The objectives of this research were to investigate the problems advantages and satisfaction of graduate students of King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi over the internet network. This survey research was conducted by means of questionnaires which were completed by 1077 samples group of graduate students of King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi inquiring about the problems advantages and satisfaction of the internet access. The statistics used were mean and standard error. This research demonstrates that the problems resulted from obsolete and unfuctional hardware (4.0950). Most advantages of internet presented in this finding were on the grounds that the users can search a variety of knowledge (4.2119). In view of users the satisfaction gained from the internet was based on the fact that the users can search and easily access the information for academic purposes (4.0380).

Presenting information to an e-learning environment is a challenge mostly because of the hypertext/hypermedia nature and the richness of the context and information provides. This paper proposes a dynamic semantic model for e-learning system based on the psycholinguistic theories of human memory Spreading Activation Network (SAN). This work employs a SAN as a technique to provide the interfaces action selection mechanism in an uncertain environment. The paper combines the SAN with the temporal logic to provide an e-learning system that a learning activity level evolves according to their expected contextual relevance. The system differs from the other e-learning by representing dynamic associations between learning activities and the relevance subjects. This system equipped with an Event-Triggered learning interface (context) adaptation component. This component provides multiple parallel processes for perception. These processes provide context screen selection and learning task operation based upon the user current situation. The SAN attempts to achieve a number of goals in an unpredictable complex dynamic environment. Spreading activation explains the predictive top-down effect of knowledge. It supports general heuristics which may be used as the first step of more elaborated methods. This model is suited to deal with the interaction between semantic and episodic memories as well as many other practical issues regarding e-learning including the retroactive effect of semantics over perception. The system uses the SAN to activate the most suitable interface screen (context) in response to the current conditions (learning activities) while the system continues working towards the learning objective goal. The paper presents our efforts to realize such e-learning system. The proposed paradigm has been implemented to develop a prototypical system and the experiments also illustrate the robustness of such an e-learning framework.

This study explored the dietary effect on manure characteristics and potential of biogas production from the manure of dairy cows feeding with pineapple peel as a roughage source. Three mid-lactation primiparous crossbred Holstein dairy cows which had an average body weight of 443.5±10.6 kg and average milk production of 9.6±0.3 kg/d were assigned with three different diet types including T1 T2 and T3. T1 was a control diet which consisted of a mixture of dry Pangola grass and commercial pellet (CL). Moreover T2 was a mixture of dry Pangola grass pineapple peel and CL while T3 was a mixture of pineapple peel and CL. Dairy cow manure was collected on the day 10th after feeding and anaerobic digestion of the dairy cow manure was operated with an HRT of 30 days. Results showed that all diet types gave similar manure characteristics of high organic matter and nitrogen. Average concentrations of TS and COD ranged from 82.59 to 85.78 g/L and 85.47 to 91.47 g/L respectively whereas TAN ranged from 1.54 to 1.67 g/L. However a higher pH of 7.50 was found for the manure of dairy cow fed with T1 while a lower pH of 6.50 was obtained with T3. Besides the highest methane yield of 0.20 m3 CH4/kg VSadded was obtained when using the manure of dairy cow fed with T1 as a substrate followed by T2 and T3 which found at 0.14 and 0.11 m3 CH4/kg VSadded respectively. This indicated the efficient potential of biogas production from the manure of dairy cows fed with pineapple peel which will improve sustainable utilization of agricultural wastes and waste produced from dairy cow farm in the future.

This research study was aimed to investigate the readiness of Thai accountants to enter the ASEAN Economic Community in Bangkok area in order prepare the accountants and students to be ready to enter the ASEAN Economic Community and to prepare educational institutions to develop curriculum or teaching methods focusing on producing skilled accountants ready to enter the ASEAN Economic Community. The sample of this research was 450 accountants in Bangkok including accountants auditors tax auditors certified public accountants and the a limited company account manager. The questionnaire was sent to the sample and the data were analyzed by percentage mean and standard deviation; and One Way ANOVAs was applied to test the hypothesis. The results of the study showed that Thai sample accountants’ readiness to enter the ASEAN Economic Community were as follows. The first readiness was concerning the accounting skills and financial statements knowledge and understanding on the Thai accounting standards and the Thai Financial Reporting Standard with the average level of 4.85. The ability to read English was in the average of 4.78 while the ability to read and write at least one of the ASEAN languages was also in the average level of 1.31. The Information Technology skills which refer to the ability to use at least two popular accounting programs obtained an average level of 4.73 while the knowledge of Thai professional law was 4.65. The average level of knowledge of accounting profession of at least 2 countries was in an average level of 3.21 and the ability to work under the environmental and cultural conditions of ASEAN countries had an average level of 3.33 in terms of Section 3 the comparison of the rules of professional accountancy

The objectives of this research were 1) to study attitude and advertising media exposure of the BTS passengers; 2) to compare the relationship between the BTS passengers’ demographic characteristics and their service behaviors; 3) to compare the differences of the BTS passengers’ demographic characteristics towards their advertising media exposure; and 4) to study the relationship of the passengers’ attitudes on the BTS in-trained advertisement with the BTS passengers’ advertising media exposure. The researcher randomly selected 400 participants through the Cluster sampling method by using the questionnaire as a data collection tool. The analytical statistics included standard deviation mean average and frequency distribution. The hypothesis testing included Chi-square T-Test F-Test (ANOVA) values testing and Pearson Prodcut Moment correlation coefficient. The study found that most respondents were single female at age between 21-30 years old obtained bachelor degree worked as employees of private organizations/state enterprises with an average of below THB 10000 monthly income. The average usage of the BTS service was once in a while during 06.00-09.00 am (Morning rush hour) for leisure purposes (traveling/shopping/personal business). The overall level of the BTS passengers’ attitudes and their advertising exposures wereat moderate level. The results of the research testing demonstrated that 1) passengers with demographic characteristic i.e. the gender difference posed only one aspect of different behavior in using the BTSservice which was the traveling hour. For passengers who were different in gender posed no differentbehavior in using the BTS service. There were 2 aspects found which were the frequency of serviceand the purpose of use. Passengers who were different in demographic characteristic i.e. marital status posed only one aspect of different behavior in using the BTS service which was the purpose of service usage. For passengers who were different in marital status posed no differentbehavior in using the BTS service. There were 2 aspects found which were the frequency of serviceand the purpose of use. Passengers who were different in education level posed only one aspectof different behavior in using the BTS service which was the traveling period. Passengers who weredifferent in demographic characteristics i.e. age occupation and average monthly incomeposed different three aspect of different behavior in using the BTS service that included the frequencyof service the traveling period and the purpose of use 2) passengers with different in demographiccharacteristic i.e. gender difference posed different attitude toward the BTS in-trained advertisingmedia. Female passengers had overall attitude on understanding and sentiment higher than male.Passengers with differences in demographic characteristics i.e. age status education level occupationand average monthly income had no different attitude towards the BTS in-trained advertising media3) passengers with difference in demographic characteristics i.e. gender difference had differentexposure towards the BTS in-trained advertising media. Female passengers were more exposedto all 4 aspects of the BTS in-trained advertising media than male passengers. While passengers withdifferences in demographic characteristics i.e. age status education level occupation and averagemonthly income were overall no differences in terms of their BTS in-trained advertising mediaexposure; and 4) passengers’ attitudes toward the BTS in-trained advertising media were overallcorrelated with the BTS passengers which was relatively high.
