The paradigm of educational administration based on the Tri-Sikkha (Threefold Learning) Approach

Abstract

This article aims to present the management paradigm of educational institutions based on the Tri-Sikha principle. The results of the study found that: The educational administration paradigm is a very important concept in determining the direction and format of education management, especially in the context of Thailand, which has a strong cultural foundation and Buddhist beliefs. The main idea of this paradigm is to integrate Buddhist principles with modern administration, focusing on the holistic development of learners, not only in terms of academics, but also in terms of behavioral, mental, and intellectual development. This paradigm has changed with the times, from focusing on control and command to focusing on participation and developing the potential of personnel. In addition, it must also adapt to cope with the challenges of the globalization era and the digital revolution. However, the implementation of this paradigm in practice is still challenging, especially in adapting it to suit the context of each educational institution and integrating Buddhist principles with teaching and learning in general subjects. In the future, the trend of this paradigm will focus on developing skills necessary for the 21st century, along with cultivating morality and ethics, in order to produce graduates with both knowledge and morality, who can effectively adapt and cope with changes in the world. In summary, the educational administration paradigm in line with Buddhist principles aims to create a balance between academic development and moral development, in order to produce graduates with quality and become an important force in the development of the country.
