    In early 2017, a combined group of faculty members and students from King Mongkut's Institute of Technology Ladkrabang (KMITL), Thailand, and Ball State University (BSU), U.S.A., organized a three-week fieldwork in many communities around Si Satchanalai Historical Park. Relying on their ethnographic experiences to actively explore the livelihood in conjunction with cultural heritages and social practices of the local people, such undertakings provided a contextual basis for this research. Conceptually informed by the edifying model of Cooperative and Collaborative (C&C) pedagogy used during the 2017 KMITL-BSU collaborative efforts, the inquiries examined the workshops and field trips in Si Satchanalai district for their roles in: 1) advancing tacit knowledge of the participants on the assigned subject matters; and 2) expanding a horizon of understanding between the Thai and foreign partakers. Altogether, the upcoming discussions demonstrated the methodological applicability of the C&C approach in architectural and design education, coupled with its scholarly merits in cross-cultural learning.

    This research examines the characteristics of Mon Buddhist architecture during Thonburi and Rattanakosin periods (1767-1932) in Pakkret district. In conjunction with the oral histories acquired from the local residents, the study incorporates inquiries on historical narratives and documents, together with photographic and illustrative materials obtained from physical surveys of thirty religious structures for data collection. The textual investigations indicate that Mon people migrated to the Siamese kingdom of Ayutthaya in large number during the 18<sup>th</sup> century, and established their settlements in and around Pakkret area. Located northwest of the present day Bangkok in Nonthaburi province, Pakkret developed into an important community of the Mon diasporas, possessing a well-organized local administration that contributed to its economic prosperity. Although the Mons was assimilated into the Siamese political structure, they were able to preserve most of their traditions and customs. At the same time, the productions of their cultural artifacts encompassed many Thai elements as well, as evident from Mon Buddhist temples and monasteries in Pakkret. The stylistic analyses of these structures further reveal the following findings. First, their designs were determined by four groups of patrons: Mon laypersons, elite Mons, Thai laypersons, and elite Thais. Second, their spatial organizations illustrated various degrees of cultural contacts and exchanges between the Mons and Thais. Third, their aesthetic expressions could be categorized into three types: traditional Mon, traditional Thai, and royal eclecticism.

    This paper considers the interpretation of a local museum in Thailand using the local museum of Thai Bueng Khok Salung as a case study. Data collection was carried out from 9 September 2015 to 22 January 2018. The collected data were derived from related documents, previous studies, in-depth interviews and observations. This present research aimed to investigate the interpretation of the case study through the management of "persons, places, and things". The findings revealed that there are two major types of interpretation at the museum: the interpretation for the people in the community (that is, indigenous curators, local visitors, and local people) and the interpretation for the people outside the community (that is, general visitors and specific-purpose visitors). The results of the study indicate an appropriate and effective interpretation system for the specific community context which encourages people-both locals and foreigners-to be aware of the value of the community. Consequently, as a result of their awareness, people would increasingly cherish their community and work in collaboration with other people for the sustainable development of the community.
