Implementation of administrative skills by secondary school principals plays an inevitable role towards the attainment of educational goals and objectives. This study investigated principals' administrative skills implementation in public senior secondary schools in Ilorin Metropolis of Kwara State on the indicators of principals’ financial and physical facilities maintenance and interpersonal relationship skills. The study adopted a descriptive survey. One hundred teachers were randomly selected from public senior secondary schools in Ilorin Metropolis as a sample. The researcher instrument titled Assessment of Principals’ Administrative Skills Questionnaire (APASQ) was used for data collection. Two research questions were raised and answered to guide the conduct of the study. Descriptive statistics were used to answer the research questions raised. Findings showed that 28.8% constituted the majority of the respondents who agreed that principals had financial skills in Ilorin Metropolis. Results indicated that 45.6% constituted the majority of the respondents who strongly agreed that principals had physical facilities maintenance skills. It was shown that 42% constituted the majority of the respondents who strongly agreed that their principals had interpersonal relationship skills. Findings revealed that 68% constituted the majority who agreed that the level of principals’ administrative skills in public senior secondary schools in Ilorin Metropolis was high. It was recommended among others that principals endeavour to keep a high level of professional spirit and good moral standards in the schools to adopt their administrative skills to sustain a good working environment for teachers and other staff in their schools.

This study investigated enhancing pedagogical strategies through technology integration in basic teacher education programs. It sheds light on its significant influence on both educational management and instructional approaches. The investigation centred on experiences within Ghana's College of Education (CoE), contributing insights that align with the objectives of Sustainable Development Goal 4. A mixed-method approach was employed, integrating both quantitative and qualitative methods. The participants of the study consisted of 485 participants (469 tutors and 16 principals) selected from sixteen colleges by using cluster and simple random sampling techniques. Quantitative data were gathered by employing a structured questionnaire, while qualitative data were acquired through semi-structured interviews. The quantitative data underwent analysis using both descriptive and inferential statistics, while the qualitative data were subjected to an inductive analysis approach. The results revealed the noteworthy influence of age, gender, higher qualifications, and professional experience of principals and instructors on technology integration in education. Furthermore, key indicators such as smartphone usage and Microsoft Office 365 tools were found to be insufficient for facilitating technology integration. This inadequacy was attributed to managerial challenges like infrastructural limitations and resistance to change. It was recommended that the Ministry of Education should institute regular in-service training initiatives on technology integration. This step will empower the staff at CoE with the requisite knowledge and competencies to proficiently infuse technology in their roles.

The COVID-19 pandemic phenomenon generated inordinate strain and experiences across a wide range of sectors in Kenya, with the education segment introduced to its own set of unique challenges. Some instructors in private learning institutions joined the job seeking market once again as several schools indefinitely closed down. This often-needed reskilling and turned out to be frustrating as the job opportunities kept shrinking rapidly. This study looked at the effect of COVID-19 pandemic education disruption on emotional wellbeing of education instructors, with a focus on private schools’ teachers in Kenya. Data was collected from 367 respondents who completed a closed ended questionnaire and quantitative analysis was undertaken. The results revealed that there is a significant effect of COVID-19 pandemic education disruption on private school teachers’ emotional wellbeing. The prediction equation based on the unstandardized coefficients was statistically significant, F 1,365 = 46.035, p < 0.001 and accounted for approximately 11.2% of the variance of emotional wellbeing (R2 = 0.112, Adjusted R2 = 0.110). Therefore, hypothesis stated as COVID-19 pandemic education disruption has no significant effect on Kenyan private school teachers’ emotional wellbeing was not supported. The moderating effect of emotional and physical support did not significantly account for more variance with R2 Change = .009, p > .024. The findings supported the hypothesis that emotional and physical support does not moderate the effect of Covid-19 pandemic education disruption on Kenya private school teachers’ emotional wellbeing.

The application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in education is increasingly promising. ChatGPT as an AI-based platform that can answer all questions can be a solution for learners. This article examines the use of ChatGPT in increasing the productivity of scientific articles of Postgraduate Students of IAIN Kediri. This study used a quasi-experimental design, with the experimental group engaging in scientific article writing using ChatGPT and the control group doing it conventionally. The sample of this study was 2nd semester Postgraduate Students of Islamic Education Management Study Program IAIN Kediri. Data were collected through initial and final tests in scientific article writing. Descriptive and inferential statistical analysis was conducted to analyze the data. The results showed that the average score of the experimental group was 82.68 while the control group score was 68.83. Then the N-Gain value data of the experimental group is greater than the control group with the results of 53.30> 23.01. These results explain the significant increase in scientific article productivity in the experimental group compared to the control group. This finding consistently supports the idea that the use of ChatGPT can increase the productivity of scientific articles for students. The implications of the results for scholarly writing practice are also discussed, along with recommendations for further research.

The advancement of Information Communication and Technology (ICT) offers enormous opportunities to enhance the efficacy of learning process in all levels of education, including Early Childhood Education (ECE). However, in the light of the recent years, there have not been some concern about the issue of use of technology to assist ECE process in the context of Vietnam. Thus, this study explores Vietnamese early childhood teachers’ beliefs and practices about the use of technology to facilitate storytelling for pre-school children. A web-based survey research was adopted to scrutinize the beliefs and practices of 228 ECE teachers about digital storytelling in Can Tho Vietnam. The results demonstrated that these teachers hold high levels of beliefs that digital storytelling could be used to enhance learning. In addition, they had carried out digital storytelling activities in their learning practices. The results emphasized that several concerns must be taken by teachers, parents, and related stakeholders in using technological tools in young children’s learning environment. This study offers pedagogical insights for ECE teachers to integrate digital storytelling in their learning activities. In short, the use of technology for pre-school children can provide a lot of benefits if it is skillfully executed by both teachers and parents.

Studies in the five recent years have shown that more than half of Nigerian undergraduate students changed their study programs and career decisions. Notwithstanding this fact, lack of research addresses factors that affect the Nigerian undergraduate students made such a decision. Therefore, the present study aims to explore the influence of academic performance, family support, and interest on career decision of undergraduate students in Jigawa state Nigeria. A set of questionnaires was utilized as an instrument to collect the data from a total of 373 Nigerian undergraduate students. Drawing on correlational study using structural equation modelling approach, this study revealed that academic reason (t=3.452; β=0.191; P=0.001) and family support (t=4.554; β=0.234; P=0.000) have statistically significant correlation with career decision making of the students. On the contrary, interest was empirically proven to not have a significant relationship with the career decision making (t=0.899; β=-.056; P=0.369). Thus, it is concluded that academic reason and family support play more crucial role in determining the career decision of undergraduate students in Nigeria than their interest abilities. This study provides implication for Nigerian government and non-government organizations to massively educate parents and families so that they can encourage their children’s career paths and support their career choices.

Although studies on technology-assisted student-centered learning (henceforth TA-SCL) is enormously growing in the recent years, few researchers concern on the current state of lecturers’ beliefs and readiness to implement TA-SCL. This study aims to explore Malaysian lecturers’ attitude in terms of beliefs and readiness to carry out TA-SCL approach in university context. A survey design under the procedure of quantitative research was applied to reach the objective. This study involved 207 lecturers teaching at some universities in Kuala Lumpur Malaysia who were selected using purposive sampling technique. The data were collected using a four-point Likert scale online questionnaire, and further analyzed in the forms of descriptive statistics using SPSS program. The results demonstrated that Malaysian lecturers hold a high level of beliefs about the application of TA-SCL in their universities. The finding further revealed that they possessed significant degree of readiness to implement TA-SCL in their teaching activities. These findings leave some implications for the integration of technology for educational purpose, particularly to enhance the efficacy of student-centered learning. This study portrays clear picture of Malaysian lecturers’ current beliefs and readiness towards the TA-SCL, as well as offers fruitful insights for educational stakeholders in Malaysia to begin acknowledge this approach in university learning activities.

The deficiency of Islamic-based schools (called as Pesantren in Indonesia) in science requires adjustment. In this sector, Indonesian government is present through the implementation of the Islamic-based boarding Junior High Schools (henceforth SMP-BP) program, which was established by the Ministry of Education and Culture to equip students with intellectual, moral, and spiritual balances. However, there is still a need for constructing a framework of organizational culture to enhance the efficacy of the program. Hence, the present study delves into a framework of organizational culture for ideal performance of and the efficacy of education process in Pesantren. This study was based in two SMP-BPs in Aceh, a province of Indonesia (e.g. Al Mujaddid and Darul Amin), and was conducted by following the procedure of descriptive research under qualitative design. The required data were gathered using interviews from a total of 12 informants consisting of school principal, coordinator of the program, and teachers. The data were further analyzed by following Miles and Huberman’s stages of qualitative data analysis comprising coding, presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results revealed that the construction of organizational culture for an ideal performance of Pesantren in Indonesia encompassed four key dimensions, i.e. (1) establishing organizational behavior standards, (2) increasing the stability of organization’s social system, (3) revitalizing school management, and (4) developing human resources. This study contributes to equipping Pesantren stakeholders with awareness and willingness to improve the efficacy of Islamic-based school performance in Indonesia. Future research is directed to efforts of fostering dynamic organization culture and school management both cultural and philosophical education.
