This is a learning project that anyone can participate and share knowledge.
The project aims to translate *Acariya Klin's notes (in Thai) into English and onto webpages. In hope that his insightful notes can benefit learners (teachers and students) the world over, by showing that learning can be personal, interesting and empowering experience, and that learning can produce useful results while it is building knowledge. To set the project off on the right note: (1) I hereby formally ask Acariya Klin and the website where the note is published for permission to use the material in <http://cur.labschools net/bpt/klin.htm> for the purpose of this project. An example of use is presented below. In addition, I ask for grace in events of mis-representation and mis-rendering of the intented messages or meanings with in the material. Further work, will progress only after such permission is publically given. (2) You are welcome to get involved in anyway you can, as you will see later in the notes that 'holistic' view (or web of relations) about one focal issue may link to many issues (in the way that the law of Khamma superimposes) rather than just one opposing issue (as in 'action equals reaction' laws), thus you can help completing the whole project.

I have 'faith' that the stories are based on real life (but names and some personal vitae have been altered to protect those involved). The stories may remind people of the 'paramis' (Paali for power) of good deeds. Yes, you have inspired me to inspire other people . Thank you. SR (IP:144.134.69.54) --- ความเห็นเพิ่มเติมที่ 244 6 พ.ค. 2551 (18:03) ขอบคุณมาก ๆ ค่ะ คุณ SR Salute! --- SR(144.134.69.101) ความเห็นเพิ่มเติมที่ 118 3 ต.ค. 2551 (18:10) Let us recap what we have been talking about in the last few weeks. We have looked at difficulties in translating Thai to English. We have realized that English is very much a markup language and Thai is very much free-form. We have noted that XML is a markup up language for computing text and compared XML to HTML on their design usage. We have looked at an example of how we could compute meaning from Thai text. We could see that we need to separate Thai text into words, then recombine words into clauses (which we called 'parts') and sentences and so on. We could then use (a Turing Machine to do) 'pattern matching' to map Thai parts to English parts. After that we would magically link parts into sentences and complete the translation. (Replace 'magically' with 'grammatically', please SR (IP:58.165.113.240) ความเห็นเพิ่มเติมที่ 119 7 ต.ค. 2551 (17:59) We have talked about decisions as 'choosing r objects from a set of n objects' (in math parlance 'n choose r') and we could look into (branches of mathematics like) combinatorics, probabilities, (random) graphs and so on. But here we have simplified by limiting ourselves to '2 choose 1' or choose either 0 or 1 (false or true, no or yes,... our simple dyadic logic). We have learned that we often divide objects for decisions into 2 subsets by tagging them 'good' or 'bad' ( 0 or 1 ), choose a subset and repeat (recursively) until we have just 1 object (in English 'we have no choice') to choose (1 choose 1) or decide. So, this simplification is not unrealistic. sr (IP:58.169.193.175) ความเห็นเพิ่มเติมที่ 120 10 ต.ค. 2551 (16:22) How to build a structure (or how to think creatively): SR (IP:124.179.160.73) ความเห็นเพิ่มเติมที่ 121 13 ต.ค. 2551 (16:55) We have talked about building strctures from parts - great structures from little parts. People look at structures in many ways. We will look at structures in this (controversially) altruistic way. It is the way we want to see our world. It is the way we want to creatively think about our world. With this (idealistic) "right view", we see all different parts as they are. Each part has a place and a role within the structures. We are a part in our family, our community, our society, our world... Each of us has a position and a role. Everyone is important and necessary to our whole structure. Everyone depends on others, at one time or another, in so many ways. We say with tongue in cheek that the heart of any good structure is "all for one, and one for all". SR (IP:138.217.120.59) ความเห็นเพิ่มเติมที่ 122 16 ต.ค. 2551 (09:18) Let us revisit PTM and Fibonacci sequences. This time we will think about and beyond their construction. SR (IP:124.186.75.51) ความเห็นเพิ่มเติมที่ 123 18 ต.ค. 2551 (11:22) Knowing what we now know, we will look at the way we create our life -- again Did you say 'who cares about the past? It is close to New Year so we only care about the present(s)'? SR (IP:143.238.149.66) ความเห็นเพิ่มเติมที่ 124 21 ต.ค. 2551 (03:20) Let us return to our skill building work on practical knowledge processing. <NB. digitise and analyse are English/Australian spelling; American use digitize and analyze.> SR (IP:121.222.246.249) ความเห็นเพิ่มเติมที่ 125 24 ต.ค. 2551 (11:56) The path to success is not smooth or "life is meant to be easy". We could do with help from computer geeks and nerds out there. Any volunteer? SR (IP:124.187.123.137) ความเห็นเพิ่มเติมที่ 126 26 ต.ค. 2551 (02:50) "A public (mega )project to explore and spark interests in knowledge processing and grow many skill-bases, accelerate development and uptake of knowledge technologies in Thailand. if successful, would deliver knowledge processing expertise and tools for national applications such as online curricula repository, 'personalised' education facility and text translation for knowledge transfer."
A project like online curricula repository could serve urgent needs in training. At the time when high flexibility in training skilled workforce is required, a online repository of courses, that can be quickly accessed, verified and included in training programs to meet local and particular needs from planning, costing and implementing, to reporting, reviewing and improving would be a great asset in education; identified these courses, the national workforce profile can be (made) available for national planning and policy making; by allowing public access (to the repository and skill profiles), people can also plan their career and their life; one of the long term benefits is the reduction of government and public costs in mis-education -- where skills acquired are not gainfully utilised or in demand. And so on.
How do we create a public repository of curricula (or courses)? Technically, we have no major problems to set up a server website with databases -- we can do that in a week. Where do courses come from? (or what do I get if I put my course in the repository?) This will need more discussions on intellectual property and reward schemes. How much that course costs? (or what do I pay to do that course?) This again needs more discussions. Are the courses recognized internationally? (Or can I teach/work overseas with the certificates?) Of course, we should aim for global recognition (global quality) - wheresoever (little village) we live!
(I had 'sown the winds' -- more than my fair share of talking.) It's now your turn. What do you say? SR (IP:121.222.245.49) ความเห็นเพิ่มเติมที่ 127 3 พ.ย. 2551 (03:03) Let us take a detour to consider a serious dependency on computer operating systems. We have a few very good OSes. One big happy family of them are 'open source software' (this means we can see and control for ourselves 'what works' and 'how it works'; in contrast 'propriety software' where some -foreign- companies control what and how we work). We can develop a Thai Standard Operating System from one of these open source OSes (Linux, BSD, Minix 3, Beos,...) to maintain our control over security and standard of our information. ความเห็นเพิ่มเติมที่ 128 14 พ.ย. 2551 (17:15) I have a Thai-English version of Aacariya Klin's Notes (posted here) that I mean to revise and polish. If you are interested please email "sanghama@gmail.com" with "Aacariya Klin's Notes" and indicate your preferred format '.doc' (Word) or '.odt' (OpenOffice) or '.html' (browser) in the subject line. I plan to put this up on websites like googlegroups, yahoocities, etc. You can help, of course. Thanks. PS. It seems that Vcharkarn.com is very busy or too slowed lately -- troubled by its own success, no doubts. ความเห็นเพิ่มเติมที่ 129 25 พ.ย. 2551 (05:09) I learned from old friends and public media: Thai society could be infrastructurally weakened by current practices in education and training sector. It is said that we are train our children to dream, to seek wealth, fame and status, and to win by any means. Our leaders-to-be are physically weak (not playing sports, not exercising muscular motors and not learning to endure pains), raised and nurtured in protected environment (or virtual environment of TV, Computer, Internet etc.). Our children learn to choose (or make decisions -- multiple choice examinations) but do not learn to think (or build structures of multiple components -- composition and cooperation). Our public servants (after generations of practices) have learned to do things 'by the boss' rather than 'by the book'. Our society is not served by delegation of duties to autonomous agents (who can exercise their judgement in performing services to the public -- as asserted at the time they 'swear in'). But the public service has become mechaninery for 'the boss' to be driven by whim. Individually and healthwise, we seek to grow with strong body, strong mind and high level of certainties (by the book) to be able to keep out diseases and illness, to be able to perform our roles in society and achieve our own (familial -- familywise) happiness and satisfaction, and to be assured of meeting our basic needs (food, shelter, safety, well-being and 'praternity') for our (familylike) survival and accomplishment. When we become physically weakened, riddled by doubts and driven by whimsical and self-interest desires. We are easily turned into a private machine to be bought and sold by temptation. It is time to wake up and do more exercises! ความเห็นเพิ่มเติมที่ 130 7 ธ.ค. 2551 (04:58) So, we have problems with information infrastructures (see below): from capturing to storing, from cities to rural areas, from users to developers of global applications. At the time when wasting hard earned tax money is 'evil' in any countries, and spending tax money on important infrastructures is 'logical' and 'sensible'. Let us serve our communities by spending tax money on development of 'local' skills and technologies - it is 'devine'. ประชาชาติธุรกิจ วันที่ 04 ธันวาคม พ.ศ. 2551 ปีที่ 32 ฉบับที่ 4059 หน้า 34 ความเห็นเพิ่มเติมที่ 131 14 ธ.ค. 2551 (14:33) I posted in < http://www.vcharkarn.com/vcafe/156926 > ความเห็นเพิ่มเติมที่ 132 20 ธ.ค. 2551 (11:34) We have not mentioned one aspect of the Project Work in this note - that of 'group dynamics'. The children worked together to create solutions. They did not plan nor have pre-organized schedule for the solution. Each child contributed to 'making' solutions individually. They discussed, negotiated and chose a best option at a time. They performed necessary actions to produce outcomes. They collaboratively tested ideas, evaluated the results and made improvements on the solution. The principal helped with resources, encouraged (by listening and not criticizing) and not giving orders. The group dynamics in this note worked excellently. But we missed this point: the solution is not from one individual - it is from the group! ความเห็นเพิ่มเติมที่ 133 23 ธ.ค. 2551 (19:05) This year is closing fast. May I wish you all a merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year? 2552 BE (2009 CE) will be the year of innovations - new ways of doing old things, new approaches for looking after our health and well-being of people we care, new looks and fashions, and so on. For most of us, these 'new' ways will be very likely 'collaborative' (working, living and sharing - together). We cannot afford to act on impulses, biases/preferences or self-centred goals anymore. The Project (of Aacariya Thwatchai) in this note is more than a simple story 'repeated'. It is a story of an 'emergence' of 'collaboration' (the children working together) in a guided (but not 'controlled') manner. It is also a story of how 'innovation'/'new knowledge' is seeded/germinated/started, nurtured/raised/cared and developed/grown to maturity/successful and lasting outcome. <Note> None of the children were experts! We have seen time and time that collaboration among individualistic geniuses is very difficult and often ends in lesser results than anticipated (too many cooks spoil the broth?). Research and Development teams are often made up as groups of highly skilled and individualistic specialists/experts, and they don't work well. We have witnessed teachers in higher grades blaming lower-grade teachers for 'sub-prime' children, and this education crisis had been handled roughly in the same way as the current credit crisis - by throwing money into it and creating 'frenzy' feeding on money. (The problem turned from 'how to improve the quality of our children' to 'how to get larger sum of money' and so the solutions failed our children and their parents.) Let us welcome the new year and wish for a 'collaborative' invention of real solutions. Happy NEW year - together ความเห็นเพิ่มเติมที่ 134 13 ม.ค. 2552 (03:32) We are talking more on the ingredients in a collaborative problem solving recipe (A. Thwatchai's project as told by A. Klin). We note that 1) The children are the most important ingredients - and no! They are not experts, specially gifted geniuses, nor well equipped with financial support. The children are just 'ordinary little people' like us. 2) The problem is solved by collaborative experiments with support from the principal. Did the principal worked out a solution before hand? The story says the principal is 'only a determined man' - not giving up easily. He is not an expert either. Yes! He uses his position in encouraging the children - and that isn't without risk. 3) We see how problem solving proceed in a 'common ordinary' way in the beginning. Then we see the children go 'out of the box' and 'create' the 'maggot fish food' idea. This lateral thinking is an expression of 'innovation' - the new way of thinking and solving the problem. 4) We later see another improvement of the solution. By feeding the maggots, the fish get better food and grow bigger and faster. This idea evolves from the innovation. It's further removed (more indirect) from the original problem - getting rid of flies! This ingredient makes the solution 'sweeter'. Can we see or taste other ingredients in this recipe? We could make a more complete list - if we share our list! ความเห็นเพิ่มเติมที่ 135 17 ม.ค. 2552 (05:19) Ummmh, we were hoping to see some comments about a very important kind of ingredients - the software kind. Not the materials, not the process or mechanism, but the 'ethic', moral, mental qualities -- the vision, the virtue, the for good for nature and mankind ... These ingrediants make the project worth doing. make collaboration smart, make community proud and make us feel good. We all know this kind of things -- the things that money can't buy, the things that live on forever. What we see in the list of ingredients have been 'dry' and 'hard' matters or objects that we can see or touch. We rely heavily on our physical contact senses. We do use senses of smell, taste and hearing less than our eyes and skins. We hardly use our sixth sense - the deeper, subconscious, mental faculty. Many people have experienced the sensation from the working of this sensory perception channel. Most cannot even recognize that there is something different from the other 5 senses. We are in a space-time location where our common senses must be trained to higher levels of use to go forth through the edge of chaos or turbulence into controlable area. The quality of control is very much the quality of the controllers. Our controllers may have little time to focus on 'quality' - we should help them realize and produce the best quality for us. If we keep silence, they will take our gold (and run back over the China seas).
ความเห็นเพิ่มเติมที่ 136 5 ก.พ. 2552 (05:49) One important greidient in any project is the goal or what we hope to achieve. For many people 'what we get' at the end is all-or-nothing. For some, only 'what we get' matters. The ways we use to get what we want are just vehicles/tools that we use and may leave behind when the project is done. Only, religious/spiritual people worry about the ways we use to get things. Only moral people say 'we have to get the "right" things "and" we have to get them using the "right" ways'. In taking preferences against 'immoral' things and 'immoral' ways, we make the world a better place to live -- for our children and their children to live. Blah humbug! You'd hear from one side. The world is full of historical accounts of those who won by plundering, exploiting, using forces, killing friends and even fathers, ... Why do we even learn about their 'greatness' (riches and power) but not their 'immoral' deeds? Why do we worship money mongers and help them to recover from the financial crisis first when their greeds and immoral practices are the cause of our woes at the moment? What is clear is that in a collaborative project the goal must be achievable and morally agreeable by all participants of many beliefs and points of view. The course of actions must also be doable with available resources and morally satisfying for all. The results (of meeting the goal and other constraints) may come to be more (or less) than the goal are just consequences of optimization (trying to satisfy multiple concerns). This is the real challenge for communities -- not just individuals but cooperative organizations, to learn more about non-individualistic (not self-centred, mass, community) and (long lasting) goals and practices while recognizing not the 'one-off' results but the evolutionary/continuing results. There is a saying that "What we see depends on where we stand". Before we can see the ingredients for learning projects clearly, we may need to adjust our sights, our positions and our "self". Can you see what we see? SR (IP:124.183.76.39) ความเห็นเพิ่มเติมที่ 137 16 ก.พ. 2552 (17:34) We have been following the project of the principle, Aacariya Thwatchai. We have analysed various components of his project. We have come to realise that he did not act like a teacher (or an instructor in our usual sense) giving out his knowledge (or what he has known and remembered). He was not an expert in getting rid of flies (or growing fish or growing maggots in our usual sense). He was not really a (project) director giving orders and deadlines according to a preconceived or predesigned plan -- again in our usual sense. He was acting as a service provider facilitating (or assisting) a learning system of his young students, their wish, their environment and the fly problem. He provided encouragement, means to follow a course of actions, 'time' for talking, thinking, discussing and acting, and (very importantly) grounds to express "trust in others and confidence in oneself".
