This study aims to explore and understand the definitions, characteristics, and trends in studying urban vernacular architecture, particularly in Chiang Mai, which holds significant cultural and architectural importance. The research begins with a literature review to collect and analyze definitions and characteristics of urban vernacular architecture from various sources, as well as to identify key trends in this field. The findings reveal that the urban vernacular architecture of Chiang Mai is not just a product of the past but a living testament to the community's commitment to its preservation. It is characterized by the application of traditional construction forms and techniques, a reflection of local culture, materials, and climate, the integration of local traditions with environmental considerations, the connection of local culture and community creativity, and the blending of vernacular concepts with modern design. These distinctive features are a result of the community's active involvement in the conservation and restoration efforts, demonstrating their deep connection to their cultural heritage. This article highlights the importance of studying urban vernacular architecture in preserving culture and promoting sustainable urban development. It also provides clear recommendations for future research and policy development in conserving Chiang Mai's urban vernacular architecture to benefit the community and the public.

The research study on The animation development of creating passive income from intellectual property 1.To explore the creation of an animation about generating passive income from intellectual property and the channels for generating online revenue. 2. To design and develop an animation about generating passive income from intellectual property and the channels for generating online revenue. 3. To assess the target audience’s satisfaction with the animation on creating passive income from intellectual property and the channels for generating online revenue.The research methodology employed the principles of Double Diamond Design Thinking, which consists of four stages: Discover – gathering data and conducting a literature review, Define – establishing the project’s scope, Develop – creating and refining the animation, Deliver – testing the animation with the target audience. The research successfully addressed the objectives. The researcher conducted interviews with five experts who have successfully generated passive income, as well as gathered data from the target audience to analyze and inform the scriptwriting process for the animation. The animation was then evaluated for audience satisfaction. The research findings revealed that the volunteers were more motivated and satisfied with the concept of generating passive income from intellectual property. According to the pre- and post-viewing knowledge test, the percentage of correct answers increased significantly. Before watching the animation, 73.15% of participants answered correctly, while 26.85% answered incorrectly. After watching the animation, 84.67% answered correctly, and only 15.38% answered incorrectly, demonstrating a statistically significant improvement. Regarding audience satisfaction, the top three areas receiving the highest average scores were: Content continuity and clarity (Mean = 4.57, SD = 0.64),The appropriate length of the animation (Mean = 4.54, SD = 0.70), and The clarity of the narration (Mean = 4.48, SD = 0.78). In conclusion, the development of the animation on creating Passive Income through Intellectual Property proved to be effective and practical. It successfully motivated the audience to learn more about and practice generating passive income from their own intellectual property.

This research entitled “Khan Maak Set (Ceremonial Tray Set): Dyes and Banana Leaf Dyeing for Commercial Crafts”, aimed to 1. explore dyeing techniques for banana leaves in commercial crafts and 2. evaluate satisfaction with the developed products. The study employed research and development methodology comprising five key steps: 1. collecting relevant data, 2. experimenting with dyeing techniques, 3. designing the Khan Maak Set prototype, 4. selecting appropriate color shades, and 5. developing the final product. Data were analyzed using mean and standard deviation. The findings revealed that the majority of experts preferred lining fabric for dyeing, and they opted for fabric dyes and selected seven shades as suitable for commercial crafts. Additionally, they identified Kluai Namwa banana leaves as the most appropriate material for dyeing. The experts used a spectrophotometer and qualitative evaluations to assess color outcomes. The final prototype of the Khan Maak Set was designed and refined for practical applications. Satisfaction with the Khan Maak Set (Ceremonial Tray Set): Dyes and Banana Leaf Dyeing for Commercial Crafts found that Dyeing Process: Gradient dyeing of fabrics using banana leaves was found to produce suitable shades, with overall satisfaction averaging 4.55, rated at the highest level. Product Creativity: Practical application of the dyed products received an average satisfaction score of 4.90, also at the highest level. Finally, Business Development: The ceremonial tray set products were recognized for their potential to enhance the craft business, achieving an average satisfaction score of 4.80, again at the highest level.

ABSTRACT

Teaching and learning during the COVID-19 outbreak requires adapting to online teaching. Drawing from still life Had to change to drawing based on still life photographs. The students will not be able to choose the camera angle. and can arrange the lighting yourself at the same time, developing media that allows students to choose camera angles. And being able to arrange the lighting yourself can be a model for students to practice and is considered another option in the application of technology for teaching and learning. The objectives of this research are: 1. Design and develop a multi-touch mobile application that simulates the human body structure for use as a drawing model. Using a variety of digital art techniques. 2. Evaluate the effectiveness of a multi-touch mobile application that simulates human body structure for use as a drawing model. by experts 3. Study the satisfaction of users of a multi-touch mobile application that simulates the human body structure for use as a model for drawing. from a specific sample group. The results of the research found that 1. Able to design and develop a multi-touch mobile application that simulates the structure of the human body for use as a model for drawing. Using a variety of digital art techniques. according to purpose 2. Performance evaluation results of a multi-touch mobile application simulating the human body structure. For use as a model for drawing. by experts has an average of 4.39, which is at a high level. 3. Results of satisfaction assessment from the sample group has an overall average of 4.52, at the highest level.
