A Model of Learning management promote competency According to the National qualifications frameworks of the Northern College of Agriculture and Technology

Abstract

This article aims to 1) study the current and desired states, 2) create and develop a model, and 3) evaluate a learning management model designed to promote competency according to the National Qualifications Frameworks at the Northern College of Agriculture and Technology. The research employs a mixed-method approach, combining both quantitative and qualitative methodologies. The study frameworks is based on concepts related to learning management and the factors influencing it, as well as the components of model development. The tools used include 1) questionnaires and 2) semi-structured interviews. The participants include 380 directors and teachers from the Northern College of Agriculture and Technology, selected purposively, and model colleges known for their exemplary practices. Data were analyzed using means, standard deviations, and content analysis, with descriptive narrative writing. The research findings indicate that the highest need is in the area of planning and preparation for learning management, followed by the development of learning media processes, learning creation, and learning assessment. The developed learning management model for promoting competency in accordance with the National Qualifications Frameworks consists of four main components 1) principles of the model, 2) objectives of the model, 3) operating processes of the model, and 4) success conditions of the model. The evaluation results show that the model has the highest level of feasibility and usefulness, making it highly effective for application in educational institutions. The study concludes that the developed learning management model has significant potential to elevate education at the Northern College of Agriculture and Technology. Applying this model in similar institutions can enhance learning management efficiency and effectively promote student competencies as defined by the National Qualifications Frameworks.
