Sudarat Piriyamatee — 2026-04-27

This research aimed to develop and evaluate the efficiency of educational games for teaching English vocabulary on the topic "On the Farm" for Grade 2 students. The study also compared learning achievement before and after the intervention and explored student satisfaction toward the learning management. The research was conducted with a purposive sample of 20 Grade 2 students from Ban Nong Nang Loeng School. The research instruments included lesson plans incorporating educational games, pre- and post-tests, and a satisfaction evaluation form.

The results indicated that: The efficiency of the educational game activities (E1/E2) was 81.25/81.75, which exceeded the established 80/80 criterion. The post-test mean score ( =16.35, S.D.=1.30) was significantly higher than the pre-test mean score ( =9.55, S.D.=2.25) at a .05 level of statistical significance. The overall student satisfaction was at the highest level ( =4.73, S.D.=0.40). These findings suggest that learning management through educational games effectively enhances learning achievement within the context of the study group.

Executive Functions: Developing New Frameworks for Learners in the Digital Age

Benchaporn Swangsri — 2026-04-27

This review provides knowledge on executive functions (EF) and proposes practical directions for integrating EF into Thai education in the digital era. It highlights three core EF components: inhibitory control, working memory, and cognitive flexibility as foundational mechanisms for deep learning, self-regulated learning, and 21st-century learner competencies. The review draws on empirical studies from both Thai and international contexts, focusing on EF-related instructional practices in mathematics, physical education, and educational technology. Findings suggest that Thai studies commonly emphasize culturally grounded and socially interactive activities (e.g., rule-based games and collaborative learning), whereas international research more frequently employs structured interventions supported by advanced technologies such as virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and adaptive learning platforms. Across contexts, converging evidence indicates that sustainable EF development is most likely when EF is embedded within meaningful, cognitively demanding learning tasks rather than trained in isolation. The review, therefore, underscores the potential of integrated learning design to advance both EF and learner competencies in the digital age.
