The purpose of this study was to determine the extent to which heads of schools discharge their instructional supervisory roles to enhance teachers’ performance in the daily teaching and learning processes. The study was carried out in the Lindi region, Tanzania Mainland in 2021. This study applied mixed methods where both qualitative and quantitative approaches were applied. The study sample comprised of teachers (N=103), heads of schools (N=57) and class masters (N=11) from 57 randomly selected public secondary schools. Data was collected through questionnaires, focus group discussions and interviews. Data were analysed using both quantitative and qualitative approaches where quantitatively researcher employed descriptive and inferential statistics and presented results with frequencies and percentages. Qualitatively a researcher employed a thematic analysis method for identifying and reporting patterns/themes in the data. The study findings revealed that heads of schools failed to discharge their instructional supervisory responsibilities, as teachers were not punctual in attending to schools. There was no regular checking of teachers’ professional records except once in the year or by school inspectors. Heads of schools did not supervise teachers on how effectively they could handle students’ assessments. Noted was also a lack of instructional resources in schools. For improvement of the provision of quality education it is recommended that heads of schools effectively discharge their duties and where their setbacks, like lack of accommodation around the school, few teachers and lack of instructional resources, they should contact relevant bodies from both government and non-government sectors work together in making friendly teaching environment. Moreover, heads of schools encourage teachers’ creativity in using improvised local resources whenever and wherever possible.","PeriodicalId":262869,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Education and Social Studies","volume":"1 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140746908","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Survey was administered for two weeks during Personal Contact Programme (PCP) for the academic session of 2023-2024. \u0000Methodology: The present research used a quantitative research method. We used the IMMS questionnaire based on the Kellers ARCS model. There are 36 items and 4 dimensions in the IMMS. On the standardized Cronbach Alpha, the overall reliability of all the scales was 0.92. The level of motivation was then assessed using some basic statistics. \u0000Results: The minimum and maximum overall motivation levels among the 77 ODL students were 2.83 and 4.97, respectively. The overall motivation levels mean score was 4.32, meaning it is very positive. Depending on independent t-test result, no significant difference was found in motivation levels among ODL students related to gender. ARCS model indicates that the motivation level of students under ODL mode of study is in a high category range (4.00-5.00) with an average value of 4.32. \u0000Conclusion: The success and effectiveness of the ODL system largely depends on self-learning materials. The learning material in open and distance learning should promote autonomy, motivation, and self-regulated learning while fostering a sense of community and belonging despite physical separation. It is recommended that the ODL professionals should offer more engaging teaching-learning environment that increases ODL students’ competence, giving ODL students more opportunities to learn independently, and involve them in planning learning activities that might enhance their motivation level.","PeriodicalId":262869,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Education and Social Studies","volume":"16 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140785124","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Utilizing a non-experimental quantitative research design employing the correlational method, the study surveyed 133 teachers in public elementary schools through universal sampling. Data analysis included mean calculation, Pearson correlation coefficient, and regression analysis. The findings revealed that public elementary school teachers exhibit high levels of groundbreaking teaching practices, particularly in the areas of graphic organizers, classroom interactions, objectivity, and creativity, which the teachers frequently manifest. Additionally, the classroom appraisal structure of teachers, encompassing self-assessment, student academic progress, instruction, and feedback, was found to be moderate and sometimes practiced by teachers. Furthermore, a significant relationship was observed between groundbreaking teaching practices and the classroom appraisal structure of teachers in public schools. The study also highlighted that the domains of groundbreaking teaching practices significantly influence the classroom appraisal structure of teachers in public schools. These results underscore the importance of enhancing current groundbreaking teaching practices and classroom appraisal structures while acknowledging the expertise of teachers in formal observation and their contribution to distinguished instruction.","PeriodicalId":262869,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Education and Social Studies","volume":"10 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140775316","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Instruments for data collection were an interview guide, an observation guide and a questionnaire. Validity of instruments was guaranteed with the help of subject and language experts. Reliability was guaranteed by the use of Cronbach’s alpha and a value of .83 was attained. The data collection process was achieved using both direct delivery and electronic methods (Google Forms and Phone calls). Response rate for the questionnaire was 92.16% and for the interviews, 80%.

Challenges witnessed in relation to digital skills of library users and staff include technophobia, software, poor digital skills, and limited access to digital tools and insufficient equipment. The libraries under study made efforts to manage challenges through: networking, training, adopting new software and machines, and IT staff. These challenges therefore served as a barrier to the effective use of academic libraries. \u0000Conclusion: The study concludes that digital skills is a significant predictor of use of academic libraries in crises periods and if such challenges identified are not properly addressed, libraries are likely to register lower rates of patrons’ use and satisfaction.","PeriodicalId":262869,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Education and Social Studies","volume":"47 19","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140082702","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The recommendations of an expert committee led by Dr. Kasturirangan, the former chairman of the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO), served as the foundation for the New Education Policy.It takes the place of the earlier 1986 National Policy on Education. The policy aims to establish an education system that is deeply ingrained in Indian culture and immediately contributes to the country's transformation by offering top-notch education to all, positioning India as a global leader in knowledge. \u0000This paper mainly focuses on NEP 2020 and evaluation system in secondary level. This paper also outlines the salient features of NEP and how they affect the existing education system. \u0000Education is a concurrent subject, so for the successful implementation of the new education policy the state and the Centre have to come forward accordingly.
