And yet, there still found a weakness in numbers of authors participated to a full reflection of contents variety. In addition, the background of authors reflected on an unrealistic idealism which lacks the on-site information provided by the school teachers. 2) The content area consists of 3 major areas of Human Davelopment ＆ Family Relationship, Food and Natrition, Clothing and Textiles with ratio of 23.8%, 23.1%, and 21.9% respectively. 3) Human Development ＆ Family Relationship area ranked first with 71 times in the numbers of laboratory activities for each content area, followed by Food and Nutrition with 56 and Family Resorces ＆ Consumerism with 54.
