Kaleidoscope: A collection of Lived Movements
by Ekta Rana (Author, Editor) Format: Kindle Edition
Kaleidoscope: A Collection of Lived Movements brings together a series of personal memoirs written from moments that quietly shaped young lives. These are not grand heroic stories, but intimate records of fear, courage, family, friendship, loss, belonging, and self-discovery. Each narrative begins from an ordinary experience: a classroom, a festival, a family meal, a journey, a pet, a mistake, or a difficult night, and gradually opens into a deeper lesson about life.
Like a kaleidoscope, the book gathers many voices, colours, emotions, and memories. Every story turns differently, yet together they form a shared pattern of growth. The writers look back at moments when they felt uncertain, afraid, lonely, or overwhelmed, and show how those moments became sources of strength, confidence, and understanding.
This collection celebrates lived experience as a form of learning. It reminds readers that identity is not formed only through major achievements, but also through small acts of kindness, quiet bravery, family bonds, painful goodbyes, and the courage to continue.
8.4 Data are provided to show directly the achievement of the programme outcomes, which are established and monitored.
Operational Result
Based on the feedback from our various stakeholders, we can directly demonstrate the achievement of our program outcomes, which are both established and consistently monitored. Our students’ performance provides clear evidence of this success across multiple dimensions.
High Score on Standard English Tests (TOEIC) .Firstly, our students consistently achieve high scores on the TOEIC (Test of English for International Communication). This benchmark not only underscores their proficiency in English but also demonstrates their readiness to engage in global communication and professional environments.
Government Exam for Assistant Teacher Position Performance. Secondly, our students excel in government exams, frequently topping these assessments. This achievement reflects their comprehensive understanding of the subject matter and their ability to apply their knowledge effectively in standardized testing scenarios. It is a testament to the rigorous academic preparation and support provided by our program.
Awards & Recognition from local and International Organization
Additionally, our students have secured placements in several prestigious local and international contests. These accomplishments span various disciplines and highlight their ability to compete at high levels, demonstrating their critical thinking, creativity, and problem-solving skills. Such placements are a clear indication that our students are not only absorbing information but are also able to apply their learning in diverse and challenging contexts.
These indicators—high TOEIC scores, top performance in government exams, and success in local and international contests—collectively demonstrate that our program learning outcomes are being achieved. This feedback from our stakeholders confirms that our educational strategies are effective and that our graduates are well-prepared for both local and international opportunities. Our continuous monitoring and assessment processes ensure that we maintain and improve the quality of education we provide, ultimately contributing to the ongoing success and recognition of our students and our program.

Summary:
The Bachelor of Education in Mathematics (BEDM) programme at St. Teresa International University is at a foundational stage. With an intake of only 2 students in the 2025-2026 academic year against a capacity of 30, the primary challenge is recruitment and visibility. While outcome data for this new cohort is pending, the programme benefits from a very high academic staff satisfaction rate (91%), which is a strong foundation for quality delivery.
The programme is positioned within a highly competitive landscape. Thai public universities (e.g., Chulalongkorn, Thammasat, Kasetsart) typically enjoy high enrolment and have well-established employer networks. Indian universities produce a high volume of graduates, with a focus on pedagogical theory. Top international benchmarks, particularly in the UK and Finland, emphasize research-led teaching, strong internationalization, and early integration of students into school placements.
Strategic Focus for 2025-2026:
Given the unique position of having only 2 students, the programme has a rare opportunity to pilot a highly personalized, high-impact educational model. The immediate focus should be on retention and demonstrating exceptional value to attract the next cohort.
Recommendations for Improvement:
- Intensive Recruitment & Marketing: Develop a targeted marketing campaign highlighting the benefits of a small cohort (personalized attention, strong faculty-student ratio), scholarship opportunities, and unique selling points (e.g., international exposure, specialized math pedagogy). Engage with high schools directly.
- Design a “Flagship” Student Experience: For the two admitted students, create a personalized enriched curriculum. This could include a guaranteed international virtual collaboration project, a paid teaching assistantship, or a mentored research project. This will serve as a powerful case study for future recruitment.
- Build International Bridges: Initiate a “Collaborative Online International Learning” (COIL) project with a partner university in Japan, Europe, or ASEAN. This immediately addresses the 0% international participation rate and provides a global experience for the students without requiring travel.
- Leverage Staff Satisfaction for Research Output: Utilize the highly satisfied academic staff to form a focused research cluster in Mathematics Education. Set a target for one joint publication between staff and the students (as co-authors) within the next two years. This builds research capacity and student engagement simultaneously.
- Develop an Industry Advisory Board: Even with a small cohort, establish a board comprising heads of mathematics departments from local international and reputable Thai schools. This will build employer relationships early, inform curriculum design, and create a pipeline for future internships and jobs.
