Abstract

This research aims 1) to design and develop a curriculum structure monitoring system for the Faculty of Management Sciences, Nakhon Si Thammarat Rajabhat University, 2) to evaluate the effectiveness of the curriculum structure monitoring system for the Faculty of Management Sciences, Nakhon Si Thammarat Rajabhat University, and 3) to assess user satisfaction with the curriculum structure monitoring system for the Faculty of Management Sciences, Nakhon Si Thammarat Rajabhat University. The research sample group comprised students, advisers, academic program heads, and staff. Data was selected by using a purposive sampling method, totaling 228 individuals, along with three experts in system development. The instruments used for gathering data were a questionnaire which assesses system performance and a questionnaire which evaluates user satisfaction with system usage. The statistic for data analysis was the mean (M) and the standard deviation (SD).


In this research, the curriculum structure monitoring system was developed for the Faculty of Management Sciences at Nakhon Si Thammarat Rajabhat University. Utilizing the Rapid Application Development (RAD) methodology, this web application was designed for compatibility with mobile devices, ensuring accessibility and convenience. The system gathers data from multiple sources and standardizes it through the Extract, Transform, Load (ETL) method. This enables convenient and rapid inspection of academic outcomes according to the curriculum structure. The information is presented in a dashboard format, using Google Looker Studio, facilitating advisors and program directors in providing guidance to students throughout their academic journey within the curriculum structure. The overall performance evaluation of the system was at a very high level (M = 4.75, SD = 0.69), and the satisfaction assessment results from the user group indicated a very high level of satisfaction (M = 4.66, SD = 0.65).
