In the context of education, teachers perpetually grapple with an extensive array of daily responsibilities. This study was undertaken with the objective of evaluating the impact of teachers' multitasking on the overall quality of performance within identified public elementary schools. In this research quantitative method was employed, involving school leaders and teachers from three specific schools, and a multifaceted approach was employed. The sampling strategy included purposeful sampling to select school’s representative of the population, employing stratified sampling for diversity, and ensuring randomness where needed. The study culminated in an integration of both data types, yielding a comprehensive understanding of the research questions. Ethical considerations, informed consent, and confidentiality were maintained throughout the research process, ensuring the validity and reliability of the findings. The study's findings reveal that public-school teachers are heavily burdened with multitasking responsibilities, negatively affecting their teaching performance and leading to subpar academic outcomes. To address this issue, the researcher strongly recommends the implementation, rigorous assessment, and continuous monitoring of a training program. In essence, this study highlights the detrimental impact of multitasking on teaching performance in public elementary schools and emphasizes the urgent need for improvement through a structured training program aimed at enhancing the educational experience for teachers and students alike.","PeriodicalId":37226,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Education and Practice","volume":"72 17","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139390096","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}

A quasi-experimental design was adopted for this study. The population comprised 2,350 Secondary School (SSII) chemistry students drawn from the Calabar Education Zone, Nigeria, from which a sample of 240 students was identified through proportionate stratified random and judgmental sampling techniques. The data was collected through an instrument called ‘’chemistry achievement test’’ (CAT). Two research hypotheses were stated to direct the study. Data obtained were analyzed using the analysis of Covariance and Multiple Classifications Analysis. Results indicated that learners tutored with 5Es instructional strategy enhanced academic achievement more than those tutored using the conventional method. However, students' gender did not make any impact on their achievement when tutored with 5Es instructional strategy and lecture method. It was concluded that the utilization of inquiring and critical thinking skills when students were tutored using the 5ES instructional strategy would be responsible for their high achievement. It was recommended that the introduction of the 5Es instructional strategy should be implemented from the basic primary science to build the younger scientist minds into more creative, goal-oriented, problem-solving individuals.","PeriodicalId":37226,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Education and Practice","volume":"54 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138999349","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 study was experimental in nature, the sample consisted of 325 respondents who had undergone special trainings with acmeological approach and who had participated in psycho-diagnostic research carried out before and after the training, as well as three months after the start of the experiment. The methods embraced testing by the questionnaires for studying meaningful life orientations, self-relationship, testing for “assessment of self-fulfillment” and “readiness to self-development”, and the indicator of self-change potential. The findings were compared with relevant indicators and their accuracy was confirmed via the students’ t-test. In the control group, participants expressed a desire to understand themselves but felt unable to facilitate self-improvement. Conversely, students in the experimental group expressed a desire to understand themselves and possessed the ability to promote self-improvement. The majority of students favored the acmeological approach for enhancing motivation and cultivating a highly professional persona. Three months post-experiment, students in the experimental group exhibited a greater tendency towards self-change. The results of the experiment have shown the effectiveness of acmeological approach for developing future teachers professionally, and the experimental verification of its impact on students' self-awareness, meaningful life orientations, ability to self-change, and their potential for high levels of teacher professionalism.","PeriodicalId":37226,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Education and Practice","volume":"72 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139008187","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}

Different management structures, including hierarchical, horizontal, and team-based were explored for their contributions to students' learning opportunities. A quantitative approach was employed, analyzing data from 50 full-time Chinese secondary school teachers. The findings were interpreted using relevant statistical methods to establish the relationship between management structures and teacher performance. The study reveals that the most effective and recommended management structure involves amalgamating the strengths inherent in these different structures to create a hybrid system that is responsive to the needs of teachers. This hybrid approach is shown to have a positive impact on teacher performance. The findings of this research hold significant practical implications. Understanding the effects of management structure empowers policymakers and educational leaders to design and implement effective management strategies that support and empower teachers. This, in turn, can lead to enhanced teacher performance, improved education quality, increased job satisfaction, and motivation among educators, ultimately resulting in better student outcomes. The study thus highlights the Chinese government's emphasis on education and serves as a reference for policy adjustments to improve management efficiency.","PeriodicalId":37226,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Education and Practice","volume":"44 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138981899","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}

This study investigated the socio-demographic factors such as age, gender, years of service, educational attainment, location of school, and type of school, that influenced Filipino school leaders' digital leadership. A cross-sectional survey was conducted with 386 school leaders, selected through convenience sampling technique. The data was collected through an invitation link to a questionnaire survey distributed through various social media platforms. Descriptive data using frequency and percentage, and independent t-test and one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) were employed to examine the variables of the study. The study found that younger male leaders working in urban or private schools, or those who were relatively new in their leadership roles, with higher educational qualifications tend to have higher levels of digital leadership. This meant that socio-demographic factors of school leaders can influence their digital leadership. The study also emphasizes the critical need for in-depth research into the nature and implications of digital leadership in the Philippine educational landscape, focusing on how socio-demographic factors influenced the adoption of digital leadership skills. The study's findings implied that government and educational institutions need to take a more proactive role in supporting the development of digital leadership skills among all school leaders, regardless of their socio-demographic backgrounds. This includes providing training and support, and creating a more supportive environment for digital leadership.","PeriodicalId":37226,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Education and Practice","volume":"140 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138598745","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 challenges and benefits reflected by students regarding online education were also discussed in this study by applying thematic analysis through a mixed-method approach. Further, to investigate the factors that intrinsically motivated the learners, Self-Determination Theory was employed as a theoretical framework. A total number of 80 students from different private universities, both male and female, participated in this study. Findings revealed that most of the learners of online classes faced challenges in several issues, such as poor technology and internet facilities, financial constraints, unsuitable home environments, deterioration of physical and mental health, and insufficient feedback. Besides, this study discovered that despite the challenges, learners were intrinsically motivated to continue learning during the lockdown as competence, relatedness and autonomy were ensured. These findings would be essential guidelines and implications for educators and university authorities of private universities for making better policy choices for online classes in the future.","PeriodicalId":37226,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Education and Practice","volume":"35 22","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138602643","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}
