Academic Development, Enhancing Computational Thinking Skills, Computational ThinkingAbstract
This descriptive research aimed to: 1) study the priority need of academic development; 2) propose approaches for academic development of the school under royal patronage based on the concept of enhancing students’ computational thinking skills. The population were schools under royal patronage. This study was descriptive research. There were 240 informants consisting of 52 administrators and 188 teachers. Administrators were the school director, deputy directors for academic affairs, assistant directors, 8 heads of subjects. The research instruments were rating-scaled questionnaires
and rating-scaled appropriability and possibility evaluation forms. The data were analyzed by frequency distribution, percentage, mean, standard deviation, PNImodified and mode.
The results were as follows. 1) The first priority needs index was measurement and evaluation; the second priority needs index was instructional management; and the last priority needs index was curriculum development respectively. 2) There were three approaches for academic development: (1) Measurement and evaluation focusing on abstraction and algorithm design; (2) Instructional management focusing on abstraction, algorithm design, decomposition and pattern recognition; (3) Curriculum development focusing on pattern recognition and algorithm design.
