Abstract

The objectives of this research were to: 1) Study the current and desirable states; and 2) Analyze the priority needs for Samsen Wittayalai School teachers’ development based on the concept of remote working skills. The population of the research was Samsen Wittayalai School. The informants consisted of 147 administrators and teachers at Samsen Wittayalai School. The research instrument in this study was a 5-point rating scale questionnaire on the present and the desirable states. The data were analyzed by frequency distribution, percentage, mean, standard deviation, and modified priority needs index.

The research findings indicated that teachers’ three remote working skills were 1) Remote teaching skills; 2) Remote managing skills; and 3) Socialization and remote interactions skills. Overall, the current state of these skills was at a high level, while the desirable state was at the highest level. The priority needs analysis demonstrated that the first priority needs were remote teaching skills, remote managing skills, socialization and remote interactions skills, respectively. The research result demonstrated the need to promote Samsen Wittayalai School teachers’ remote working skills to efficiently develop their own instructional management and practices for the students’ benefit.
