Assessment of arts and cultural festival project the 3rd koree murottal and a...Madpouzee Rubama
Thai society is multi-cultural where people respect differences of religions and cultures as a way of life. Islam also consists of its own identities, especially the Quran recitation; however, the influences, environment, and changes of the society have altered much on its cultures, traditions, and customs. These make some of Islamic practices disappear from the memory of youths. Hatyai University has foreseen the significance of living in the multi-cultural society, and run the Koree, Murottal, and Anasyid recitations competition in order to maintain the culture of Muslims. The Quran recitations will promote peaceful living in the society. The overall picture of the assessment of Arts and Cultural Festival Project: "The 3 rd Koree, Murottal, and Anasyid Recitations Competition for Peace in the South" is found that the participants are satisfied with the project, averagely at the high level at 3.85. Separately, it is found that the benefits of the project reach the highest mean at 3.97, followed by work performance at 3.84, while the public relations and facilities have the mean at 3.82 and 3.71 respectively.
This study examines the performance competency of secondary school teachers in Satun Province, Thailand using a structural equation modeling approach. It analyzes data from 1,048 teachers across both public and Islamic private schools from 1968 to 2002. The results show that three factors - aggressive-defensive, constructive, and passive-defensive - adequately describe teachers' organizational culture and competency. Additionally, the model demonstrates an acceptable fit for both public and private school teachers, indicating no significant differences between the two groups.

ABSTRACT
This study aimed to investigate 1) to compare the competency level of
performance of secondary school teachers in Satun, 2) to check the fit of a structural
equation modeling the performance competency and 3) to test the invariability of a
structural equation modeling of competency of secondary school teachers in Satun province
of Public schools and Islamic private schools. The subjects of study were secondary school
teachers. The subjects were divided into two groups: 1) 300 teachers working for the
Public schools; and 2) 300 teachers working for the Islamic private schools. The subjects
were selected with simple random sampling method. The data were collected through a
questionnaire. The data were analyzed by using linear regression analysis model and to
testing the invariability of the model with multiple group analysis models using LISREL.
The research showed that:
1. The competency levels of performance of secondary school teachers in
the Public schools were higher than the Islamic teaching private schools with statistical
significance at the .001 level by Public schools were higher than the Islamic private schools
at 3.91 and 3.52, respectively.
2. The model was consistent with the empirical data at 2

secondary school teachers of Satun province, the performance competency variable of
teachers. The proportion of variance explained approximately 69 percent influenced by the
total of the constructive culture variable (TE = 0.75), followed by aggressive-defensive
culture (TE = 0.06) influenced both directly positive (DE = 0.85) and indirect negative
(IE = -0.79) and a negative indirect effects (IE = -0.01) of passive-defensive culture

(TE = -0.01), respectively. Although the motive variable coefficient standard direct
negative influence on performance practice (DE = -0.82), but it affects the overall model.
The motive of operational variables The proportion of variance explained by
92 percent by the direct effects of variant aggressive-defensive culture (DE = 0.96) with
the passive-defensive culture (DE = 0.01).
3. The result of the effects models to testing the invariability of the
performance competency of secondary school teachers was found that the model has the
rainstorms with statistical significance at the .05 level; considering the four lines showed
the influence of the different variables that affect the aggressive-defensive culture variables
affecting the motive, aggressive-defensive culture variables that affects performance
competency, constructive culture variables that affecting the performance competency and
motive variables that affects performance competency.
