Abstract

This article aimed to analyze the literature related to Context-based Learning (CBL). The contexts used in CBL in this study were the Chiang Khong Special Economic Zone (in Chiang Rai province located in the Northern region of Thailand) and Thailand 4.0. The authors reviewed and analyzed the literature related to CBL, Chiang Khong Special Economic Zone and Thailand 4.0 and then synthesized seven teaching steps: 1) Set a learning context for “Stability, Wealth and Sustainability”, 2) Understand context, 3) Identify a problem in the targeted context, 4) Construct knowledge through the practice of Principles of the Sufficiency Economy Philosophy, 5) Share knowledge and link with environmental conservation, 6) Conclude and reflect, and 7) Transfer knowledge to new context. At the end, the authors concretely presented the example of lesson plan using the CBL emphasizing Chiang Khong Special Economic Zone and Thailand 4.0 to teach English for Grade 4 students in order to help them develop their communication skills.
