Introduction Thailand will face significant changes both domestically and internationally and the changes are rapid and complex more and more. It is both an opportunity and a risk for country development. Therefore, it is necessary to bring the existing immunity and accelerate the strengthening of the 543 Edelweiss Applied Science and Technology ISSN: 2576-8484 Vol. 8, No. 4: 542-552, 2024 DOI: 10.55214/25768484.v8i4.1147 © 2024 by the authors; licensee Learning Gate country immunity to prepare for the people, society, and economic system of the country for reaching adaptability and being able to facilitate the impact of changes appropriately, making the country developed accordingly. Implementing Thailand 4.0 policy to achieve prosperity, stability, and sustainability, education reform and the country’s educational management process are the most important mechanism. Currently, Thailand model of educational management in terms of educational system, instructional curriculum, measurement and evaluation, and educational management structure is not consistent with and not conducive to the policy. The quality of education occurs to learners cannot be measured and evaluated at all. There should be the decentralization of power to educational institutions to be a juristic person that is responsible for the outcome of educational management. Ministry of Education must be smaller. There must be the separation between the policy, supervision, monitoring, and operations departments but they must be linked together in order to ensure the structure can respond to the needs of Thailand 4.0 [1] In education reform, the power must be decentralized to educational institutions as required by laws. The roles between regulator and operator must be clearly separated. The centralized system provides a channel for seeking benefits, a lack of monitoring system, which will affect the overall quality of education in the country. This is consistent with [2] proposing that things must not be the same. The size of Ministry of Education must be reduced 10 times, the educational goal must be changed from creating followers to creating leaders, learning must be focused instead of teaching, methods of learning and teacher production must be adjusted, etc. Education reform is a major challenge for all sectors and success can be achieved through effective management that is ready for the challenges and changes that arise, especially the development of essential skills for the 21st century and becoming Thailand 4.0 that require effective human capital management and development [3]. Education is an important tool for building people, society and nation. Ministry of Education by Office of the Education Council prepared the National Education Plan 2017 – 2036 to set a frame of goals and direction of the country educational management. Emphasis is placed on providing education for all Thai people to be able access opportunities and equality of quality education, developing effective educational management, developing people to have work competencies consistent with demands of labor market and the country [4] under the expectation that education is the major mechanism for developing quality people to be able to live happily with other people in the rapidly changing society of the 21st century. The administrative management of Faculty of Physical Education, Thailand National Sports University is an administrative concept that will be a mechanism driving education reform to be successful. However, according to the synthesis of the concepts, principles and methods of the administrative management, it was found that Faculty of Physical Education needs to adopt those concepts, principles and methods to determine an indicator. Faculty of Physical Education, Thailand National Sports University is a juristic institution of higher education under the supervision of Ministry of Tourism and Sports. It provides undergraduate program in physical education (4 years) (revised curriculum B.E. 2562). The curriculum was improved from the Bachelor of Education curriculum, consistent with the national economic and social development plan, aiming at producing graduates to meet local and social needs. The goal is to promote physical, mental, emotional, social, and intellectual development, generosity, and athletes. Emphasis is placed on theory-practice learning, adhering to collaboration with the educational institution and community organizations that shall lead to professional development and student development. Consequently, the researcher is interested in studying the issue that if an indicator model for administrative management of Faculty of Physical Education, Thailand National Sports University is made and developed to be a base comprehensively covering the mission of the educational institution in terms of the role of supporting decentralization and the role of being a juristic educational institution, it will be beneficial to Thailand National Sports University in selecting the indicator for preparing a tool in directing, monitoring, and managing the Faculty of Physical Education, Thailand National Sports University to be more efficient. 544 Edelweiss Applied Science and Technology ISSN: 2576-8484 Vol. 8, No. 4: 542-552, 2024 DOI: 10.55214/25768484.v8i4.1147 © 2024 by the authors; licensee Learning Gate 2.

Rule of Thumb was used to determine a fairly large sample [5] [6] suggest that the ratio of sample size to the number of variables should not less than 10:1 in factor analysis. Therefore, there were 49 indicators in total and the sample consisted of 490 persons selected by cluster sampling. 6. Research Instruments 6.1. A Semi-Structured Interview from 5 Experts A 5-rating scale questionnaire about factors of the development of an indicator model for the administrative management of Faculty of Physical Education Thailand National Sports University, the road to a sports learning organization in ASEAN 7. Data Analysis The analysis of factors of the development of an indicator model for the administrative management of Faculty of Physical Education Thailand National Sports University the road to a sports learning organization in ASEAN was conducted as follow: 1. Find out the mean (x) and standard deviation (S.D.) of factors of the development of an indicator model for the administrative management of Faculty of Physical Education Thailand National Sports University, the road to a sports learning organization by using the criteria of the interpretation of mean scores in accordance with the concept proposed by [7] as follow: 2. Confirmatory factor analysis of factors of the development of an indicator model for the administrative management of Faculty of Physical Education Thailand National Sports University, the road to a sports learning organization in ASEAN was performed to verify factors of the development of an indicator model for the administrative management of Faculty of Physical Education Thailand National Sports University, the road to a sports learning organization in ASEAN using maximum likelihood (ML) method. Significant statistics used for verify congruence between the indicator and the empirical data were Chi - Square /df, GFI (Goodness of Fit Index) , AGFI (Adjusted Goodness of Fit Index), and RMSEA (Root Mean Square Error of Approximation) based on the following criteria: 1. Chi - Square statistic is a statistical tool used to test a statistical hypothesis that the consistency of function has a value of zero. If the chi-square statistic value is very low or close to zero, it means that Lisrail model data are consistent with the empirical data. If the data are highly skewed, the chi-square will be higher than normal. Besides, chi-square values depend on the sample. The larger the sample is, the higher chi-square values become, leading to incorrect conclusion. Therefore, it can be determined based on the relative chi-square value (chi-square/dt) which should be less than 2.00. 2. Goodness of Fit Index: GFI is the ratio of difference between the function of consistency model before and after adjusting the model to the function of consistency model before adjusting the model. A GFI value greater than 0.90 meaning the model is consistent with the empirical data. 546 Edelweiss Applied Science and Technology ISSN: 2576-8484 Vol. 8, No. 4: 542-552, 2024 DOI: 10.55214/25768484.v8i4.1147 © 2024 by the authors; licensee Learning Gate 3. Adjust Goodness of Fit index: AGFI is GFI that is revised and considered the size of variables and sample. The term is used in the same way as GFI. GFI and AGFI values equal to or close to 1 show that the model is consistent with the empirical data. 4. RMSEA (Root Mean Square Error of Approximation) indicates the inconsistency of the developed model against the population variance matrix. RMSEA less than 0.05 indicates that the value that is valid and assumes that the model developed corresponds to the model should not greater than 0.08. 8.

Discussion The analysis of confirmatory factors for indicators of the development of indicators for the administrative management of Faculty of Physical Education Thailand National Sports University, the road to a sports learning organization in ASEAN can be discussed as follow: 11.1. Administrative Management Mechanism Information and communication technology development system for sports learning in ASEAN, strategy setting, manpower planning, organizational structure management for sports learning in ASEAN, systems and mechanisms for building networks with universities in ASEAN, such as information database network, digital services network, cooperation network in various fields of 549 Edelweiss Applied Science and Technology ISSN: 2576-8484 Vol. 8, No. 4: 542-552, 2024 DOI: 10.55214/25768484.v8i4.1147 © 2024 by the authors; licensee Learning Gate development, development of the capacity of executives and personnel in the faculty for sports learning in ASEAN. This is consistent with the concept proposed by [8] mentioning that currently training is a very common method for leadership development. Personnel are developed to have knowledge and competence in paperwork and correspondence work in English, to have ability in using English language practically. There should be a system and mechanism for exchanging teaching/research/academic and professional services/nurturing the culture of personnel with universities in ASEAN. There should be a relevant online research database that can be easily accessed 24 hours a day. Similarly [9] said that self-directed learning is independent learning, suitable for learning outside educational setting. The process of self-guidance is human nature. It will be most successful when learners are highly responsible. The administrative management of the faculty to excellence in physical education and sports under Thailand Quality Award (TQA criteria) should require participation and preparedness to enhance a lifelong learning organization, consistent with a research study conducted by [10] finding that 9 factors for preparedness of private higher education institutions towards student development to support careers are 1) planning, 2) identity building, 3) the use of technology, 4) career development, 5) learning management, 6) cooperation, 7) curriculum, 8) the quality of lecturers, and 9) student skill development. 11. 2. The Quality of Regular Lecturers In order to ensure personnel has English language preparedness for sports learning in ASEAN, there should be an exchange of sports personnel for sports learning in ASEAN so as to standardize sports learning in ASEAN. Emphasis is placed on producing quality research to create new knowledge and innovation, the numbers of research or creative work generated from cooperation of personnel in the faculty that can be disseminated internationally, the development of competency, knowledge, ability, and work skills of personnel in cooperation with ASEAN countries , the development of lecturers to have knowledge and skills that are ready and suitable for working in the 21st century, especially in digital technology, languages and communication. This is consistent with [11] the fourth component - instructor, saying that instructors are an important factor in producing graduates. According to study results of [12], it was found that the overall problem of instructor development of Rajabhat University Rattanakosin group was at a moderate level. The areas with the highest problem were writing academic textbooks and articles, followed by research, the nurture of art and culture was at the same level to academic services, and the area with the lowest problem was being an advisor. This is consistent with study results of [13] on management model for lecturer development in Southeast Asia University as it was found that the model for lecturer development consisted of 4 aspects, namely, 1) management of agencies promoting teaching and learning efficiency, 2) management of agencies supporting teaching and learning, 3) management of teaching development activities and 4) management of research development activities. 11.3. Learning Management A curriculum that is accredited to international professional standards that graduates can work in ASEAN countries or internationally, international programs that are prepared in collaboration with ASEAN community countries are available, courses in the credit bank for life-long learning that learners receive from occupations, training, formal and non-formal education and lifelong informal education. This is in line with [14] saying that a curriculum is like a compass to change people’s lives and something that determines and reflect the concept of learning including educational activities for learners. It is necessary that schools need to develop its curriculum to ensure learners achieve lifelong learning. Systems and mechanisms for developing and administering a curriculum related to working language and quality assurance mechanism for curricula-related education. The achievement level of the education quality assurance system is based on AUN (ASEAN University Network) or Ed PEx (Education Criteria for Performance Excellence). A curriculum must determine a guideline for credit transfer with universities in ASEAN community. The number of courses is taught remotely or through 550 Edelweiss Applied Science and Technology ISSN: 2576-8484 Vol. 8, No. 4: 542-552, 2024 DOI: 10.55214/25768484.v8i4.1147 © 2024 by the authors; licensee Learning Gate educational media, such as e-learning for sports learning in ASEAN. [15] summarized curriculum issues and content for development; they are important for successful training. Online information technology system, teaching methods, and learning management should be aware of the importance of learning management, such as teaching and learning methods, appropriate instructional media for sports learning in ASEAN. A curriculum for self-learning is created so as to produce manpower having competencies that meet the needs of workplaces, a curriculum focuses on occupations. Emphasis is not placed on a degree. The quality of teaching and learning is developed. The quality of modern teaching and learning is increased and learning efficiency is focused including distance education and learning through new electronic media. This is consistent with study results of [16] finding that computer-based learning and learning via the internet to support content learning and the use of knowledge resources on the internet had a greater impact on improving individual learning outcomes for learners than traditional teaching alone. A network of educational cooperation should be established with professional organizations, sports associations and workplaces. Teaching and learning model should be developed to promote modern learning to keep up with changes. Learning experience teaching model should be developed, including learning by doing or encountering problems by oneself, work-integrated education. Standards for English and computer technology proficiency should be provided before graduation. Integrative education management, practical training theory and knowledge in life skills should be available to develop students to have ability in innovation, careers, and global citizenship. The use of information and communication technology (ICT) will help learning and increase efficiency of education management, such as promoting continuity of learning outside school and informal education, new learning platforms. 11.4. Student Capability Enhancement Students must pass an English proficiency test at a practical level. Students have a place for practicing professional experience in an organization, institution, and agency in ASEAN community countries. Student exchange program in ASEAN countries is promoted. Activities that develop desirable characteristics of graduates are held to be consistent with working in ASEAN countries. This is in harmony with study results of [17] finding that learners had development, i.e. learning and innovation skills, information, media, and technology skills, core subject skills, and essential learning support system, activities or academic events that promote knowledge about sports are held with ASEAN countries, the development of analytical thinking skills to seek knowledge in ASEAN countries. This is consistent with [18] mentioning characteristics of basic educational institution management; capability in administrative management, creativity, and proactive role in uncertain situations, ability to analyze and distinguish and communicate accurate information through various technological media and devices properly. In order to create a learning process that is in a correct sequence and can be adjusted according to a situation, students should be able to apply knowledge, work skills, and specific skills in accordance with the performance of their career fields to become smart students with necessary skills in the 21st century. This is consistent with [19] [20] finding that leadership of school administrators in the 21st century consisted of vision, management, curriculum and teaching management, communication, teamwork, academic innovation development, thinking process development and intellectual stimulation. The development of high performance graduates must be the competencies required by agencies in government, private, civil society, and community sectors. 11.5. Athlete Capability Enhancement to Excellence Formulating an explicit plan to develop athlete capability to excellence, long-term planning to promote and develop athlete capability to excellence. Promotion is available for athletes to participate in international sports competitions, students receive awards from participating in international sports events. Athletes should be encouraged to achieve excellence. Professional coaches and specialized sports scientists are provided. Universal management is offered including budgets, materials, durable articles or qualified trainers. This is in line with [21] studying physical and academic sports in an international 551 Edelweiss Applied Science and Technology ISSN: 2576-8484 Vol. 8, No. 4: 542-552, 2024 DOI: 10.55214/25768484.v8i4.1147 © 2024 by the authors; licensee Learning Gate situation as it was found that the university’s sports financing mechanism required an allocation of adequate budget while public and private funding sources must be sought. It is consistent with [22] studying strategic development of the University of Technology of Jamaica to build the best student athletes in the world in order to develop high level athletes to achieve excellence. The university provided a scholarship system to support it. Selecting good athletes and coaches required a classy leader or team of staff, leading to the selection process. Students who will become athletes to excellence are able to choose to study in any faculty. Sports Intelligence Center selects athletes to enter the program to achieve excellence.
