Authors:กฤต โสดาลี Pages: 1 - 20 Abstract: The purposes of the current study were to study the creation of novels of Prapt’s crime fiction and to study Thai culture representation used by the author in creating crime fiction. The scope of the study was 3 Prapt’s crime fictions including Kahon Mahoratuk (2014), Nirat Mahannop (2015), and Ling Pad Gwlorn (2018). The results of the study show that the author includes Buddhism religious places, social history, and historical events that exist in Thai society. Moreover, the presence of language, literature, believe, and laws in the three crime fictions make them represent 6 characteristics of Thai cultures including representation of Thai cultures and ladylike, representation of Thai cultures and architecture, representation of Thai cultures and ecosystem, representation of Thai cultures and beliefs, and representation of Thai cultures and composition.

Authors:ทำนอง วงศ์พุทธ Pages: 21 - 41 Abstract: Abstract This article is part of a larger study entitled “Deconstruction: Concept, Theory, and Approaches to Literary Criticism”. The study intends to examine deconstruction for two purposes: 1) to delve into the concept and theory of deconstruction and 2) to implement approaches to literary criticism from a deconstruction perspective. The study complied knowledge from books about literary theories and literary criticism theories and applied such theoretical knowledge into analyzing Thai literary works. This article reports on the analysis of Mia Luang in answer to the second purpose. The analysis shows that there are two levels of textual meaning. While the first level is the key meaning conveyed through the story plots, the other level contains the opposite meaning hidden in the specific logic. The important binary oppositions found in the novel include fidelity/adultery, progressivism/conservatism in light of gender equality, and essence/appearance. At the level of plot-derived meaning, these binary oppositions are presented foregrounding the first element over the other element. Fidelity is favored over adultery, given that the latter causes problems for women. Progressivism which stresses the importance of gender equality is also more valued than conservatism prevailing in the male-dominated society. Moreover, love or affection is the essence which is regarded as more important than prestige, fame, and money which are the appearance. However, the scrutiny of the specific logic reveals the opposite meaning which implicitly values the second element over the first one. In the first pair, adultery is more valued than fidelity. This contrary logic shows that adultery is the quality of men that women desire to possess. In the second pair, conservatism is given more value than progressivism. This is because the female protagonist is positioned as fighting against conservatism. In the third pair, however, the essence is not foregrounded over appearance. This can be explained for two reasons. First, love and affection play a similar role as do prestige, fame, and money. This instills the feeling into the characters that they are superior in status to others. Second, the story has a contrary logic that actually presents the characters who are the target of possession on the side of appearance.

Authors:กาญจนา สหะวิริยะ Pages: 42 - 72 Abstract: The purpose of this research was to study how Thai learners use synonymous adverbs in Korean in terms of semantic classification and correct usage according to Korean grammar. The sample group consisted of 217 third-year students majoring in Korean language. The research instrument was a competency test on the use of adverb of time, “이미-벌써” “지금-이제” “어서-얼른”. The statistics used in the data analysis were mean and percentage. The findings revealed that 1) Thai students were not able to correctly classify the meanings and terms of use according to the Korean grammar of synonymous adverbs. This is due to the fact that synonymous adverbs in Korean have their own set of semantics and grammatical words. As a result, when adverbs of time are synonymous, they convey the same meaning and can be interchanged. They are frequently perceived to have distinct meanings and are not interchangeable. The results were as follows: 1.1) the adverb “벌써” and adverb “이미” signified “past tense” these words are identical and interchangeable. But Thai students gave wrong answers with the percentage of 81.79. 1.2) the adverb “지금” and adverb “이제” implied “present simple tense” these words are similar and interchangeable. But then Thai students gave wrong answers with the percentage of 73.87. 1.3) the adverb “어서” and adverb “어른” meant “The desire to do something smoothly and continuously in the future” these words are comparable and substitutable. On the other hand, Thai students gave wrong answers with the percentage of 82.2 Thai students have a limited understanding of Korean grammatical terms related to inflectional language. The appearance of synonymous adverbs with different words and grammar, as well as their syntactic endings, can lead to confusion when selecting synonymous adverbs to match their meaning.

Authors:สรายุทธ เลิศปัจฉิมนันท์, รัตน์จิต ทองเปรม Pages: 73 - 96 Abstract: Abstract Many studies about happiness and well-being that are solely based on statistical methods in Japan suggest that the subjective senses of happiness are not correlated with the objective indicators of well-being. This contradiction alternates the study of happiness and well-being in Japan turn back to an ontological attitude such that the attention is paid to the understanding of the nature of life that is existing in the world as being in the here and the now. The result of the study presented in this work shows that it is similar to Heidegger's fundamental ontology that pays attention to the understanding of the essence of Dasein as being in the world.

Authors:Pasara Namsaeng Pages: 182 - 206 Abstract: Abstract Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) can promote critical thinking skills through different tailored teaching approaches by considering the CLIL framework. This article aims to raise awareness of the use of CLIL in promoting undergraduates’ critical thinking skills in educational institutions in Thailand, as well as to propose the teaching model underlying the 4Cs Framework of CLIL. The literature review covers the principles and advantages of CLIL, critical thinking and CLIL, the application of the CLIL model of 4Cs’ integration, and the potential for promoting critical thinking skills in Thailand. The proposed CLIL teaching model indicates three stages: input, process, and output. At the stage of input, Content and Culture will play a significant role in receiving knowledge. During the stage of the process, Cognition will be emphasized by identifying knowledge and language. Finally, the stage of output will focus on Communication during students’ tasks. The proposed steps are merely three rough steps underlying the CLIL principles. However, the detailed steps to follow may require needs analysis, individual differences, and practitioners’ individual techniques. Anyhow, further studies should focus more on the implementation of the CLIL model in actual classrooms.
