The study was aimed to investigate the production of banana fiber that was suitable for decorating handicraft basketry examine its effectiveness develop decorative handicraft materials for basketry from fibrous layer on the trunk of the banana tree and promote the obtained knowledge in the community of Plasticseeroong Baanmor Promburi District Singburi Province. The research result could be summarized that the most appropriate production process of dry fibrous layer on the trunk of the banana tree mixed with fibrous layer of paper mulberry was done through mechanical process. After bleaching the mixed fibrous layer was stirred by Hollander beater with the proportion of wet fibrous layer and water at 1:40; 10% of dry of paper mulberry was boiled for three hours in sodium hydroxide at 100degree Celsius then bleached with 1.5% of hydrogen peroxide with 4% of the dry fibrous layer weight at 90 to 95 degree Celsius for two hours. The mixture of wet fibrous layer on the trunk of the banana tree with wet fibrous layer of paper mulberry was 70:30 which was considered appropriate for decorating handicraft basketry. Concerning the examination of mechanical properties of banana tree fibrous layer according to the standard of TAPPI T it was found that the folding endurance of paper value was 144 (N. m/g); the tensile strength value was 32.16 (N. m/g); the tear resistance value was 26.56 (mN.m2/g); and the bursting strength value was at 1.94 (KPa.m2/g). The fibrous layer obtained from on the trunk of the banana tree was fabricated into decorative basketry materials for example flowers palm leave hats flower key chains bags and paraffin coated flowers for bamboo boxed. The attendants’ satisfaction on the training of the production of decorative handicraft materials of basketry from fibrous layer on the trunk of the banana tree to 30 members of the community of Plasticseeroong Baanmor Promburi District Singburi Province concerning the training service speakers training procedures facilities and training benefits was at high level (90.67%) and at average level (9.33%).

This research aimed to study the awareness of impacts on global warming that is relevant to Home Economics knowledge base of Home Economics students Suan Dusit Rajabhat University and compare their awareness of impacts on global warming relevant to the Home Economics knowledge base considering their gender and year of study. The sample was 254 undergraduate students from Home Economics of Suan Dusit Rajabhat University. The research tool was questionnaire. The study revealed that the majority of the sample had been aware of impacts on the global warming relevant to Home Economics knowledge base in a high level. Most of them agreed with the awareness point that students wore the clothes that were appropriate with climate; for example they chose to wear light and thin clothes to reduce workload of air conditioners the students chose food containers made from natural materials instead of Styrofoam containers to reduce waste that took long time to decompose and they planted trees at their residences to reduce home temperature respectively. Comparing the awareness categorized by gender and year of study it was found that the students of Suan Dusit Rajabhat University of different genders had different levels of awareness of the impacts on the global warming relevant to Home Economics knowledge base. The awareness of female students was higher than that of male students and as for year of study the students of Suan Dusit Rajabhat University had different levels of the awareness of the impacts on the global warming relevant to Home Economics knowledge base. The second year students had higher awareness than the first third and fourth year students.

This research aimed to develop and evaluate a blended learning model for Home Economics students at Rajamangala University of Technology to increase teaching and learning effectiveness. The model development was collected from 9 experts. Questionnaires were used to ask for their opinions on the model’s 9 components which were 1) teaching and learning objectives 2) student readiness 3) instructor readiness 4) course plan 5) e-learning courseware design and development 6) teaching and learning environmental availability 7) Blended Learning instruction procedure 8) supportive activities and 9) monitoring and evaluation. To test for effectiveness the experimental one-group and pre-posttest method were used. The sampled group was a class of the first-year students enrolling in Science of Cookery Course at Rajamangala University of Technology Phra Nakhon. The findings suggested that the model was practical. Both the knowledge and self-directed learning post-test scores were higher than the pre-test scores. Moreover the students were highly satisfied with the model.

The purposes of this research are to study: 1) understanding of water and electricity saving 2) water and electricity consumption behavior 3) to compare water and electricity consumption behavior classified by personal characteristics of the students Faculty of Home Economics Technology Rajamangala University of Technology Phra Nakhon. This research was descriptive research. The sample group was specified to be 325 people by stratified sampling. The reliability of this questionnaire is 0.87. Statistics used was descriptive and inferential statistics. The research result revealed that: 1) The overall of understanding and knowledge regarding electricity saving of the students is in the moderate level. 2) The overall of water and electricity consumption behavior of the students is in the moderate level. 3) The comparison of behavior of water and electricity consumption specified according to personal characteristics could be summarized that the students in different genders classes and majors had identical water consumption behavior and the students in different genders and classes had identical electricity consumption behavior. On the other hand the students having different majors had statistically different electricity consumption behavior at 0.05.

This research has the objectives to study about level of virtue and ethics and to compare virtue and ethics of students Faculty of Home Economics Technology Rajamangala University of Technology Phra Nakhon categorizing according to personal factors.
