The purposes of this research were 1) to develop a 2D animation on the self-care of leprosy patients for public health personnel, Rajpracha Samasai Institute, Department for Disease Control, Ministry of Public Health, 2) to determine the quality of 2D animation media on the self-care of leprosy patients, for public health personnel, Rajpracha Samasai Institute, the Department for Disease Control, Ministry of Public Health, 3) to study the perception and satisfaction of the sample group watching the 2D animation media. The researchers developed the media based on the ADDIE model process. The tools used include: 1) 2D animation media, 2) content and media quality assessment,
3) animation media perception assessment, and 4) satisfaction assessment. The sample used in this research includes 30 health personnel who were public health workers from the Department of Disease Control at Ministry of Public Health and were acquired through simple random sampling. The result found that the content quality assessment was good ( = 4.18, S.D. = 0.84). The media quality was at a very good level ( = 4.60, S.D. = 0.34), the perception assessment of the sample was at a high level, and the satisfaction assessment of the sample was at the highest level ( = 4.74, S.D. = 0.45), Therefore, the 2D animation media on the self-care of leprosy patients for public health personnel at Rajpracha Samasai Institute, Department of Disease Control, Ministry of Public Health, can be considered a practical tool.

Computer programming is now the trend of 21^st century learning, and students will learn how to code from devices that can be controlled easier by smartphones and tablets: Sphero robot. By using this device, students can explore the computer language just like they would learn how to write and read in mother language. Researchers developed a manual of computer programming lessons using the Sphero robot and implemented it with 30 participants from Pakse teacher training college students. They engaged in the Sphero robot in the computer programming lesson for 8 hours. The result showed that computer programming lessons using Sphero robot can develop coding competency of all students without the barrier of basic knowledge skill.

Leaving No One Behind: Achieving the Sustainable Development Goals through Accessibility for People with Disabilities

2023-10-17T16:16:14+07:00

This paper aims to explore the importance of accessibility for people with disabilities in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and to identify accessible resources that have contributed to the achievement of the SDGs for people with disabilities. This study investigates the need for increased investment, collaboration, and awareness to ensure that no one is left behind in the pursuit of sustainable development for people with disabilities. The paper also examines the relationship between disability and specific SDGs, including SDG 4 (Quality Education), SDG 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth), SDG 10 (Reduced Inequalities), SDG 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities), and SDG 17 (Partnerships for the Goals), and how achieving these SDGs can positively impact people with disabilities and the world as a whole. Additionally, the challenges and opportunities in providing accessible resources for people with disabilities are discussed, and the role of library and information centers in providing accessible resources is identified. The paper concludes that accessibility is crucial for people with disabilities to achieve their full potential and contribute to the achievement of the SDGs. To ensure that accessibility is integrated into all aspects of the SDGs, there is a need for increased awareness, investment, and collaboration across sectors. By promoting accessibility, we can create a more inclusive and sustainable world where all people, including those with disabilities, can achieve their full potential and contribute to the achievement of the SDGs.
