INTRODUCTION Nowadays, all countries are at the beginning of the 21st century. The conditions and problems on learning management in higher education need to be adjusted and review in order to solve the problems that arise. Some of these findings indicate that the achievement and problem-solving ability of students in Thailand is low. The research report on graduate employment in the academic year 2015 of King Mongkut's university of Technology Thonburi found the five problems of graduates as follows, working together with colleagues, socializing, problem solving, applications in work, ethics, and human relations (Temsiripot, 2015). The results of students' mathematical ability test when they first entered King Mongkut's university of Technology Thonburi at the bachelor's degree level for the academic year 2017. It was shown that students had problems with low mathematical achievement. They had an average score of 15.72 points out of 54, and there was 21.11 percent of students whom have to study general mathematics (Predasawat, 2017), corresponds to the mathematics exam results in the past three years. The students failed examinations in the mathematics since 2014-2016, 10.12%, 13.05%, and 14.59%, respectively. In one academic year, approximately 2000 students are required to enroll in general mathematics. These problems are caused by learning management. Based on the above information, the student's problems were mathematical achievement and ability to solve mathematical problems, which was a national student's problem. This issue is presented as the main topic of research in the Thailand educational development plan 2017-2032 (Office of the Education Council, 2017). This problem is a global problem in the world of education, especially for students in schools and college students and graduates with problem-solving abilities (Harisman et al., 2020; Hutajulu et al., 2019; Maharani et al., 2019). Robert King wrote in the Student Handbook for 21st Century Learning that new problem solving involves solving mathematical problems. Problem solving consists of critical thinking, creative thinking, collaboration, and communication (King, 2018). These things can be achieved through working together as a brainstorming group to define a problem, analyze the problem, then plan to find the answer, bring relevant knowledge together to develop problem solving and evaluation modes as shown in Figure 1. Figure 1. Steps of troubleshooting Figure 1 shows that in line with the national education association and partnership for the 21st century skills, 3R+4C is defined the core elements of the 21st century learning Volume 10, No 1, February 2021, pp. 121-132 123 framework, where mathematics is one of the 3R subjects (Phanich, 2012). Because of creative thinking, logical thinking, and problem analysis, this can be made in humans to help in solving the problems, forecast, plan, make decisions and apply them in daily life. It is also a tool on improving the quality of life (Ministry of education, 2017). The problems of higher education in Thailand and abroad were presented to higher education institutions. It is needed to initiate the learning process that can train students’ problem-solving skills, especially at mathematics in university, one of which is the integrative learning model. To find a new learning management model that can solve current conditions, researchers agree that we should develop a learning management model in mathematics. The advantages of developing a learning management model in mathematics are to enhance problem-solving ability and mathematics learning achievement. The conditions and problems of learning management in the mathematics should be studied on the first thing, in accordance with the concepts and principles of the systematic model development that consisting of 1) Analysis, 2) Design, 3) Develop, 4) Implement, and 5) Evaluate (Dick, Carey, & Carey, 2005). Therefore, the first thing that researchers should be interested in is developing a learning management model. Study the conditions and problems of mathematics learning management of the undergraduate level. Because that study from student and professors' perspectives are challenges in mathematics learning.The research question is what the students and professors want to solve in learning management of mathematics. we can define it a modern and visible learning management. By studying the conditions and problems of mathematics learning management of undergraduate students to propose a guideline for the development of learning management model in mathematics courses for the university. 2. METHOD This research study was based on the methodology of quantitative survey research. The survey was conducted to observe the learning of mathematics which has been carried out by professors, and questionnaires also conducted to these students and professors so that it is known what learning deficiencies must be improved. The resulting data for each problem was analyzed using R-Studio software to find the results. Those composed of the details were as follow: 2.1. Population and sample The research population consists of two parts. First, the population was 6,178 undergraduate students of studying mathematics at the Faculty of Engineering in Thailand. Second, Population was 164 professors of mathematics department in public universities. The samples of students and professors were selected by stratified sampling that the stratums are Bangkok and region of Thailand. The sample size was calculated by Taro Yamane formula, with the sampling error can occur not more than 5% and then divided in equal proportions as follows. First, 379 undergraduate students were selected by sampling from the Faculty of Engineering in Thailand. Second, 116 professors were selected by sampling from mathematics department in public universities of Thailand. 2.2. Research variables and study duration The independent variables in this research are conditions and problems of mathematics learning management in university, and for the dependent variables consisted of the problem level of mathematics learning management in each area. The period of study is the 2020 academic year. Praekhaow, Chindanurak, Konglok, & Sokhuma, Studying conditions and problems … 124 2.3. Research instruments The research instrument had two parts. First, part A was the background information of the respondents who were the students and professors. Second, part B was the student and professors’ questionnaires of learning management in mathematics were constructed by using problem situations at present with rubric scoring for assessment. The 15 questions of questionnaire were in the format of Likert rating scale 5 levels, where the quality of the questionnaires had been evaluated by relevant experts and try-out in the 30 students. The Item-Objective Congruence (IOC) was used to evaluate the items of the questionnaire based on the score range from -1 to +1, congruent = + 1, questionable = 0 and incongruent = -1.The items that had scored lower than 0.5 were revised. On the other hand, the items that had scores higher than or equal to 0.5 were reserved. It was found that the index of item objective congruence (IOC) of questionnaires, each question was in the range of 0.8 -1.0. The reliability value was calculated by using Cronbach‟s alpha to ensure whether there was internal consistency within the items. Mallery and George (2000) illustrated the value of Coefficient Cronbach‟s Alpha as the following: ≥ 0.9 = Excellent, ≥ 0.8 = Good, ≥ 0.7 = Acceptable, ≥ 0.6 = Questionable, ≥ 0.5 = Poor, and ≤ 0.5 =Unacceptable. Therefore, in order for the research questionnaire to be reliable, its value of Coefficient Cronbach‟s Alpha must be at least 0.7. According to the pre-test, the Cronbach‟s Alpha was found that the value of Cronbach's alpha coefficient was 0.821 for students' questionnaires and 0.812 for professors' questionnaires. It was shown that quality of all tools was more than the required criteria, so the questionnaire was highly reliable. 2.4. Data collection The researcher made a request for permission to the mathematics department of the university that was randomly selected as the sample. The questionnaire was distributed to samples in the university. Student and Professor volunteers answered the questionnaire according to the volunteer's consent document of the Human Research Ethics Committee, King Mongkut's University of Technology Thonburi. Which has conducted the research project evaluation of the researcher and agreed. To pass the human research ethics assessment by certificate number KMUTT-IRB-COA-2020-025. 2.5. Data analysis Calculate the mean of each question of the conditions and problems in the questionnaire.The mean is interpreted by the 5-level Likert Scale rating The Likert criteria. can be seen in the following Table 1 (Wongratana, 2017). Table 1.

The main ideas relationship between professors and students were used to develop mathematics learning management model from factor analysis. These are shown and confirmed by multiple regression analyzes in Table 6 and Table 7. Praekhaow, Chindanurak, Konglok, & Sokhuma, Studying conditions and problems … 128 Table 6.

A significant regression equation was found (F(4,111) = 117.378, p < 0.001), with an R2 of 0.802. The p-values of F statistics for the coefficients indicate whether these relationships are statistically significant. The statistical significance indicates that changes in the independent variables correlate with shifts in the dependent variable. The R-squared is 0.802. Therefore, the problem level of learning mathematics that the independent variables explain collectively equal 80.20%. Table 7.

A significant regression equation was found (F(4,370) = 14338.79, p < 0.001), with an R2 of 0.894. The p-values of F statistics for the coefficients indicate whether these relationships are statistically significant. The statistical significance indicates that changes in the independent variables correlate with shifts in the dependent variable. The R- squared is 0.894. Therefore, the problem level of learning mathematics that the independent variables explain collectively equal 89.40%. Table 6 and Table 7 shows that the results of multiple regression analysis support the ideas of students and professors. There is consistency in the learning management problem that should be addressed by the new learning management model. The model should consist of the first elements being group learning and problem-based learning, the steps of problem solving in mathematics. These will be stimulated by questions, search, actions, presentation, and interaction with peers and professors. 3.2. Discussion Levels of learning management problems for professors and undergraduate students. It appears that overall mathematics students had a medium level of satisfaction in mathematics learning management problems. While the professors were at a high level. That was, students need to adjust to conditions and problems more than professors. This was Volume 10, No 1, February 2021, pp. 121-132 129 consistent with the students' academic achievement and math problem solving ability, which was the problems. These problems arise from lecture learning management. It is also consistent with the hypothesis that the conditions and problems of mathematics learning management of students greater than the professors. Because those students did not learn by practice themselves following the constructivist learning theory (Piaget, 2002) that states that the learners actively construct or make their own knowledge by engaging in activities in their surrounding environment and society; in accordance with the sociocultural theory (Eggen & Kauch, 2011) that states that the learning of human beings occurs as a result of the exchange and comparison of one’s own knowledge with those of the others in the society; in accordance with the pragmatism theory (Eggen & Kauch, 2011) that states that students can learn from their own real experience in doing all activities; and in accordance with the cooperative learning theory (Johnson & Johnson, 2009) and the multiple intelligences learning theory (Gardner & Moran, 2006; Sener & Çokçaliskan, 2018) that state that the group process of the groups that have members with different abilities and characteristics results in the cooperative relationship, competitive relationship, and each individual’s independent working. When considering the conditions and problems of mathematics learning management in various fields from the factor analysis found that there were interesting observations as follows: The professors and students would like to revise their learning management in the following areas of (1) Group learning and problem-based learning, (2) Steps of problem- solving, (3) Learning in real situations, and (4) Presentation and interaction with peers and professors. Thus, researchers seek for contextualized teaching situations, where the student’s environment takes on greater relevance (Romero & Gómez, 2014), and such educational model should offer students tools to understand and interpret the world around them (Hegedus et al., 2017; Valencia-Arias et al., 2019) These research results are consistent with the concepts and principles of the 21st century. The skills are often referred to as the 3Rs+4Cs, the 3Rs are reading, writing and arithmetic, the 4Cs are critical thinking and problem-solving; effective communication; collaboration and team building; and, creativity and innovation. Where mathematics is in the 3Rs of core components (Phanich, 2012). The reason that mathematics makes students creative think logically, work systematically, able to analyze problems, help to solve problems. It helps to predict events, plan, make decisions and apply them in daily life. It was also a tool for studying other sciences, improving the quality of life (Ministry of Education, 2017). It was consistent on issues that we should developed in the 21st century. Those were essential for students and higher education graduates to solve new problems that have not been encountered by myself. Which the problem-solving ability in mathematics problem related to solving real-life problems (Griffin & Care, 2014; Larson & Miller, 2011; Saavedra & Opfer, 2012). The components of the learning management model were presented by professors and students based on the analysis results. Several learning theories support the concept of a new learning management model: Constructivism Theory (Piaget, 2002). Students can learn through social and environmental interactions in different ways. Sociocultural Theory, human learning is the result of exchanging knowledge and comparing one's thoughts with others. Pragmatism Theory (Eggen & Kauch, 2011), students can learn from real experiences and activities. Theory of Cooperative or Collaborative Learning (Johnson & Johnson, 2009), Group processes in subgroups with different members provide mutual assistance in learning, there is brainstorming within each group enabling the group members to see the problem solving approach and learn the steps of problem solving. Praekhaow, Chindanurak, Konglok, & Sokhuma, Studying conditions and problems … 130 The results of research concluded that the new learning management model as shown in Figure 2. Figure 2. Components of a developed learning management model Figure 2 shows the components of knowledge that will be integrated into the development of a learning management model in mathematics. The learning management model should be developed by integrating group learning, studying with problem-based learning and mathematical problem-solving, and enhancing problem-solving and mathematics learning achievement. 4. CONCLUSION Based on research that has been done and discussion of research results, it can be seen that the instructors perceived the need for improvement for the lack of group learning and the lack of problem-based learning. While the students perceived that the instructors did not organize the learning management model that put emphasis on problem-based learning and group learning. Thus, it can be concluded that the instructors and students were in agreement on their needs for the learning management model with an emphasis on group learning, problem-based learning, learning based on thinking for problem-solving with the use of questions to motivate students to search for knowledge, and the classroom presentation for interaction with classmates. Developed learning management styles should arise from the integration of these elements.
