Keywords: Active learning, Service learning, Public consciousness Introduction The global community in the 21 st century is a highly dynamic society wherein change always happens quickly. With advanced technologies, economic, social and political conditions around the world need to be developed faster to meet social demand. Social change creates adaptation for survival and competition. From a report by the United Nations Development Program (UNDP, 2014), Thailand aims to develop its people’s potential for material prosperity rather than psychological development. As a result, Thai people lack awareness in terms of public consciousness, which is an important component for coexistence in society. 1 Ph.D., Candidate in Educational and Technology, Faculty of Industrial Education and Technology, King Mongkut’s Institute of Technology Ladkrabang (KMITL), Thailand piyanoot.w@nrru.ac.th 2 Ed.D., Assistant.
