This research was conducted by combination of qualitative and quantitative methods. There were two phases namely developing a pilot project and conducting experimental testing. In first phase, an initial comprehensive learning framework was developed by combining and integrating Jigsaw, Inquiry-Based Learning, and Knowledge Sharing as a framework named Inquiry-Based Expertise Sharing (IBES). In the second phase, the revised IBES was experimentally tested in the same course but different students using quasi-experiment method and the matching only pre-test post-test control group design. To examine the strength of IBES, main data was collected namely students’ achievement and perception. Students’ achievement was measured by the multiple choices questions sheet, while students’ perception data was gathered by the questionnaire sheet. The result shows that students’ achievement mean score in experimental group was 75.7 which is higher than control group that its mean score was 58.73. Students’ perception result showed that more than 70% students have positive responses toward the IBES in all aspects including curiosity, inquiry skills, teamwork attitudes, collaborations, interdependence, and communication skills. The challenges of IBES are the diversity of students’ background, the lack of curiosity, the lack of prior knowledge, the lack of confidence, and the lack of communication skills. Some recommendations for the effectiveness of implementation of IBES will be given.","PeriodicalId":37473,"journal":{"name":"Malaysian Online Journal of Educational Management","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49281725","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 was carried out to investigate the issues obstructing the effectiveness of public universities in Nigeria. The conceptual framework was adapted from the European Foundation for Quality Management Excellence model (EFQM). This study adopted a generic qualitative design to collect data through semi-structured interviews from eight participants, including the deputy vice-chancellor, deans, head of departments, and lecturers that were purposively selected. Data collected were analysed using thematic analysis with Nvivo (version 10). The findings of the study revealed that leadership, academic and administrative issues, contextual issues and funding are the major factors affecting the effectiveness of public universities in Nigeria. Therefore, for a university in Nigeria to be viewed as a hub of developing nations that strive to meet the expectation of the society, the identified hindrances must be thoroughly interrogated and resolved.","PeriodicalId":37473,"journal":{"name":"Malaysian Online Journal of Educational Management","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45741150","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}

Employers value employability skills because they are linked to how employees get along with co-workers and customers, job performance, and career success of the employee. Hence personal qualities and employability competencies are considered as one of the essential components for an individual’s career development. This study aims to understand the perceptual gap among the corporate world, business school academics and business school students. This study is quantitative in nature and primary data was collected through survey method. The primary data was collected from 377 Master of Business Administration (MBA) students, 276 Business School faculties and 98 managers representing 100 different companies in Bangalore, India. Three different questionnaires were prepared for three groups. All three sets of respondents were asked to rate their perception towards the requirement of personal qualities and skill/competencies required at the workplace in an entrylevel job. The study highlights that there is a significant difference in the perception of students, business school faculty and managers towards listed personal qualities and competencies. These perceptual differences result in different types of costs to the company in terms of time, money and energy. The results will help the business schools to develop an innovative business curriculum that can fill the current industry needs.","PeriodicalId":37473,"journal":{"name":"Malaysian Online Journal of Educational Management","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49094556","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 purpose of this study is to obtain information about the influence of interpersonal communication, work environment, and locus of control on job satisfaction. This research involved public elementary teachers in Tigapanah District, North Sumatera, Indonesia. The total sample of 136 teachers were selected using the Kreijcie and Morgan Table, while proportional random sampling was used to determine the selected data. To test the hypothesis, the data was analysed by using path analysis after fulfilling the analysis requirements test, namely the Normality and Linearity test. The research findings show that teachers’ job satisfaction was directly influenced by interpersonal communication, work environment and locus of control. Based on these findings, it can be concluded that any change or variation that occurs in Job Satisfaction is influenced by interpersonal communication, work environment and locus of control. From the findings on the three variables, it turns out that the locus of control influences more in increasing job satisfaction, followed by work environment and interpersonal communication. Therefore, in managing job satisfaction of the teachers, interpersonal communication, work environment and locus of control must be included in the strategic planning of human resource development in Public Elementary School Teachers’ in Tigapanah District, while other variables need to be taken into account by future research on job satisfaction","PeriodicalId":37473,"journal":{"name":"Malaysian Online Journal of Educational Management","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44374242","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}

Although perceived price was found not to have an impact on emotional value, it has a significant and positive effect on perceived service quality. Moreover, the study also reveals that perceived service quality has a significant and negative influence on perceived performance risk. These findings imply that managers of the high-quality program at universities should pay attention to improving the perception of service quality in order to enhance emotional value.","PeriodicalId":37473,"journal":{"name":"Malaysian Online Journal of Educational Management","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47141795","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}

In addition, the question of if school associated attributes contribute to school settings has become a hot cake in the present context. Amidst this, the study aims to examine the job satisfaction of school teachers across their school related attributes. For achieving this purpose, a cross-sectional survey was employed embracing post-positivist paradigm among 345 school teachers from Dhading district, Nepal who were the respondents of this study. The data were collected through questionnaire, analysed with parametric test, and encompassed social exchange theory for discussing the findings of this study. From the study, it was revealed that job satisfaction of teachers is influenced by the school type, and service periods. In addition, the job nature and educational qualification was also found to be contributing to add pleasure in job considering pay and work environment respectively. Furthermore, the school related attributes were discovered to be assisted by social exchange relations and motivated the teachers towards job satisfaction. Finally, the study indicates that the teachers who are satisfied in their jobs demonstrate the high level of organizational citizenship behaviour, job performance, commitment, and retention in school. As a result, it ultimately benefits the school by increasing their work productivity and academic success.","PeriodicalId":37473,"journal":{"name":"Malaysian Online Journal of Educational Management","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49145009","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}
