dc.description.abstract | Thailand has endured a serious insurgency problem in
three of its southern provinces since 2004. Many people have
been killed by shootings and bombings; the principle human
targets include soldiers, policemen, teachers and educational
institution. These incidents occur nearly every day. The main
objective of the insurgency group is to separate and rule three
provinces in southern Thailand. They are trying to turn their
fight into a religious conflict and are attempting to widen the
situation; their actions have been misunderstood in the
international community, especially in the Islamic world. The
purpose of this research paper is to analyze and transforming
educational system. This will include the role of globalization
and its effects on Thailand, the particular history of the three
provinces. This qualitative study aimed to identify challenges
of education institution faced with education reform and
violent unrest that has taken place in five Southern provinces
of Thailand, as well as leadership characteristics that emerged
in this context. A purposeful selection was employed for
participant recruitment of the study. Leadership characteristics
that emerged in response to these challenges were becoming
patient, dedicated, and adaptive; guiding changes in
instructional methods; and building collaborations with related
stakeholders. | en_US |
