Suan Sunandha Rajabhat University. The research findings identified the key components of urban communities as households, temples, and schools, referred to as the “H-T-S Ecosystem.” In this urban setting, working adults leave early and return late from work. During the day, grandparents managed household chores, cared for children, and monitored the community. However, the elderly did not want to burden their children and wished to contribute additional income to their families and communities. Despite this, they lacked the knowledge to develop community products. To address this issue, the research introduced a full-service herbal product called “Phaya Yor Green Oil.” This product enabled the elderly to support themselves without government assistance, leading to improved urban quality of life and increased community income through self-sufficiency.

Improving Dropout Forecasting during the COVID-19 Pandemic through Feature Selection and Multilayer Perceptron Neural Network

Nowadays, online education in universities is mature from the situation of COVID-19 spread. It has greatly changed the learning environment in the classroom and has also resulted in students’ dropout. The purpose of this study is to examine the factors that influence students’ dropout in the department of information technology of Suan Sunandha Rajabhat University. Students enrolled in the subjects in the COVID-19 pandemic situation must study online at their homes and must take online courses. This study investigated 1,650 student records, 19,450 enrollments, 16,200 grades, and 11,780 social media accounts that had access to all online courses. It was examined how to improve the model's performance by combining feature selection with a multilayer perceptron neural network method. The model was compared to student dropout predictions generated by Logistic regression, Decision Tree, Random Forest, Naive Bayes, Support Vector Machine, and Multilayer Perceptron Neural Network, with feature selection (1). The 10-Folds Cross Validation method was used to determine the efficiency of the Gain Ratio, Chi-Square, and Correlation-based Feature Selection models to compare accuracy, precision, sensitivity, F1 score, and classification error rate (e). After adjusting the modeling parameters, the multilayer perceptron neural network method combined with CFS characterization achieved an accuracy of 96.98%. The study’s findings indicate that the feature selection technique can be used to improve the neural network model's efficiency in predicting student dropout during a COVID-19 pandemic. Furthermore, the simulation can improve student dropout forecasting during spread out that persists.
