This study aimed to development of indicators for organizing learning based on community context to ensure the quality of education at the basic education level: Confirmatory factor analysis and to test the goodness-of-fit of the structural equation model of indicators for organizing learning based on community context. The sample consisted of 117 teachers from schools under the jurisdiction of the Pattani Primary Educational Service Area Office 1, selected proportionally based on their subject areas. Data were collected using a 21-item, five-point Likert scale questionnaire. Content validity was verified by five experts, with Item-Objective Congruence (IOC) values ranging from 0.80 to 1.00. The overall instrument demonstrated high reliability, with a Cronbach’s alpha coefficient of 0.961. Data analysis employed confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). The findings revealed that organizing learning based on community context management comprises four components with a total of 21 indicators: (1) Concrete experience (CE), (2) Reflective observation (RO), (3) Abstract conceptualization (AC) and (4) Active experimentation (AE). The empirical data demonstrated good model fit, as indicated by the following fit indices: X2 = 262.80, df = 186, p < 0.001; GFI = 0.99; AGFI = 0.90; SRMR = 0.07; RMSEA = 0.06; p-value for test of close fit = 0.99; NFI = 0.98; IFI = 0.99; CFI = 0.99. The standardized factor loadings for each indicator ranged from 0.71 to 0.93. Drawing upon the results of this study, the following recommendations are presented to guide further research should be conducted in diverse contexts and with more varied samples and investigate the outcomes of implementing the developed indicators in real educational settings.
