The paper is well written. One core point for this paper, I could not see the validity and reliability analysis. The samples were fifteen educational stakeholders, twelve teachers, and eighty-two students. It is a limited sample for paper. The validity and reliability of tests aren’t recommended to a small sample
Thank you for the question. This study divided into two phases. The phase one was conducted with qualitative research. Data were collected with a document study and a focus group discussion (FGD). The samples were an educational supervisor, two school directors, seven teachers, two community leaders, and three indigenous gurus in the NangLae area. The instrument was a questionnaire and an interview guide for group discussion. After that, we created the model and then validated by the experts using five rating scale checklist. The average score of the validity was 4.57, with very feasible.
In phase two, the samples were twelve teachers and eighty-two students. The instruments were the lists, as you have seen in the abstract. All were examined for the validity by the experts, and then the scores were reckoned for IOC.
