The study examined the relationship between Educational Philosophical Orientation and the Organizational practices of Secondary Mathematics teachers. Using a descriptive-correlational quantitative design, the study involved 150 secondary mathematics teachers and investigated how educational philosophical orientations are associated with teachers’ organizational practices. Findings revealed that Pragmatism obtained the highest mean score (M = 3.852) indicating that the teacher generally valued practical, experiential and problem-solving approaches in mathematics instruction. However, regression results show that Pragmatism did not significantly predict their actual practices. Instead, Idealism emerged as a significant positive predictor of Planning and Lesson Preparation( b = 0.343, p<.001), Collaboration with Colleagues and School Personnel ( b = 0.206, p = 0.044) and Professional Responsibility ( b = 0.374, p<.001). Realism was a significant predictor of Classroom Organization and Management ( b = 0.216, p = .038), and Existentialism did not significantly predict any of the Organizational Practice Dimensions. These findings indicate that the relationship between educational philosophical orientation and teachers’ organizational practice is domain specific rather than uniform across professional activities. The higher endorsement of Pragmatism alongside its lack of significant unique predictive contribution also suggests that teachers espoused philosophical preferences do not necessarily correspond directly to their professional practices. Overall, the finding highlights the value of integrating philosophical reflection with practical and contextual consideration in teacher education and professional development, particularly in strengthening teachers’ awareness of how educational beliefs relate to their professional practice.
School organizational culture in Islamic education requires ethical foundations that can support teachers' professional responsibility without neglecting their well-being. This article develops an analytical framework for examining the internalization of amanah (trustworthiness and accountability) and ihsan (excellence and care) in relation to teachers' organizational commitment at SDIT Ar-Raihan, Pagar Alam, Indonesia. A qualitative single-case study is proposed, involving purposively selected school leaders, teachers, and educational staff, with semi-structured interviews, nonparticipant observations, document analysis, and reflexive thematic analysis. A synthesis of recent scholarship indicates that value-based culture may influence affective and normative commitment through trustworthy leadership, professional meaning, organizational justice, and collegial support; continuance commitment also depends on employment conditions. These relationships are presented as propositions requiring field verification, not as empirical findings from the school. The framework offers an ethically grounded direction for examining teacher commitment and improving Islamic school management.
This study examined the classroom and instructional management practices of new and experienced teachers and their relationship with students’ learning engagement in selected public secondary schools in Cortes District, Division of Bohol, during School Year 2026–2027. Anchored in the Classroom Management Scripts Model, Instructional Clarity Framework, Multidimensional Student Engagement Framework, and Huberman’s Teacher Career Cycle, the study employed a quantitative comparative-correlational research design. Respondents comprised 15 new teachers, 46 experienced teachers, and 278 students, totaling 339 participants. Data were gathered using a researcher-modified, validated, and pilot-tested questionnaire and analyzed through descriptive statistics, Pearson product–moment correlation, and independent-samples t-tests. Results revealed consistently high classroom and instructional management practices among both teacher groups, with no statistically significant differences. Classroom management and instructional management exhibited a strong positive relationship (r = 0.724, p < 0.001), whereas neither classroom management (r = 0.040, p = 0.760) nor instructional management (r = −0.062, p = 0.635) was significantly associated with students’ overall learning engagement. Students taught by new teachers demonstrated significantly higher overall and emotional engagement (p = 0.017), while behavioral and cognitive engagement showed no significant differences. The study concluded that teaching experience alone does not determine management effectiveness and that favorable management practices do not necessarily correspond to higher student engagement. A school-based professional development program emphasizing mentoring, collaborative lesson planning, peer observation, and instructional improvement was proposed. The study supports Sustainable Development Goal 4 (Quality Education) by promoting effective teaching, inclusive learning environments, and continuous professional growth. Its educational and institutional sustainability contribution lies in providing localized evidence to guide sustained professional development and improvements in students’ learning experiences.
This study aims to analyze the learning problems experienced by Grade VIII students at UPTD SMPN 16 Kupang based on students’ experiences and teachers’ perspectives. The study employed a descriptive qualitative approach, using interviews with 16 informants consisting of one homeroom teacher, three subject teachers, and 12 Grade VIII students. The data were analyzed thematically by grouping responses into recurring patterns relevant to the research focus. The findings derived from the available informant accounts revealed several issues, namely students’ limited openness in communicating their difficulties, inconsistent classroom participation, procrastination in completing assignments, and family responsibilities that reduce the time and energy available for learning. Some students reported being distracted by recreational activities, while others experienced fatigue after helping their parents at home. These findings indicate that learning problems need to be understood by considering academic factors, study habits, communication, and family context. Guidance and counseling services can support the identification of students’ needs and the development of effective learning strategies and time management skills.
The purpose of this research is to analyze the economic self-management strategies used by students of the Faculty of Business Sciences of the Technical University of Machala during their academic training; Interest in this study arose from the need to understand how students face economic difficulties that arise in their training. A mixed approach was applied and a survey was used on a representative sample of 367 students, identifying the main source of income for a part of the student population, evidencing alternatives to sustain their expenses and reduce their economic dependence. The most used strategies were observed when they go through difficult situations and if the income is sufficient to cover their expenses, reflecting the existence of limitations and conditioning the way of organizing their resources and decision making. Likewise, it was identified that students usually perceive an impact. in their academic performance. The results allowed us to understand the economic dynamics experienced by university students and provide information for the design of institutional strategies that contribute to strengthening permanence, well-being and academic success.
The professional reintegration of veterans is a major challenge for Ukraine’s post-war recovery and requires vocational education aligned with labour market needs. The tourism and hospitality industry offers employment opportunities, but transition to civilian work requires sector-specific knowledge, digital competence, communication, teamwork, decision-making and adaptability. The study aims to develop and theoretically substantiate a conceptual model for integrating interactive digital learning technologies into veterans’ vocational education for employment in the tourism and hospitality industry. The methodology combines secondary analysis of a sociological survey conducted by the Ukrainian Veterans Fund and the Rating Sociological Group in December 2025 among 240 respondents, competency mapping and a systematic literature review. The analysis identified transferable military competencies, including discipline, teamwork under pressure, logistical planning and decision-making in dynamic situations. It also revealed gaps in customer orientation, digital literacy and personalised service. The proposed model links veterans’ competencies and educational needs with labour market requirements through interactive technologies, including problem-based, case-based, simulation-based and scenario-based learning, microlearning, the flipped classroom, Learning Management Systems, Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality and Geographic Information Systems. The model provides a framework for translating military experience into civilian professional competencies and supports vocational programmes for veterans seeking employment in the tourism and hospitality industry. Its application may strengthen employability, facilitate social reintegration and contribute to Ukraine’s post-war recovery. Further research should validate the model through implementation and evaluation.
Generation Alpha (born 2010-2024) and Generation Beta (born 2025-2039) represent an unprecedented developmental archetype defined by total digital integration and ubiquitous artificial intelligence (AI). This empirical study evaluated specialized psychological adaptation mechanisms, parenting models, and mental health intervention frameworks across these cohorts. Utilizing a mixed-methods design, quantitative data were gathered from $N = 300$ parents (Gen Alpha parents and expectant/early Gen Beta parents) using the Modified Parental Stress Scale (PSS) and Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL), supplemented by qualitative interviews with $N = 20$ pediatric mental health experts. Independent samples $t$-tests confirmed that Gen Alpha/Beta display significantly higher digital dependency anxiety ($M = 38.60, p < .001$) alongside superior visual-spatial intelligence ($M = 44.10, p < .001$) relative to normative baselines. Crucially, a proactive "Digital Integration" co-navigation parenting framework yielded significantly lower parental stress ($M = 29.50$) compared to rigid "Digital Detox" restriction models ($M = 42.80, p < .001$). A preventive clinical framework focusing on Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) and cognitive impulse management is proposed.
Improving educational quality requires human resource (HR) management that supports teachers’ continuous professional development and adaptation to global demands. This study aims to describe the management of educational HR transformation toward global quality at SMP Muhammadiyah 15 Surabaya and identify its supporting and inhibiting factors. A qualitative approach was employed, with data collected through non-participant observation, interviews, and documentation. Informants were selected through purposive sampling and included the vice principal, the vice principal for curriculum, two teachers, and two students. Data were analyzed through data reduction, data display, conclusion drawing, and verification. The findings indicate that HR transformation is managed through planning, organizing, implementation, supervision, and evaluation. Development programs include internal and external training, a teacher learning community, weekly learning reflection, monthly coaching, and academic supervision. Supporting factors include a collaborative culture, regular professional guidance, and school support. Inhibiting factors comprise limited time, insufficient openness in reflection, short coaching sessions, delayed follow-up, and some teachers’ extrinsic motivation. These findings provide contextual insights into school-level HR management but do not establish program effectiveness in improving student learning outcomes or achieving global quality standards.

This paper presents a practice‑driven software engineering course model that centers the curriculum on multi‑term, client‑partnered projects to cultivate real‑world design, teamwork, and delivery skills at undergraduate scale. The approach combines a shared web application stack, agile project management with iterative demos and retrospectives, and remote mentorship from industry alumni to provide authentic exposure to legacy code, stakeholder communication, and production‑like workflows. Operational experiences (“war stories”) surface recurring risks credential leakage, privacy missteps, shifting stakeholder expectations, and deployment hurdles and translate them into actionable process controls such as time‑boxing, version‑control discipline, and early environment planning. Reported outcomes highlight growth in technical execution and soft skills, increased student ownership through community impact, and a repeatable structure that decouples principles from practicum to support continuity across semesters. The paper concludes with adoption guidance on partner selection, mentor recruitment, and technology standardization to help programs embed authentic, sustainable project work as a centerpiece of software engineering education.
Although Kurikulum Merdeka promotes flexible, student-centered learning, the implementation of Natural and Social Sciences (IPAS) instruction in elementary schools continues to face various challenges. This study aimed to describe the challenges in implementing IPAS instruction under Kurikulum Merdeka in Grade V at SD Negeri 005 Desa Baru, Kampar Regency. The study employed a descriptive qualitative approach involving two fifth-grade teachers and six purposively selected students. Three students had IPAS scores above 75, and three had scores below 75. Data were collected through nonparticipant observation, structured interviews, and documentation and analyzed through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. Data trustworthiness was assessed through triangulation of sources and data collection techniques. The findings identified three domains of challenges related to students, teachers, and learning assessment. Student-related challenges were the most prominent, including differences in understanding, declining attention after approximately 15–20 minutes of lecturing, interest that depended on the type of activity, uneven participation, dependence on external motivation, inconsistent task management, and varying levels of learning readiness. Teacher-related challenges included the breadth of integrated science and social studies content and classroom management during group activities. Assessment involved oral quizzes and student worksheets, supplemented by remedial instruction and enrichment. Achievement scores ranged from 60 to 96, with a mastery threshold of 75. These findings underscore the need for differentiated instruction, concrete and contextually relevant instructional media, clearly assigned group roles, time management, and the use of assessment results to improve instruction. This study provides a contextual account of challenges in IPAS instruction and the need to adapt fifth-grade teaching practices. Its restriction to one school and a focused observation period highlights the need for further research covering more lessons and IPAS topics.
The stress facing the educational leadership as school principals are required to deal with administrative management, supervision of staff, academic performance and institutional development. There are specific issues that may affect female principals in addition to the other factors listed above: Interpersonal demands, competing professional demands, and work–life balance. Problem-Focused Coping Strategies (PFCS) may be a way to cope with stress by identifying the sources of stress, planning and problem solving, prioritizing and making positive decisions. The present study investigated the correlation between PFCS and Stress Management (SM) of female school principals. The method of quantitative research was employed and data was gathered from 74 principals (females). Analysis of the correlation showed a weak negative correlation between PFCS and SM (r = -.117). The regression model accounted for about 1.4% of the variability in SM (R2 = .014). The overall regression model was not significant (F (1,72) = 1.005, p = .319). The regression coefficient for PFCS was also negative and not significantly different from 0 (B = -.254, β = -.117, p = .319). The results of this study suggest that there was no statistically significant predictive relationship found between the female principals who participated in the study and PFCS and SM. The results do not show that problem-focused coping is not effective, however; it does imply that it may be insufficient to account for variations in stress management in this sample. The results indicate that there is a need to explore further individual and organizational factors, such as workload, institutional support, leadership experience, resources, and work–life balance. More research is needed using larger samples, measuring instruments that have been established and validated, and using longitudinal or intervention designs to investigate the role of problem-focused coping in stress management. Other professional development programs that could be beneficial for educational authorities include those related to problem solving, time management, delegation, and conflict resolution. The research brings insights from the sphere of stress amongst female educational leaders to the discussion and provides some insights for future research directions.
Background: Psychological stress is a common issue among faculty members due to increasing academic, administrative, and professional responsibilities. Prolonged stress negatively affect mental well-being, job satisfaction, and work performance. Therefore, assessing the level of psychological stress among faculty members is essential for identifying the need for stress-management strategies. This study aimed to evaluate the level of psychological stress among faculty members of colleges and universities. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 101 faculty members from colleges and universities. Participants were recruited using a convenience sampling technique. Data were collected through structured online questionnaire consisting of demographic information and the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS). Descriptive statistics, including frequencies and percentages, were used for data analysis. Results: A total of 101 faculty members participated in the study. The majority of participants were above 30 years of age (46%), female (64%), worked 40-50 hours per week (41%), and possessed a master's degree (68%). Assessment of stress levels using the perceived stress scale revealed 91% of participants experienced moderate stress, 6% experienced low stress, and 3% experienced high stress. Most respondents reported experiencing stress-related feelings such as being upset unexpectedly, inability to control important things in life, nervousness, and difficulty coping "sometimes," indicating a moderate level of perceived psychological stress. Conclusions: The findings indicate that psychological stress is prevalent among faculty members of colleges and universities, with moderate stress being the most commonly reported level. These results highlight need for effective stress-management interventions and workplace wellness programs to promote psychological well-being among faculty members.
Stress arising from academic, professional and financial demands is common among students and young professionals, and the coping methods within easiest reach, such as listening to music, do not always suffice. This paper presents a survey-driven design for a virtual reality (VR) gadget that combines selectable immersive natural environments, environment-matched sound therapy and heart-rate biofeedback for short relaxation sessions. An online questionnaire completed by 24 respondents, mostly college students, supplies the user requirements. Among those who answer the relevant items, 65.2% report daily stress, 73.9% name academic or job pressure as the main cause, and 47.8% state that a busy schedule prevents regular yoga or meditation. Music is the most common coping method (63.6%). Asked about a 10–15 minute VR relaxation session described as free of side effects, 83.3% answer “yes, definitely” and 8.3% answer “maybe” if the price is under Rs. 5000. The findings yield design requirements, a system architecture, a session workflow and a protocol for comparing the gadget with guided breathing, meditation and relaxing music. That comparison is planned, not yet carried out: the prototype has not been tested with users, and the paper makes no claim of clinical effectiveness.
Background and Purpose: Non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) is a global concern in adolescent mental health. Rural boarding middle school students, as a unique and vulnerable population, remain understudied regarding the potential heterogeneity and longitudinal trajectories of NSSI. This study aimed to identify latent classes of NSSI among this group, examine their transition patterns over time, and evaluate the effectiveness of an emotion management group intervention. Methods: Study 1 cross-sectionally surveyed 927 adolescents; we split samples into non-NSSI and NSSI subgroups and ran latent profile analysis (LPA) only among participants with NSSI ( n =285). Study 2 conducted a 6-month follow-up of 550 participants and applied latent transition analysis (LTA) to examine class shifts and predictive factors. Study 3 was a randomized controlled trial in which 30 students from the High-NSSI received an 8-week emotion-management group intervention. Intervention effects were evaluated using repeated-measures ANCOVA with demographic covariates. Results: Within the NSSI subgroup ( n = 285), two classes were identified: a High-NSSI class ( n = 21, 7.4%) and a Low-NSSI class ( n = 264, 92.6%). Poor sleep quality and bullying victimization independently predicted High-NSSI membership. Longitudinal analysis revealed high stability in the Low-NSSI class (91%) and high fluidity in the High-NSSI class (83% transitioning to low-risk). The emotion-management intervention significantly reduced both NSSI frequency and negative affect. Discussion: These findings demonstrate that clinically meaningful NSSI subtypes exist among rural boarding adolescents and that sleep quality and bullying are key modifiable risk factors. The results support a stepped-care approach in school settings, where the High-NSSI class requires intensive intervention and the Low-NSSI class may benefit from less intensive, universal supports. The emotion-management group intervention is an effective school-based program for the most severe NSSI subtype. Keywords: non-suicidal self-injury, latent profile analysis, latent transition analysis, emotion management, group intervention
This study focused on the competency profile of managers and the performance of MFIs in Goma. The objective of this study is to establish a link between the competency of managers and the performance of MFIs in Goma. The data used in this study were collected in the city of Goma on the basis of qualitative surveys (individual surveys, questionnaires). The data was processed using SPSS and Smart PLS 4 statistical analysis software with a structural equation econometric model.Based on a sample of 148 agents within the MFIs surveyed in July 2024, we selected a total of nine variables, including three independent variables serving as indicators of managerial skill profiles (generic, technical and conceptual skills), three dependent variables serving as performance indicators (financial performance, market performance and operational performance) and three socio-demographic variables: the seniority of managers, their level of education and the number of training courses they have completed. The results of our research confirm that all the competency indicators and variables analysed have a positive and significant effect on the performance of the MFIs surveyed in Goma. These results encourage MFIs to develop the managerial skills of their managers with a view to improving their institutional performance.
Non-Commissioned Officers (NCOs) provide frontline guidance and support in demanding military environments, where operational workloads can affect personnel well-being and performance. This study described junior enlisted personnel’s assessments of NCO leadership, occupational burnout, and operational performance at the 560th Air Base Group, Brigadier General Benito N. Ebuen Air Base, during 2026, and examined challenges encountered by First Sergeants. A descriptive survey design involved 180 junior enlisted personnel selected from 326 eligible personnel through squadron-stratified sampling, supplemented by qualitative accounts from 11 First Sergeants. Adapted questionnaires measured four leadership dimensions, three burnout dimensions, and four performance dimensions; frequency, percentage, weighted mean, standard deviation, and thematic analysis were used. Leadership ratings ranged from 3.9236 for supervision, mentorship, and welfare support to 4.0361 for task guidance. Emotional exhaustion was moderate (M = 2.7833), whereas depersonalization (M ≈ 2.42) and reduced personal accomplishment (M = 2.1375) were low. Operational performance ratings were favorable (M = 4.0056–4.1667). Interview accounts identified manpower shortages, inadequate resources, strain on personnel welfare, and interpersonal leadership concerns. The findings informed a proposed Leadership Enhancement and Sustainability Framework prioritizing staffing, mentoring, workload management, and leadership integrity. Because the thesis did not report predictive regression or correlation tests, the results support descriptive assessment and an intervention proposal rather than established statistical prediction.
This research aims to analyze and compare the effectiveness of authoritarian and democratic leadership styles in improving student discipline in schools. The method employed is a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) using content analysis of ten reputable scientific articles published within the last decade. The results demonstrate that authoritarian leadership tends to produce only instant and fragile compliance based on fear of punishment. Conversely, democratic leadership is proven to be significantly more effective in fostering sustainable discipline by building students' intrinsic awareness through persuasive communication, dialogue, and role modeling. This democratic-transformative pattern successfully cultivates independent, responsible, and emotionally mature student characters. Therefore, democratic leadership is recommended as the primary paradigm in modern educational management to create a conducive school ecosystem.
این پژوهش با هدف تحلیل و مقایسه اثربخشی سبکهای رهبری استبدادی و دموکراتیک در بهبود نظم دانشآموزان در مدارس انجام شده است. روش مورد استفاده، مرور نظامند ادبیات (SLR) با تحلیل محتوای ده مقاله علمی معتبر منتشر شده در دهه اخیر است. نتایج نشان میدهد که رهبری استبدادی تمایل دارد تنها اطاعتی لحظهای و شکننده مبتنی بر ترس از تنبیه ایجاد کند. در مقابل، رهبری دموکراتیک در پرورش نظم پایدار از طریق ایجاد آگاهی درونی دانشآموزان با استفاده از ارتباطات اقناعی، گفتوگو و الگوسازی، بهطور قابلتوجهی مؤثرتر ثابت شده است. این الگوی دموکراتیک-تبدیلی موفق به پرورش شخصیت دانشآموزانی مستقل، مسئول و از نظر عاطفی بالغ شده است. بنابراین، رهبری دموکراتیک بهعنوان پارادایم اصلی در مدیریت آموزشی مدرن برای ایجاد اکوسیستم مطلوب مدرسه توصیه میشود.
This study examines how peer learning, mentoring, and alumni engagement jointly relate to student employability, using bibliometric and thematic analysis of 117 peer-reviewed articles indexed in Scopus (2010–2025). Publications increased markedly after 2019, reflecting growing scholarly interest in this area. Three interdependent thematic clusters emerged: peer learning as a foundation for teaching and learning practice; mentoring and experiential learning as supports for post-graduation career development; and alumni relations as a bridge between universities and workplaces. Based on these patterns, the study proposes a developmental ecosystem model of employability integrating pedagogy, relationships, and experiential learning, and suggests management education is shifting toward experiential, network-based approaches.
While research into inclusivity and dyslexia, a neurodevelopmental condition affecting language learning, has gained greater attention, multilevel stakeholders’ perspectives across both public schools and teacher education programs remain underexplored. Addressing this gap, this study adapts the broader UNESCO Policy Review Framework as a lens for investigating dyslexia-friendly inclusive practices among ELT stakeholders, including in-service teachers, school administrators, teacher educators, and university administrators in the Riau Islands, Indonesia. Utilizing a mixed-methods research design, this study gathered data through questionnaires, classroom observations, and semi-structured interviews. Subsequently, data were analyzed via descriptive statistics and thematic analysis. Results revealed limited awareness of dyslexia and inclusive education, alongside misconceptions and reliance on special schools. Although inclusive practices were evident (mainly differentiated instruction), specific support for students with dyslexia remained unaddressed. Despite inclusion being viewed positively and mandated within the education system, its implementation remained weak. The study offers implications for systemic reform, suggesting that ELT stakeholders enhance their inclusive practices through training and developing inclusive institutional management. Additionally, teacher education institutions should pursue curricular adjustments to incorporate dyslexia-friendly inclusive practices.
Digital transformation is reshaping school management and creating new demands for leadership competencies, decision-making, and resource allocation. This study examines the development of management competencies among general secondary school principals in Uzbekistan and proposes an organizational and economic mechanism to support their professional growth. Drawing on scientific literature, functional analysis, and process modelling, the research identifies key factors influencing effective school leadership in a digital environment. The proposed mechanism integrates competency assessment, targeted professional development, collaborative implementation, and systematic evaluation of managerial performance. Particular attention is given to evidence-based decision-making, efficient resource management, and staff coordination. The findings provide a conceptual foundation for strengthening school governance and improving organizational practices while highlighting the need for further empirical validation.
School accreditation in Indonesia is often reduced to completing documents before the assessment visit, so the quality it produces tends to be administrative and short-lived. SDIT Ar Refah Tanjungpinang faced the same problem before it raised its accreditation rating from C to A. This study aims to analyse the principal's strategies for building a quality culture from a Total Quality Management perspective, to explain how the values of amanah (trustworthiness) and ihsan (excellence) are internalised into that culture, and to reveal the impact of this culture on the accreditation transformation. The study employed a qualitative approach with a single case study design. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and document analysis involving the principal, teachers, administrative staff, foundation board members, the school committee, and the accreditation team. The data were analysed using the interactive model of data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing, and their trustworthiness was tested through source and technique triangulation. The findings show that the principal built a quality culture through shared quality awareness, documented work cycles, improvement-oriented evaluation, team collaboration, and role modelling. Amanah and ihsan served as intrinsic motivation that shifted work orientation from compliance to worship. The study concludes that integrating TQM principles with amanah and ihsan produces a substantive accreditation transformation, because quality is embraced as a moral and spiritual responsibility of the entire school community.
This study examined sustainability-oriented school leadership, environmental management practices, and climate resilience among selected school heads in Sapa-Sapa I District, Tawi-Tawi, as a basis for developing a Sustainable School Governance Framework. Anchored in the Whole-Institution Approach to Education for Sustainable Development, Sustainable Educational Leadership, and Organizational Climate Resilience, the study employed a descriptive-correlational design using a structured five-point Likert-scale questionnaire. Descriptive statistics and Kendall's tau-b correlation were applied to 12 school-head response profiles. The illustrative results indicated High levels of sustainability-oriented leadership (M = 3.55) and environmental management practices (M = 3.43), while climate resilience was rated Moderate (M = 3.33). Limited financial resources (66.67%), insufficient training (58.33%), inadequate infrastructure (50.00%), and limited technological support (41.67%) emerged as major challenges. A significant positive relationship was observed between leadership and environmental management (τ = 0.467, p = 0.048), while relationships involving climate resilience were not statistically significant. A preliminary Sustainable School Governance Framework was proposed, emphasizing strategic leadership, environmental resource management, disaster preparedness, stakeholder engagement, and continuous improvement. The study recommends strengthening institutional monitoring, resource conservation, capacity-building initiatives, and learning continuity mechanisms, subject to validation using actual survey data. The study aligns with SDG 4 (Quality Education), SDG 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production), and SDG 13 (Climate Action). Its potential sustainability impact involves strengthening environmental responsibility, institutional resilience, collaborative governance, and climate-responsive educational management in island-based school communities.
The digital revolution has fundamentally transformed childhood experience across the globe. In Ghana, rapid mobile internet penetration, the proliferation of low-cost smartphones, and COVID-19-induced remote learning have dramatically intensified basic school children's exposure to digital screens. Emerging evidence links digital screen addiction (DSA) to significant impairments in children's psychological well-being encompassing emotional, cognitive, social, and behavioural dimensions. Yet, school management responses in Ghanaian basic schools remain underdeveloped and largely uncoordinated. This narrative literature review synthesizes global and sub-Saharan African evidence on digital screen addiction and its psychological well-being consequences among basic school children (ages 5–15), critically examines existing school management frameworks, and proposes a School-Based Digital Wellness Management Framework (SBDWMF) for Ghanaian basic schools. A narrative synthesis approach was employed. Literature was sourced from PubMed, Google Scholar, Scopus, PsycINFO, African Journals Online (AJOL), and grey literature from the WHO, UNESCO, UNICEF, Ghana Education Service (GES), Ghana Health Service (GHS), and the Ministry of Education. Peer-reviewed empirical studies, systematic reviews, meta-analyses, and policy documents published from 2010 to 2024 were included, with a total of 72 sources forming the evidence base. DSA is prevalent among basic school-age children globally, with pooled prevalence estimates ranging from 19% to 38% depending on measurement tools and contexts. Excessive screen exposure is consistently associated with psychological distress, anxiety, depression, attentional difficulties, emotional dysregulation, impaired self-esteem, peer-relationship deficits, and poor academic well-being. In Ghana, contextual risk amplifiers, including parental digital literacy gaps, absent school mental health services, post-COVID normalization of extended screen use, and fragmented policy, compound the psychological burden. School management frameworks in Ghanaian basic schools are largely inadequate to address DSA, with critical deficits in policy, counselling capacity, teacher training, and parental engagement. DSA poses a mounting psychological well-being challenge for Ghanaian basic school children, demanding an urgent, evidence-informed school management response. The proposed six-pillar SBDWMF offers a practical governance architecture for Ghanaian basic school heads, district education officers, and national policymakers to address DSA comprehensively within the school setting.
This article analyzes the management of distance education (DE) in the context of continuing education for youth and adults (EPJA), exploring its institutional, pedagogical, and technical dimensions. Through an approach that compares empirical data, obtained from a jurisdictional survey with federal regulations and analyzes them through the lens of contemporary theoretical frameworks, the study examines how provinces operationalize the principles of flexibility and modularity. The results reveal significant heterogeneity in the implementation of teaching roles, technological supports, and assessment criteria. It is concluded that the quality of this modality depends on comprehensive management that ensures coherence between organizational and instructional decisions, thereby guaranteeing the continuity of participants' educational trajectories, through the pedagogical option of distance education, which is mediated and hosted in virtual learning environments (VLEs), designed specifically for the particular needs of adult learners.
Classroom participation in beginner Arabic courses is often interpreted through the number of students who answer questions aloud. This conceptual and practice-oriented paper argues that such a measure obscures differences between willingness to communicate, linguistic capacity, and the opportunity to participate. Drawing on research in Arabic learning, willingness to communicate, classroom discourse, interaction, and corrective feedback, it develops a barrier–indicator–response matrix for teacher decision-making. Six barriers are paired with provisional observable indicators, proportionate instructional responses, and limits on the evidence supporting each response. Three hypothetical Arabic classroom applications illustrate how the matrix can guide preparation, participation opportunities, and feedback without turning visible participation into a proxy for learning. The matrix is a heuristic rather than a validated diagnostic or intervention instrument. Future observational and intervention studies are needed to test its utility in beginner Arabic settings.
Effective leadership is important to the functioning and development of private higher education institutions. This study analyzed leadership experiences and perceptions at Africa Renewal University (AfRU), focusing on the qualities and practices perceived to contribute to effective leadership. A mixed-method case study design was used, combining structured questionnaires and semi-structured interviews with students, teaching staff, non-teaching staff, management and senior leaders. The study obtained responses from 133 participants out of a target population of 200, representing a 66.5% response rate. Transformational leadership was the most frequently identified leadership style across all respondent groups, reported by 86.96% of students, 77.5% of teaching staff, 66.67% of non-teaching staff, and 70% of management and senior leaders. Among the leadership qualities examined, integrity and ethics received the highest number of responses, followed by effective communication, problem-solving and decision-making. Empathy and emotional intelligence and visionary thinking were also identified, although their emphasis varied across respondent groups. The findings indicate that perceived leadership effectiveness at AfRU was associated with a combination of ethical conduct, effective communication and practical leadership capabilities within a predominantly transformational leadership context. The study highlights the importance of developing leaders who can combine ethical character with effective communication, decision-making and problem-solving in private higher education.
Curriculum reform depends on how school leaders support its everyday implementation. This study examined the relationship between curriculum leadership practices and perceived curriculum implementation effectiveness among public school heads in Albay, Ligao City, and Iriga City, Philippines. Guided by Hallinger and Murphy’s instructional leadership model, a cross-sectional descriptive-correlational design was used. Fifty school heads voluntarily completed a questionnaire containing 60 items across six subscales. Analyses included descriptive statistics, internal consistency estimates, Pearson correlation, and simultaneous multiple regression, supplemented by rank-based correlation, robust standard errors, and influential-case checks. Respondents reported very high leadership practices (M = 4.702, SD = 0.375) and implementation effectiveness (M = 4.678, SD = 0.359). However, 71.2% of item responses received the highest rating, indicating a ceiling effect. Overall leadership and implementation scores were strongly associated (r = .804, p < .001). The regression model explained 66.8% of the observed variance. Positive learning climate was the only dimension with a significant unique association (B = 0.535, β = .595, p = .002), a finding retained in sensitivity analyses. Mission definition and instructional management did not contribute significant additional variance after their overlap with learning climate was considered. Findings suggest that collaboration, recognition, inclusion, and professional learning deserve attention in curriculum support. Nevertheless, the voluntary sample, common source of measurement, unverified content validity, and overlapping predictors limit interpretation. The results describe perceptions rather than independently demonstrated effectiveness and cannot establish causation. Larger studies using validated instruments, teacher reports, observations, and documentary evidence are needed to test these relationships.
The article analyses the cognitive and pragmatic functions of anthropomorphic metaphor in contemporary English-language discourse relating to project management and innovative information technologies. Particular attention is devoted to the conceptual mechanisms through which human characteristics, physiological states, cognitive processes and social relationships are projected onto abstract technological phenomena and corporate management practices. The study investigates the role of anthropomorphic metaphor in the formation of specialised terminology, the conceptualisation of complex digital processes and the facilitation of professional communication within multicultural corporate environments. Drawing upon the cognitive theory of metaphor, the research employs corpus-based analysis using Corpus Query Language (CQL) to identify, extract and classify metaphorical expressions occurring in technical documentation and professional project management communications. The analysis examines representative terminological units, including parent/child process, orphan file, zombie process, dead code, AI hallucinations, handshake, project health check and post-mortem, with particular emphasis on their underlying source domains and communicative implications. The findings reveal systematic patterns of metaphorical conceptualisation across two principal areas: innovative IT technologies and corporate project management. Technological processes are frequently represented through metaphors associated with human mortality, vitality and cognitive activity, whereas managerial practices draw extensively upon models of physical health, social interaction and interpersonal relationships. Three principal pragmatic functions of anthropomorphic metaphors are identified: cognitive-heuristic, communicativemanagerial and emotional-psychological. These functions contribute to the interpretation of complex technical phenomena, the establishment of shared professional terminology and the conceptual framing of organisational processes. The research further identifies the relevance of anthropomorphic terminology to intercultural professional communication, particularly in environments where English functions as a lingua franca. It is established that understanding the conceptual foundations of such expressions represents an important component of specialised linguistic competence among future engineers and IT professionals. The findings provide a theoretical and methodological basis for incorporating anthropomorphic terminology into English for Specific Purposes (ESP) instruction at technical universities, thereby supporting the development of professional communicative competence and intercultural adaptability in international technological and corporate contexts. Keywords: anthropomorphic metaphor, cognitive linguistics, IT discourse, project management, English for Specific Purposes.
ABSTRACT Disasters caused by the eruption of Mount Semeru not only cause physical damage but also affect the mental condition of the victims, especially teenagers as one of the vulnerable groups who are going through psychosocial development in their lives. Teenagers after a disaster can experience anxiety, stress, depression, and even PTSD. This community service aims to improve stress management skills, rebuild a sense of safety, and enhance social connections within the community. This community service applied a psychosocial intervention method to improve knowledge, stress management skills, and peer support using growth focus resilience questionsare. From the analysis of measurement results from 19 respondents who underwent psychosocial interventions, there was a tendency for their psychological conditions to improve. This is evidenced by the average score increasing from 66.11 to 75.00 out of a maximum score of 80, indicating the potential of REM-JIWA in enhancing the adaptive ability and psychological resilience of post-disaster adolescents. Psychosocial interventions can reduce stress levels in teenagers and improve their knowledge of stress management and resilience in adolescents. Keywords: Semeru Eruption, Psychosocial Intervention, Semeru Eruption, Post- Disaste, Adolescents.
Objective: This study investigates the common characteristics of countries with high happiness index scores using a cluster analysis of 20 nations. Design: The study is an ecological study where the unit of observation is the population in a country. Setting: Data were drawn from the World Happiness Report, World Bank, WHO, and World Population Review (2023–2025). Main outcome measures: The study focused on five variables: social support, GDP per capita, healthy life expectancy, crude death rate, and health expenditure. Results: Results revealed that countries in higher-performing clusters exhibited consistently strong social support systems, moderate to high GDP per capita, high healthy life expectancy, moderate crude death rates, and substantial public health spending. Among these factors, social support emerged as the most influential determinant, aligning with recent literature emphasizing the psychological and societal benefits of strong interpersonal networks. GDP alone was not a sufficient predictor of happiness; countries with high economic output but lower investment in health and social infrastructure ranked lower in overall well-being. Conclusions: This study demonstrates that countries with high happiness cannot be characterized by economic prosperity alone. The cluster analysis showed that high happiness may coexist with different combinations of economic, social, and health conditions. The study therefore characterizes countries with high Happiness Index scores as heterogeneous rather than uniform.
In today’s dynamic service sectors, particularly aviation and tourism, innovation is a vital driver of performance. While leadership is known to foster innovation, the mechanisms by which leadership influences innovation outcomes through team learning remain underexplored. This study examines the impact of innovation leadership on team performance through team explorative learning, employee innovation, and team innovation, and further examines the moderating role of customer relationship management (CRM) practices in these relationships. Drawing on Social Exchange Theory and Social Learning Theory, innovation is conceptualized as a multi-level outcome shaped by leadership and team dynamics. Using Structural Equation Modelling on survey data from 430 employees and leaders in Vietnam’s aviation and tourism sector, the findings show that innovation leadership enhances team explorative learning, which in turn promotes employee and team innovation. These innovation outcomes subsequently enhance team performance, confirming their mediating roles in the relationship between team explorative learning and performance. Moreover, customer relationship management (CRM) practices moderate these relationships by strengthening the effect of team innovation on performance and attenuating the direct relationship between team explorative learning and team performance. In contrast, CRM practices had a limited moderating effect on the relationship between employee innovation and team performance. This study advances understanding of the indirect pathways through which leadership drives innovation and highlights CRM practices as a boundary condition. Practical implications for managing innovation in complex service environments are offered.
The purpose of this paper is to identify the strategies for developing and unlocking the professional capability and capacity of senior hospital managers in Nepal. This research is the first published study outlining the self-perspectives of Nepalese senior hospital managers on their capability and capacity development. The study utilised a qualitative descriptive design as the second phase of a larger sequential mixed methods research project. Data were collected from 11 senior hospital managers through semi-structured interviews conducted online via the Zoom online videoconferencing platform between August to October 2024. Four key themes identified were: Stability, continuity and coherence; Practical and logistical constraints; Interference, conflict and control; and managing the mismatch between ability and expectations. Findings highlight breakages in work roles and pervasiveness of political and opportunistic individual actions alongside complex and lengthy bureaucratic processes that stifled senior public hospital managers working roles. Along with well-organised administrative procedures, appropriate compliance training for senior hospital managers is sought essential. Findings from this study may be broadly applicable to other under resourced countries in the Asia Pacific region.
The article is devoted to substantiating the structural components of stress resilience of future managers in the process of professional training in institutions of professional pre- higher education. The relevance of the study is determined by the growing demands on the professional activity of a modern manager, which is characterized by high responsibility, the dynamic nature of management processes, the need for prompt decision-making, constructive interaction with people, and effective functioning under conditions of constant change and psycho- emotional workload. Based on the analysis of scientific sources, it has been established that there is no unified approach to determining the structure of stress resilience in contemporary psychological and pedagogical literature. Depending on their conceptual foundations, researchers focus on its emotional, cognitive, behavioral, motivational, and personal characteristics. In this study, stress resilience is considered as a form of psychological resilience that ensures an individual’s ability to adapt effectively to the influence of stressors, maintain the productivity of professional activity, and act constructively in complex managerial situations. The author’s structure of stress resilience of future managers has been substantiated, comprising motivational-value, cognitive- behavioral, emotional-regulatory, and reflexive-communicative components. It has been established that the motivational-value component determines an individual’s orientation towards developing their own stress resilience and awareness of its professional significance; the cognitive-behavioral component characterizes the level of knowledge about the nature of stress and the ability to apply effective ways of coping with it; the emotional-regulatory component ensures self-control, emotional balance, and the ability to act under conditions of psychological tension; the reflexive-communicative component is associated with self-analysis of professional activity, constructive interaction within a team, and readiness for personal and professional self-improvement. The proposed component structure can be used as a theoretical basis for developing criteria, indicators, pedagogical conditions, and a model for developing stress resilience in future managers.
The discussion on third gender rights today highlights a significant socio-legal transformation, tracing a path from historical respect through colonial criminalisation to current constitutional acknowledgement. This evolution signifies a growing recognition and validation of third gender identities within legal frameworks, demonstrating a societal shift towards inclusivity and acceptance, as well as addressing long-standing discrimination and marginalisation faced by these individuals. Despite constitutional promises, systemic discrimination, social exclusion and inadequate legal protections continue to deprive transgender persons of civil rights such as voting, marriage, property ownership and access to justice. The article concludes that genuine recognition of gender identity, beyond token legislation, is essential to secure equality and dignity for transgender communities in the contemporary era.
This work adopts a Foucauldian approach, including genealogy and biopolitics, to analyze violence in Mexico during the so-called “dirty war” from 1967 to 1982. It emphasizes the subjects and practices that were active during that period. The study includes a thorough review of relevant documents from the era, including materials declassified by the Mexican government to support the analysis. Additionally, it explains the concept of biopolitical memory as a mechanism of life management created by the Mexican state to address potential threats.
This study is motivated by the importance of transparency and accountability in Islamic financial management to ensure justice, honesty, trustworthiness, and the protection of the rights of parties involved in financial transactions. Although Islamic accounting studies have developed in areas such as financial reporting and institutional governance, the integration of Qur’anic values through the perspective of Nusantara Qur’anic exegesis remains an area that requires further development. This study aims to analyze Buya Hamka’s interpretation of Qur’an Surah Al-Baqarah [2]: 282–283 in Tafsir Al-Azhar concerning financial transparency and accountability and to identify its relevance to contemporary financial governance. This study employs a qualitative approach using library research. Data were collected through documentation of primary sources, namely the Qur’an and Tafsir Al-Azhar, as well as secondary sources consisting of relevant books and scholarly articles. The data were analyzed using the taḥlīlī (analytical) method of Qur’anic exegesis and content analysis, involving the identification, categorization, interpretation, and contextualization of the findings. The results indicate that Hamka’s interpretation incorporates the principles of transparency through transaction recording, clarity of rights and obligations, disclosure of information, and the appointment of an impartial record keeper. Meanwhile, accountability is reflected in witnessing, transaction verification, fulfillment of obligations, safeguarding trust, and the prohibition against concealing testimony. These findings affirm that transparency and accountability are not merely administrative requirements but also have moral and spiritual dimensions. Accordingly, these values can serve as an ethical foundation for strengthening Islamic financial governance that upholds justice, honesty, and responsibility.
Teacher performance is a key determinant of educational quality and the successful implementation of learning processes. Among the factors that may influence teacher performance are the adequacy of educational facilities and infrastructure, as well as the quality of the working environment. This study aims to examine the influence of facilities and infrastructure, together with the work environment, on teacher performance at SMA Negeri 1 Batukliang Utara, Central Lombok Regency. A quantitative approach with a descriptive research design was employed. The study involved all 33 active teachers using a total sampling technique. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire based on a five-point Likert scale and analyzed using multiple linear regression with IBM SPSS Statistics version 26. The findings reveal that facilities and infrastructure do not have a significant partial effect on teacher performance (β = 0.017; p = 0.933), whereas the work environment has a positive and statistically significant effect (β = 0.770; p = 0.003). Simultaneously, both independent variables significantly influence teacher performance (F = 10.840; p < 0.001), explaining 41.9% of the variance in teacher performance, while the remaining 58.1% is attributable to other factors not included in the research model. These findings indicate that a supportive and conducive work environment plays a more substantial role than educational facilities in improving teacher performance. Therefore, school management should prioritize the creation of a positive work environment while continuing to improve educational facilities to support teachers' professional responsibilities.
This study aims to develop an integrative conceptual model that connects student development management and Islamic Guidance and Counseling (Bimbingan dan Konseling Islam/BKI) within the framework of holistic student development in Islamic education. The study employs an integrative conceptual literature review to identify, examine, and synthesize relevant theoretical and conceptual perspectives. Literature was searched through Google Scholar, Garuda, and the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) during January–July 2026. From an initial 312 records, successive stages of duplicate removal, relevance screening, and full-text assessment resulted in a final corpus of 58 sources. The literature was analyzed through data extraction, initial coding, thematic categorization, cross-source comparison, and conceptual synthesis. The literature synthesis indicates conceptual convergence around the importance of integrating students’ spiritual, moral, psychological, and personal development within Islamic education. Based on this synthesis, the study proposes an integrative conceptual model comprising four interconnected components: fitrah as the philosophical and anthropological foundation of human potential; holistic Islamic education as the overarching developmental orientation; student development management as the institutional framework for planning, coordinating, and evaluating student development; and Islamic Guidance and Counseling as the professional support mechanism for identifying students’ needs and facilitating preventive, responsive, and developmental interventions. Functionally, fitrah establishes the foundational understanding of human potential, holistic Islamic education defines the developmental direction, student development management translates this orientation into coordinated institutional practices, and Islamic Guidance and Counseling provides individualized and group-based support within appropriate professional boundaries. These components operate as a mutually reinforcing framework for integrating educational planning, student support, and holistic development. The study concludes that this model offers a coherent conceptual basis for understanding student development in Islamic education, while its practical applicability and effectiveness require further empirical examination.
This study investigates the influence of planning and coordination in quality assurance practices on management of instruction in public secondary schools in North-Central Nigeria. The study examined how planning activities and coordination mechanisms enhance instructional effectiveness within the school system. A descriptive survey research design was adopted. The study covered Kwara, Kogi, Niger, Benue, Nasarawa, and Plateau States. The population comprised 1,730 principals, 30,232 teachers, and 402 quality assurance officers. Using a multi-stage sampling technique, a sample of 785 participants (274 principals, 375 teachers, and 136 quality assurance officers) was selected from 274 public senior secondary schools. Data were collected using a self-structured questionnaire titled Influence of Planning and Coordination in Quality Assurance Practice on Management of Instruction in Public Secondary Schools (IPCQAPMIPSS). Reliability was established through Cronbach’s alpha (α = 0.889), indicating strong internal consistency. Descriptive statistics (mean and standard deviation) were used to answer research questions with a decision mean of 2.50. Findings revealed that planning practices such as timely preparation of timetables and lesson plans were generally accepted, while coordination practices showed moderate implementation across schools. The study concludes that strengthening coordinated quality assurance strategies is essential for improving instructional management and educational outcomes in the region
This study investigated assistant principals’ self-perceptions of their role as instructional leaders and examined the corresponding perceptions of principals. Grounded in Weber's (1996) instructional leadership model and using the Principal Instructional Management Rating Scale (PIMRS), this quantitative study surveyed assistant principals and principals from a large suburban district. Findings reveal a gap: assistant principals rated themselves higher in instructional leadership than their principals. The results indicate that the assistant principal role requires a clearer definition, targeted professional development, and leadership succession planning. These findings offer implications for educational leadership training and school district practices.
This study examined the alignment between professional development opportunities and instructional practices among public kindergarten teachers at West City Elementary School, Dumaguete City, during school year 2025–2026. Guided by the integrated Gibbs–ERA reflective framework, it employed a descriptive-correlational design and total enumeration of seven kindergarten teachers. Data were collected through an adapted structured questionnaire administered via Google Forms and analyzed using descriptive statistics and Spearman’s rank-order correlation. Respondents rated trainings and seminars (reported composite mean = 3.29), coaching and mentoring (3.48), classroom management (3.88), and teaching strategies (3.89) positively. Teachers particularly endorsed collaborative coaching, effective use of classroom time, supportive student–teacher relationships, differentiation, and adjustment of teaching strategies. Professional development opportunities had a very strong positive association with reported instructional practices (Spearman’s ρ = .860, p = .013, n = 7). These self-reported findings suggest that professional learning and instructional practice are closely aligned in the school, although the single-school, small-sample design cannot establish causality or verify changes in pupil outcomes. The study recommends sustained, school-based training, peer coaching, mentoring, instructional observation, and structured reflection to support transfer of professional learning to everyday teaching.
Effective school leadership is vital to school management, teacher performance, and quality education. This study examined the leadership skills, core behavioral skills, and administrative practices of public secondary school heads in the Schools Division of Cagayan de Oro City during the school year 2025–2026. It assessed key leadership and behavioral competencies and determined their relationships with administrative practices. A descriptive-correlational design was used, with universal sampling of 105 school heads. Data were gathered through a standardized questionnaire anchored on the Results-Based Performance Management System and the Philippine Professional Standards for School Heads. Frequency, percentage, weighted mean, standard deviation, and Pearson correlation were used. Findings showed high levels of leadership skills, core behavioral skills, and administrative practices. People development was the strongest leadership dimension, while teamwork and innovation were the most evident core behavioral competencies. Managing school operations and resources, and focusing on teaching and learning, were among the strongest administrative practices. The study found significant positive relationships between leadership skills and administrative practices, and between core behavioral skills and administrative practices. The study concludes that effective school leadership requires a combination of people leadership, professional behavior, instructional leadership, strategic management, and administrative competence. It recommends needs-based leadership development, mentoring and coaching, stronger results-focused practices, ongoing instructional leadership training, stakeholder engagement, reflective practice, and individualized professional development plans to support the continued growth of school heads.
This study examined the relationships among teachers’ core behavioral competencies, professional performance, and students’ learning achievement in Music, Arts, Physical Education, and Health (MAPEH) in the Department of Education Districts of Ilog I and II, Negros Occidental, Philippines. Using a descriptive-correlational research design, the study involved 38 MAPEH teachers and 190 students from ten public secondary schools, selected through total enumeration and proportional sampling, respectively. Data were gathered using a standardized questionnaire based on DepEd Order No. 2, s. 2015, teachers’ Individual Performance Commitment and Review Form (IPCRF) ratings, students’ academic records, and supplementary key informant interviews. Descriptive statistics and Pearson correlation analysis were employed. Findings revealed very high competencies in self-management (M = 3.826) and professionalism and ethics (M = 3.736), while result focus, teamwork, service orientation, and innovation were rated high. Teachers demonstrated very satisfactory professional performance (M = 3.557), whereas students achieved satisfactory academic performance in MAPEH (M = 84.142). Significant positive relationships were reported between result focus and teachers’ performance (r = .869, p = .028), innovation and students’ learning achievement (r = .797, p = .043), and teachers’ performance and students’ learning achievement (r = .797, p = .043). The findings highlighted the relevance of result-oriented practices, instructional innovation, and professional competence in supporting educational outcomes. Continuous professional development and a one-year competency enhancement plan were recommended to strengthen teaching effectiveness and student achievement. The study aligns with Sustainable Development Goal 4 (Quality Education) by emphasizing teacher development and improved learning outcomes. Its contribution to educational and institutional sustainability lies in supporting continuous professional improvement, instructional innovation, and sustained educational quality in public secondary schools.
This study aims to examine the effectiveness of the PJBL model with a scientific approach that influences student learning outcomes. The method used in this study is a literature study by collecting and analyzing various previous research sources related to the implementation of PjBL in elementary schools. This literature study focuses on how PjBL can develop students' cognitive, affective, psychomotor, and social-emotional skills. The results of the study show that PjBL through a scientific approach can increase students' interest, motivation, and learning outcomes. This model encourages students to collaborate, think critically, and actively engage in real projects that are relevant to everyday life. However, there are several challenges in its implementation. The success of this model requires support from good time management, teacher guidance, and adequate facilities.
Teachers’ participation in professional development is often high, yet it does not always translate into classroom innovation, a persistent transfer-of-learning gap. This study explores how principals’ assertive communication was associated with teachers’ professional competence development in two junior high schools (one public, one private) in Brebes Regency, Indonesia. An explanatory sequential mixed-methods design was used: baseline teacher competence was descriptively mapped from the Ruang GTK platform and the Education Report (Rapor Pendidikan), followed by a qualitative phase with 22 purposively selected informants (principals, vice-principals, teachers, students, and parents). Data were gathered through surveys, interviews, observations, and document analysis, and analyzed using Miles et al.’s interactive model with triangulation. Baseline data showed high training participation (score 4) but stagnant instructional innovation and classroom management (scores 2–3). Four interactional dimensions of assertive communication emerged: directive transparency, dialogic respect, non-blaming corrective feedback, and facilitative advocacy. These were associated with reduced teacher defensiveness and greater openness to interactive and digital teaching, and varied with institutional readiness. The study frames assertive leadership as a dynamic system of instructional communication rather than a fixed trait. Given its two-school, non-causal design, the findings are context-specific; they suggest that sustaining competence requires structured post-training clinical supervision and a constructive feedback culture.
Abstract This study examines whether and how RME can be performed as an epistemic object to broaden business schools’ education on climate change. The research builds on a qualitative case study involving 10 Finnish business schools. The analysis reveals that RME is performed as both an epistemic object and a boundary object, with different implications for its embeddedness within institutions. Our findings show how accreditations have introduced RME as a boundary object enforcing performativity around sustainability themes yet enabling disciplines to maintain their distinct or limited roles. At the same time, RME is met with both resistance and compliance, depending on how well the object fits with disciplinary boundaries and career trajectories. Lastly, as an epistemic object, RME encourages co‐reflexivity, which is essential for climate‐proofing business schools. We discuss the possibilities of a hybrid orientation of RME as both a boundary object and an epistemic object for enforcing climate‐orientation in management education.
Abstract : The Northeastern College–College of Liberal Arts (NC-COLA) is committed to uplifting community well-being through responsive extension programs. This study evaluated the community needs of Barangay Mabini across seven domains: Education and Parenting, Food Safety and Hygiene, Human Rights and Violence Awareness, Livelihood and Financial Literacy, Disaster Risk Reduction and Management (DRRM), Environmental Conservation, and Organizational Planning and Management. Using a descriptive mixed-method design combining survey questionnaires and key informant interviews, results showed that Livelihood and Financial Literacy obtained the highest weighted mean (4.75), identifying economic vulnerability as the community’s most pressing concern. Food Safety and Hygiene (4.72), Organizational Planning and Management (4.68), Environmental Conservation (4.63), and DRRM (4.59) also registered high demand, reflecting gaps in public health, governance, and disaster preparedness. Human Rights and Violence Awareness (4.48) indicated greater preference for practical safety programs over formal legal education. It was concluded that Barangay Mabini requires coordinated, multi-stakeholder interventions targeting economic empowerment, institutional governance, and community resilience. Recommendations include financial literacy and livelihood programs, strengthening of the Barangay DRRM Council, systematic waste management, and capacity-building for local officials in partnership with relevant government agencies.
Improving the quality of Islamic education requires a quality management approach that is not only oriented toward meeting established standards but also grounded in Islamic values, including trustworthiness (amanah), justice (‘adl), excellence (ihsan), consultation (shura), and continuous improvement. This article focuses on synthesizing quality management principles with Islamic educational values and developing a quality management model that systematically integrates audit, self-evaluation, benchmarking, and accreditation. This study employs a qualitative approach using a literature review method. The research stages include identifying and selecting relevant literature, analyzing the concepts of quality management and Islamic educational values, synthesizing relevant principles, and formulating an Islamic education quality management model. The findings indicate that integrating Islamic values with quality management principles can establish a quality assurance system that goes beyond compliance with standards toward fostering an ethical, integrity-based, and sustainable quality culture. Audits function as instruments for assessment and control, self-evaluation as a reflective process for identifying institutional achievements and weaknesses, benchmarking as a means of learning from best practices, and accreditation as formal recognition of quality standards compliance. The proposed model positions Islamic values as its philosophical foundation, quality management as its organizational framework, and the four instruments as mechanisms for continuous quality improvement. Therefore, the model provides a conceptual framework for developing Islamic education quality management that is integrative, adaptive, sustainable, and oriented toward public benefit.
The article examines how prolonged wartime risks transform the marketing value of Facility Management (FM) in the corporate B2B segment of the office property market. It shows that customer value increasingly extends beyond routine service delivery, price and SLA compliance toward business continuity, responsiveness, risk reduction, transparency and organizational resilience. The study combines services marketing, perceived value, relationship marketing, business continuity and resilience approaches with qualitative analysis of recurring FM practices in Ukraine. A four-level model of FM value evolution is proposed: Operational FM, Integrated FM, Risk-oriented FM and Resilience-oriented FM. The findings support a shift from service-list and price-based positioning toward differentiation based on measurable business outcomes, adaptability and continuity support.
Purpose: The COVID-19 pandemic has increased the workload of medical personnel providing patient care, particularly inpatient nurses. Field interviews with nurses at hospitals in Bandung City indicated increased fatigue and sleepiness during the new normal adaptation period. This study aimed to measure mental workload and sleepiness among inpatient nurses in Bandung City. Methodology: A total of 275 inpatient nurses participated by completing the National Aeronautics and Space Administration Task Load Index (NASA-TLX) questionnaire to assess mental workload and the Karolinska Sleepiness Scale (KSS) to measure sleepiness. Results: Mental workload among inpatient nurses ranged from high to very high, with scores between 76.93 ± 13.18 and 81.36 ± 13.53. Hospital characteristics, gender, age, and marital status were identified as factors associated with excessive mental workload. KSS scores indicated that nurses were in the very alert to alert range after completing their duties. Furthermore, 60.73% of nurses experienced very high mental workload, while 68.73% were classified as very alert. Conclusion: The findings indicate the need for hospital management to improve working conditions through better shift scheduling, resource allocation, and equitable distribution of staff support facilities to address the needs of inpatient nurses. Originality: This study examines mental workload and sleepiness simultaneously among inpatient nurses in Bandung City and identifies factors associated with excessive mental workload, providing a basis for improving hospital workforce management during the new normal adaptation period.
Nature-based extreme sports are often framed through sensation seeking, thrill, and voluntary exposure to risk, yet this framing can obscure the meanings participants attach to prolonged engagement with demanding natural environments. This study explored how experienced South African participants interpreted the relationship between nature-based extreme sport participation and eco-sensitivity. In this article, eco-sensitivity refers to participants' reported environmental attention, affective connection with nature, recognition of ecological dependence, concern about degradation, and efforts to reduce personal impact. A qualitative design using interpretative phenomenological analysis was applied to semi-structured interviews conducted between 29 April and 4 July 2019 with 10 experienced participants, five men and five women, who represented 11 nature-based extreme sport activities and reported two to 22 years of experience. Four interconnected themes were identified: risk as a managed component of participation; connection rather than conquest; sensory sensitivity and experiences consistent with mindfulness and flow; and eco-sensitivity and self-reported pro-environmental orientation. Participants described risk as something to calculate and manage through competence, preparation, and situational judgement. They also described respect for natural forces, heightened bodily and environmental attention, and a stronger sense of ecological dependence. Reported pro-environmental practices were self-reported and were not independently observed. The findings provide an interpretive account of how participants made sense of environmental meanings within prolonged outdoor sport involvement. They do not establish a causal developmental mechanism. The results suggest propositions for athlete education, outdoor recreation management, environmental learning, and future longitudinal research. Keywords: eco-sensitivity; extreme sport; interpretative phenomenological analysis; nature connectedness; pro-environmental behaviour; risk management.
Final-year engineering students frequently face severe psychological stress driven by demanding capstone projects and rigorous accreditation standards. This research proposes a novel decision-support framework to objectively evaluate, categorize, and systematically manage academic stress among engineering undergraduates. By integrating automated non-parametric machine learning with a multi-criteria network decision model, the research bridges diagnostic psychological profiling and strategic institutional intervention. Data were gathered from six hundred eleven final-year students across four engineering departments using a validated psychometric questionnaire. The automated classification engine utilizes a nearest-neighbor algorithm based on spatial Euclidean proximity to categorize individual distress severity into depression, anxiety, and stress levels without relying on rigid parametric assumptions. Subsequently, a strategic situational assessment and a multi-perspective personal performance framework were established to translate abstract psychological findings into measurable indicators. Clinical experts and academic domain specialists evaluated these indicators using an analytical network process, incorporating complex interdependencies and feedback loops to compute steady-state priority weights. Empirical results revealed that over ninety percent of respondents experienced at least moderate psychological distress. Crucially, the mathematical prioritization demonstrated that the financial perspective holds the paramount priority weight, followed by internal cognitive resilience, continuous knowledge acquisition, and external social relationships. This proves that financial stability serves as a foundational prerequisite for academic recovery and intellectual execution. The primary contribution of this research lies in converting static psychometric evaluations into a dynamic, clinically validated decision-support tool. Higher education institutions and academic counselors can implement this prioritized framework to allocate institutional resources effectively, design targeted financial relief initiatives, and optimize student well-being alongside academic excellence.
Higher education institutions are expected to continuously evaluate graduate programs to ensure that curricular offerings remain relevant, responsive, and aligned with the evolving demands of professional practice. This study assessed the relevance and applicability of the Master of Arts in Educational Management (MAEM) curriculum of Guagua National Colleges to the current professional work of its graduates and identified areas for curriculum enhancement. Using a quantitative descriptive-comparative research design, data were collected from 33 MAEM graduates through a structured survey questionnaire. Descriptive statistics such as frequency, percentage, weighted mean, and ranking were utilized to analyze quantitative data, while thematic analysis was employed to examine graduates' recommendations. Results revealed that most graduates occupy positions closely related to educational leadership and management, with 87.88% indicating that their present work is highly related or related to educational management. The overall relevance and applicability of the curriculum obtained a very high rating (M = 4.69), while the adequacy of competencies developed through the program received a mean rating of 4.67. Human Resource and Organizational Management emerged as the highest-rated competency area (M = 4.76), whereas Problem-Solving and Evidence-Based Decision-Making obtained the lowest mean rating (M = 4.64), though still interpreted as very high. Graduates recommended strengthening content related to digital leadership, educational technology, artificial intelligence, instructional leadership, research utilization, and experiential learning. Based on these findings, a Responsive MAEM Curriculum Enhancement Framework was proposed. The study concludes that the MAEM curriculum remains highly relevant to current professional requirements but should continuously evolve to address emerging educational challenges and technological advancements.
This article sought to adapt and validate an instrument for the perception of management policies and practices aimed at higher education professors, since the available instruments were designed for organisations in general and do not address the particularities of academic work. The instrument was based on two scales already validated for Brazilian organisations, with the addition of items on research incentives, publication support and the teaching career. Content and criterion validity derived from the published origin of the items, complemented by prior definition of the constructs, peer review and pre-testing. A total of 386 professors from Brazilian public and private institutions took part, answering on an interval scale based on adverbs of quantity and frequency. Internal consistency reached a Cronbach's alpha of 0.956. Exploratory factor analysis, used for the statistical validation of the constructs defined a priori, retained six factors explaining 67.3% of the accumulated variance, with a sampling adequacy of 0.948. The expected dimensions were reproduced, and the added items formed a factor of their own. It is concluded that the adapted instrument is suitable for measuring teachers' perception of institutional management.
This study examined the associations of self-regulation, self-esteem, and digital literacy with students' perceived learning achievement at Ariya Metta Vocational High School, Tangerang. The quantitative ex post facto study included 154 students drawn from a population of 250 through proportional stratified random sampling. Online questionnaire responses were analysed using multiple linear regression in SPSS version 27. Self-regulation (B = 1.349; β = 0.494; t = 6.739; p < .001) and self-esteem (B = 0.624; β = 0.345; t = 4.113; p < .001) were positively associated with perceived achievement after adjustment for the other predictors. Digital literacy showed no significant unique association (B = 0.040; β = 0.019; t = 0.248; p = .804). The model accounted for 63.0% of the observed variation (R² = .630; adjusted R² = .622). Although digital literacy was significant in a simple regression, the association did not persist in the full model, indicating overlapping explanatory information among predictors. The findings support attention to learning management and students' evaluations of themselves while encouraging academically purposeful uses of digital resources. Because achievement was self-reported and the design was observational, the results do not establish causality.
This study identified the competency needs of emerging school leaders in financial management, strategic partnerships, and project implementation as a basis for developing a capability building program. Using a descriptive research design integrated with a Research and Development (R&D) approach, the study involved 68 emerging school leaders, specifically Head Teachers and newly appointed School Heads with zero to three years of leadership experience in a public schools division in Northern Luzon, Philippines. The researchers gathered data using a competency needs assessment survey aligned with the Philippine Professional Standards for School Heads (PPSSH). The findings revealed that financial management was identified as a Moderate Training Need, while strategic partnerships and project implementation were identified as Extensive Training Needs. Based on these findings, the STEP UP! (Strengthening and Training Emerging Personnel for Upgraded Performance) Capability-Building Program was developed to address the identified competency gaps. The program subsequently underwent expert validation and pilot implementation. Validation results indicated an overall rating of Very Highly Valid, demonstrating strong alignment with competency needs, professional standards, content requirements, and implementation mechanisms. Evaluation based on Kirkpatrick’s Four-Level Model further showed that the program was highly effective, as participants reported positive reactions, increased knowledge and skills, successful application of learning in the workplace, and perceived improvements in leadership performance and school operations. The study concludes that a needs-based and standards-aligned capability-building program can effectively strengthen the competencies of emerging school leaders and contribute to improved school governance, stakeholder engagement, and project implementation.
Islamic Religious Education (PAI) is not only intended to provide an understanding of religious concepts, but also to develop students’ ability to comprehend, internalize, and apply religious values in everyday life. Therefore, the learning process needs to move beyond mere mastery of subject matter and provide meaningful and in-depth learning experiences. This study focuses on analyzing deep learning-based PAI instruction from the perspective of Robert E. Slavin’s QAIT model, which consists of Quality of Instruction, Appropriate Levels of Instruction, Incentive, and Time, at SMP Negeri 1 Blora. This study employed a qualitative approach with a case study design. The informants consisted of three PAI teachers and two students selected purposively. Data were collected through interviews, classroom observations, and documentation, and were analyzed using the Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña model through data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that PAI instruction has reflected the principles of deep learning through three main aspects: meaningful learning, mindful learning, and joyful learning. In addition, analysis based on the QAIT model shows that the learning process is supported by instructional quality, the appropriateness of instruction to students’ abilities, learning motivation, and time management. Nevertheless, limited instructional time remains a challenge in providing sufficient opportunities for in-depth learning through discussion, presentation, and reflection. This study concludes that the implementation of deep learning in PAI can support a more contextual, reflective, and meaningful learning process when supported by instructional quality, appropriate strategies tailored to students’ needs, learning motivation, and adequate time management.
This study examined the coping mechanisms and pedagogical challenges experienced by elementary teachers in utilizing interactive multimedia tools in selected public elementary schools in the Schools Division of Leyte, during School Year 2025–2026. Specifically, it determined the teachers’ demographic and professional profiles, assessed the extent of pedagogical challenges encountered in terms of technological fluency, competence, curriculum and lesson integration, time management, and resource management, and identified the coping mechanisms used to address these challenges. The study also examined whether significant differences existed in the teachers’ assessments when grouped according to their demographic characteristics and determined the relationship between pedagogical challenges and coping mechanisms. A quantitative descriptive-correlational and descriptive-comparative research design was employed, involving the total population of 145 elementary teachers from five selected public schools. Data were gathered using a researcher-made questionnaire validated by educational technology experts and analyzed using frequency, percentage, weighted mean, standard deviation, t-test, analysis of variance, and Pearson product-moment correlation at the 0.05 level of significance. The findings showed that teachers experienced varying degrees of difficulty in integrating interactive multimedia tools, particularly in managing technological demands, aligning digital resources with lessons, allocating preparation time, and addressing limitations in available resources. Despite these challenges, teachers demonstrated adaptive coping practices, particularly through collaboration and peer support, resourcefulness, adaptation, personal reflection, and self-care. The findings further indicated differences in some assessments when respondents were grouped according to selected demographic characteristics, while the relationship between pedagogical challenges and coping mechanisms reflected the teachers’ efforts to adjust to technology-related demands. Based on the findings, enhanced digital-based literacy teaching-learning activities were developed to strengthen teachers’ technological and pedagogical competencies and support more practical, engaging, and sustainable technology integration in elementary classrooms.
Purpose: Although leadership behaviors have been widely examined in relation to teacher outcomes, limited empirical research has explored how different leadership dimensions influence teachers’ morale within highly centralized educational systems such as Thailand’s primary education sector. Existing studies have often emphasized administrative control and procedural compliance, while comparatively less attention has been given to the role of relationship-oriented leadership behaviors in sustaining teachers’ morale within centralized administrative contexts. This study therefore examines the relationship between leadership behaviors within educational administration and teachers’ morale in Thai primary schools in central Thailand. Research design, data and methodology: This study employed a quantitative research design using a survey approach. Data were collected from 417 teachers and educational personnel working in primary schools across central Thailand through anonymous self-administered questionnaires. Leadership behaviors were categorized into task-oriented and relationship-oriented dimensions, while teachers’ morale was examined through Herzberg’s Motivation-Hygiene Theory. Descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation analysis, and multiple regression analysis were employed to examine the relationships between leadership behaviors and teachers’ morale. Results: The findings revealed that both task-oriented and relationship-oriented leadership behaviors were positively associated with teachers’ morale. Relationship-oriented leadership behaviors, particularly motivation and participation, demonstrated stronger predictive influence on teachers’ morale than task-oriented dimensions such as planning and supervision. The regression model explained a substantial proportion of variance in teachers’ morale, indicating that interpersonal and participatory leadership practices play an important role within centralized educational environments. Conclusions: The study contributes empirical evidence to educational administration research by demonstrating that leadership effectiveness within centralized educational systems may involve not only administrative coordination and policy implementation but also relationship-oriented leadership practices that support teachers’ professional well-being. The findings further suggest that balancing organizational structure with human-centered leadership may help sustain teachers’ morale within Thai primary schools.
Purpose: This study aims to identify the factors influencing teachers’ job satisfaction using a middle school in Dazhou City, Sichuan Province, China. Research design, data and methodology: A quantitative research design was adopted. Questionnaire surveys were distributed to 90 teachers at a middle school in Tongchuan District using stratified random sampling. Multiple linear regression was used to examine the relationships between working hours, work pressure, organizational commitment, teacher self-efficacy, teacher career motivation, and job satisfaction. In addition, a 16-week strategic planning program was implemented with 30 teachers to improve job satisfaction. Paired sample t-tests were applied to compare the pre- and post-intervention results. Results: The multiple linear regression results show that organizational commitment, teacher career motivation, and teacher self-efficacy have significant positive effects on job satisfaction. Working hours and work pressure do not show significant direct effects in the regression model. After the program implementation, the paired sample t-test results indicate significant improvements in working hours, work pressure, organizational commitment, teacher self-efficacy, teacher career motivation, and overall job satisfaction. Conclusions: The findings suggest that school management practices that strengthen organizational commitment, support teachers’ professional motivation, and improve working conditions can enhance teachers’ job satisfaction. Practical actions such as flexible work arrangements, professional development opportunities, and participatory school governance may help improve teachers’ workplace experiences and support sustainable educational development.
Background The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine represent unprecedented global stressors with substantial consequences for mental health. Objective A repeated cross-sectional study was conducted in three independent Hungarian samples before COVID-19 ( N = 249), after the second wave of COVID-19 ( N = 265), and during the early phase of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine ( N = 148) to examine differences in meaning in life, coping competencies, and fear of death, as well as in the relationships among these constructs. The outbreak of the invasion during data collection provided a unique opportunity to examine these constructs during its early phase. Results Compared with the post-COVID sample, lower descriptive levels of fear of death were observed following the outbreak of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Lower levels of several coping resources, particularly sense of coherence and social competencies, together with the greater relevance of search for meaning, were among the key findings associated with these unforeseen stressors. Stronger associations between coping and meaning in life were identified, while the association between presence of meaning and search for meaning became stronger following the outbreak of the invasion. Network analyses further suggested a closer integration of meaning-related processes with fear of death and coping resources, although these patterns should be interpreted cautiously given the limited stability of the network estimates. Conclusion The findings suggest that exposure to successive unforeseen large-scale stressors may be associated with the reorganization of meaning-related processes and coping resources. The patterns observed following the outbreak of the war may be interpreted within the framework of distal defense processes described by the terror management theory, although these mechanisms were not directly assessed in the present study. The results suggest that longer-term existential anxiety processes and their delayed psychological and social consequences should be considered when developing mental health interventions. These findings may contribute to the refinement of healthcare interventions across multiple levels and cultural contexts in preparation for current and future crises.
Background Eating-related behavioural factors may contribute to the complexity of glycaemic management in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), but their relationships with treatment context remain insufficiently understood. This study examined hedonic hunger and eating-disorder symptom dimensions in relation to glycaemic control across different treatment regimens in adults with T2DM. Methods This cross-sectional study included 203 adults with T2DM attending an outpatient diet clinic in southeastern Turkey between March and September 2025. Participants were receiving oral antidiabetic medication only ( n = 108), insulin only ( n = 32), or combined oral medication plus insulin therapy ( n = 63). Hedonic hunger was assessed using the Power of Food Scale (PFS), and eating-disorder symptom dimensions using the 13-item Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire–Short Form (EDE-Q-13). Anthropometric measurements, 24-h dietary recall data, fasting plasma glucose (FPG), and glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) were obtained. Hierarchical linear regression was used to examine factors associated with HbA1c. Results HbA1c differed substantially across treatment groups and was highest in the insulin-only group ( p < 0.001). Several PFS subscales and EDE-Q-13 symptom dimensions also differed between groups, although their effect sizes were small. Selected PFS dimensions were weakly positively correlated with glycaemic indicators, whereas the EDE-Q-13 eating-restraint subscale and total score showed weak inverse correlations with HbA1c. In the fully adjusted model, insulin-only and combination therapy were associated with higher HbA1c compared with oral medication only, while body mass index (BMI) was inversely associated with HbA1c. Neither the PFS food available subscale nor the EDE-Q-13 total score remained independently associated with HbA1c. The final model explained 27.2% of the variance in HbA1c (adjusted r 2 = 0.230). Conclusion Treatment context was more strongly related to glycaemic status than the behavioural measures assessed, although modest differences in hedonic hunger and eating-disorder symptom dimensions were evident across treatment regimens. These findings suggest that eating-related behavioural characteristics may provide complementary information in nutritional assessment and should be interpreted alongside the broader clinical context of T2DM management.
This article develops a professional development approach that uses digital management projects to strengthen the managerial competence of vocational education leaders. The aim is to design a mechanism for transferring learning from a short training module into everyday management practice. The article employed documentary analysis of theoretical and methodological materials and compared them with primary sources on constructive alignment, the transfer of acquired knowledge to professional practice, and digital competence frameworks. The units of analysis are curriculum topics, allocated learning time, management actions and verifiable practical outputs. The documented module comprises twelve hours, equally divided between theoretical and practical sessions; its table does not specify independent study hours. A sequence of problem identification, solution modelling, bounded implementation and reflective analysis is proposed. The classroom module is linked to twenty-four hours of workplace project activity, producing a proposed thirty-six-hour pathway. Expected outputs include a decision rationale, a data dictionary, a monitoring table and an improvement plan. The contribution is an explicit instructional connection between learning a digital tool and substantiating a management decision. The proposed pathway has not undergone a new experimental evaluation. Conditions for subsequent testing and limitations of the design are specified
Transformations in contemporary higher education require a reconsideration of the theoretical and practical foundations of student socialization management. Digital transformation, hybrid learning environments, growing student diversity, changing labour-market expectations, and participatory governance have made socialization a strategic issue in university management. The article aims to systematize contemporary models of student socialization management, identify their managerial potential and limitations, and propose an integrated structural–functional model based on theoretical synthesis. The study employs theoretical and comparative analysis, systematization, generalization, and pedagogical modelling. It argues that effective socialization management cannot be reduced to students’ adaptation to the university environment; rather, it should encompass academic and social integration, a sense of belonging, social and professional competences, professional identity, digital citizenship, self-regulation, and social agency. The proposed model integrates systemic, ecological, student-centred, competence-based, participatory, and digital-ecosystem approaches, thereby providing a more holistic, measurable, and manageable framework for student socialization.

Character education in Vocational High Schools (SMK) faces challenges in aligning technical skill development with student work ethics. This study aims to analyze the role of the Intra-School Student Organization (OSIS) in supporting character education at SMK Puspita Bangsa, South Tangerang City. This study used a descriptive qualitative approach with a case study design. Data collection was carried out through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation studies, with data validity tested using source and technique triangulation. Data analysis followed the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña. The results show that OSIS plays a crucial role through three main aspects: (1) acting as a peer role model for discipline; (2) executing structured work programs encompassing religious, disciplinary, leadership, and social care dimensions; and (3) internalizing industrial work culture values. The main obstacles encountered include the dynamics of Field Work Practice (PKL) schedules and fluctuations in member participation, which are mitigated through flexible coordination and school management support. This study concludes that OSIS is effectively a strategic vehicle for student character development in vocational schools.
Vocational education has a strategic role in preparing competent graduates according to the needs of the world of work. As the green economy develops and the Society 5.0 era, graduates are not only required to have technical competencies, but also green skills as a provision to face the transformation of the world of work. Green skills are one of the 21st century skills needed to adjust products, services, and processes to be environmentally friendly. There is a need for an improvement in education and a change in mindset or a more advanced mindset in terms of environmental awareness. Teaching modules play an important role in learning independence, the latest in this research is in modules that are environmentally oriented explicitly in non-science materials. These findings indicate that the application of e-modules in other fields such as learning in office management is still relatively limited, so it is a research opportunity that needs to be developed. This research uses a Research and Development (R&D) approach to produce environmentally friendly e-modules in correspondence materials. Product development follows the ADDIE (Analyze, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation) model. The product trial uses a quasi-experimental design with a nonequivalent control group design, which involves an experimental group and a control group that are given a pretest and posttest, respectively. The results of the study show that the feasibility level based on material experts is 85% and media experts 93% with an overall average in the category of suitable for use. The response from students obtained an average percentage of 87% with the category of very good. It can be concluded that the environmentally friendly e-module in the correspondence material was declared effective in improving green skills at SMKN 1 Wonomerto.

This study evaluated the reliability and validity of a context-aware sleep holistic cycle gate algorithm and explored its potential for artificial intelligence (AI)-based personalized sleep management in digital health-care. A 6-week prospective observational study was conducted in 25 adults aged 20–65 years. Participants recorded daytime activities, eve-ning behaviors, presleep environmental factors, sleep outcomes, and feedback adherence using a mobile application. Five sleep-related indices were calculated, and a context-aware gate algorithm comprising five domains was applied. Reliability was assessed through internal consistency and reproducibility analyses, while validity was examined using correlations with sleep quality indicators and receiver operating characteristic curve analyses. Data completion and adherence rates were 80.3%±9.8% and 72.7%±11.6%, respectively. The sleep readiness index was positively correlated with subjective sleep quality (r=0.53, P<0.01). The algorithm demonstrated moderate predictive performance (area under the curve=0.73), with the environment and presleep gates showing the highest accuracy. Following personalized feedback, sleep onset latency decreased by 12.6%, and perceived sleep quality improved significantly (P<0.05). In conclusions, the context-aware sleep holistic cycle gate algorithm demonstrated acceptable reliability and validity for predicting sleep quality. These findings suggest that the proposed framework may serve as a foundational platform for the development of AI-driven personalized sleep management systems and future digital healthcare applications related to sleep rehabilitation and health promotion.
This study determined the relationship between self-efficacy and job satisfaction among secondary public-school teachers in the Dupax del Sur District. Using a quantitative-descriptive design, data were collected from 80 teachers from Ganao, Carolotan, and Dupax del Sur National High Schools through an adopted standardized questionnaire. Findings revealed that teachers possessed a high level of self-efficacy in student engagement, instructional strategies, and classroom management. They have high job satisfaction in compensation and benefits, leadership, social relationship, and work environment. Significant relationships found between teachers' self-efficacy in student engagement with compensation and benefits, social relationship, and leadership; and self-efficacy in classroom management with compensation and benefits. This indicates that teachers exhibited high self-efficacy and job satisfaction, driven by supportive leadership and a positive work environment. To sustain and further improve these positive outcomes, the implementation of the proposed action plan is strongly recommended. The action plan is designed to systematically enhance teachers’ self-efficacy and job satisfaction through targeted professional development initiatives, strengthened leadership support mechanisms, and structured recognition and reward programs. Effective implementation of this action plan will provide schools with a practical framework for fostering a supportive organizational climate, promoting continuous teacher growth, and ultimately improving teaching quality and educational outcomes.

Purpose: This study examines the role of individual management educators in implementing Responsible Management Education (RME). It addresses a critical gap in the literature, which has disproportionately focused on institutional adoption and programme-level commitments rather than the agency, practices, and development of academics who translate these principles into reality. Methodology: Following PRISMA guidelines, this systematic literature review identified 42 peer-reviewed articles from Google Scholar (2000–2025). The data were analyzed using the inductive Gioia methodology to capture educators' actions and mapped against the UN’s seven Principles for Responsible Management Education (PRME). Findings: The review synthesizes individual academic action into four interconnected, mutually reinforcing themes: curriculum revisions, enhanced external engagement, embodiment of pedagogical changes, and academic development in teaching, learning, and researching (TLR). Crucially, academic development serves as the foundational connective thread, empowering educators with the research capability, credibility, and peer support required to drive the other three dimensions. Implications: For academics, the study demonstrates that RME is enacted through everyday choices in classroom pedagogy and collaborative research. For business school leadership, it highlights that institutional change requires actively supporting educators through protected time, mentoring, and revised workload and promotion incentives that reward responsible scholarship. Originality: By shifting the unit of analysis from the institution to the individual academic, this paper addresses why top-level PRME commitments often decouple into symbolic rhetoric. It contributes to a dynamic conceptual framework that models the individual educator as the central change agent orchestrating curriculum revision, pedagogical innovation, external collaboration, and scholarship. Limitations and directions for future research: This review primarily draws literature from Google Scholar and provides an interpretive thematic synthesis. Future research should empirically validate the framework through surveys and interviews across diverse geographic and developing-economy contexts, while further exploring the under-researched PRME Practice principle. Keywords: Responsible Management Education; PRME; Business Academics; Business Schools; Higher Education
Educational support for nurses is essential to promote oral health management education for patients with diabetes. However, few studies have focused on supporting nurses in this context. This study explored the effects of an audiovisual material designed to support nurses’ patient education on oral health management in diabetes care. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with eight certified diabetes nurse educators. Data were analyzed using content analysis. Four main themes emerged: (1) enhancement of nurses’ individual learning (8/8 participants), including improved knowledge of the connection between oral health and diabetes; (2) promotion of professional development and reflection (5/8); (3) provision of new insights into patient care (7/8), particularly regarding patient motivation strategies; and (4) identification of implementation considerations in diabetes outpatient settings. The findings suggest that the audiovisual material, designed to complement an existing evidence-based educational guide, was perceived as useful and may support nurses’ learning and educational practices related to oral health education for patients with diabetes.

The implementation of the Tilawati method as a method of learning the Qur'an requires the support of an organizational system capable of ensuring effective, efficient, and sustainable learning. However, studies on the relationship between organizational design based on Islamic educational management and the implementation of the Tilawati method are still relatively limited. This study aims to formulate an organizational design based on Islamic educational management that is effective and efficient in supporting the implementation of the Tilawati method by strengthening the functions of planning, organizing, implementing, and controlling to improve the quality of Qur'an learning. The study used a qualitative approach with a literature study (library research). Data were obtained from scientific articles, books, proceedings, and various relevant academic sources, then analyzed using content analysis techniques. The results show that the successful implementation of the Tilawati method is determined not only by the competence of educators and learning methods, but also by organizational governance that is able to systematically integrate the functions of Islamic educational management. This study resulted in the concept of Tilawati Organizational Design Based on Integrative Islamic Educational Management that emphasizes the synergy between planning, organizing, implementing, and controlling in managing Qur'an learning. Thus, organizational design becomes a strategic factor in supporting the continuous improvement of the quality of Qur'an learning.
اجرای روش تلاوتی بهعنوان روشی برای آموزش قرآن نیازمند پشتیبانی یک نظام سازمانی است که قادر به تضمین یادگیری مؤثر، کارآمد و پایدار باشد. با این حال، پژوهشها درباره رابطه بین طراحی سازمانی مبتنی بر مدیریت آموزشی اسلامی و اجرای روش تلاوتی هنوز نسبتاً محدود است. هدف این پژوهش، تدوین یک طراحی سازمانی مبتنی بر مدیریت آموزشی اسلامی است که بهطور مؤثر و کارآمد از اجرای روش تلاوتی با تقویت کارکردهای برنامهریزی، سازماندهی، اجرا و کنترل بهمنظور ارتقای کیفیت آموزش قرآن حمایت کند. این پژوهش با رویکرد کیفی و با استفاده از مطالعه کتابخانهای (پژوهش اسنادی) انجام شده است. دادهها از مقالات علمی، کتابها، مجموعه مقالات و منابع علمی مرتبط گردآوری و با استفاده از فنون تحلیل محتوا مورد تجزیه و تحلیل قرار گرفت. نتایج نشان میدهد که موفقیت اجرای روش تلاوتی نهتنها به شایستگی مربیان و روشهای یادگیری، بلکه به حاکمیت سازمانی که بتواند کارکردهای مدیریت آموزشی اسلامی را بهصورت نظاممند یکپارچه سازد، بستگی دارد. این پژوهش به مفهوم طراحی سازمانی تلاوتی مبتنی بر مدیریت آموزشی اسلامی تلفیقی دست یافته است که بر همافزایی میان برنامهریزی، سازماندهی، اجرا و کنترل در مدیریت آموزش قرآن تأکید دارد. بنابراین، طراحی سازمانی بهعنوان عاملی راهبردی در حمایت از بهبود مستمر کیفیت آموزش قرآن مطرح میشود.
The article analyses the emergence of competition between schools and the new demands it places on the work of school principals. Drawing on international and national sources, the concept of “competition management competence” is defined. Five components of this competence are substantiated: cognitive, analytical-strategic, marketing-communicative, innovative-organisational and reflective-ethical. Ways of developing this competence of principals within the in-service training system are proposed.
این مقاله به تحلیل ظهور رقابت میان مدارس و الزامات جدیدی که این رقابت بر کار مدیران مدارس تحمیل میکند، میپردازد. با بهرهگیری از منابع بینالمللی و ملی، مفهوم «شایستگی مدیریت رقابت» تعریف میشود. پنج مؤلفه این شایستگی تبیین شدهاند: شناختی، تحلیلی-راهبردی، بازاریابی-ارتباطی، نوآورانه-سازمانی و بازتابی-اخلاقی. همچنین، راههایی برای توسعه این شایستگی مدیران در چارچوب نظام آموزش ضمن خدمت پیشنهاد میشود.
This study examined the influence of teacher classroom practices on perceived primary school effectiveness in Southwestern Nigeria. Specifically, the study assessed the level of perceived school effectiveness and examined teachers’ digital instructional practices, classroom management, teacher–pupil interaction, and digital assessment and feedback practices, as well as the joint and relative contributions of these classroom practices to school effectiveness. A descriptive survey research design was adopted. The population comprised public primary school teachers in the six states of Southwestern Nigeria, while a multistage sampling procedure was used to select 1,200 teachers from 90 public primary schools across Ogun, Osun, and Ekiti States. Data were collected using the Teacher Classroom Practices and Primary School Effectiveness Questionnaire (TCPSPEQ), which demonstrated satisfactory internal consistency with a Cronbach’s alpha coefficient of 0.87. Data were analysed using frequencies, percentages, weighted means, standard deviations, Pearson Product Moment Correlation, and multiple regression at the 0.05 level of significance. Findings showed that perceived school effectiveness was relatively high (weighted mean = 2.90), while classroom management (3.08) and teacher–pupil interaction (3.10) were rated high. Teachers also reported high perceptions of interactive digital storytelling (3.00), blended learning (2.93), and mobile learning (2.89), although actual use of digital tools was comparatively limited. The study concludes that strengthening classroom management, teacher–pupil relationships, and purposeful digital instructional and assessment practices can enhance primary school effectiveness in Southwestern Nigeria. It therefore recommended school administrators should strengthen classroom supervision and instructional support to sustain effective classroom management practices among teachers.
این مطالعه به بررسی تأثیر شیوههای معلمان در کلاس درس بر اثربخشی ادراکشده مدارس ابتدایی در جنوبغربی نیجریه پرداخت. به طور خاص، سطح اثربخشی ادراکشده مدارس ارزیابی شد و شیوههای آموزشی دیجیتال معلمان، مدیریت کلاس درس، تعامل معلم و دانشآموز، و شیوههای ارزیابی و بازخورد دیجیتال معلمان مورد بررسی قرار گرفت، همچنین سهم مشترک و نسبی این شیوههای کلاسی در اثربخشی مدرسه تحلیل شد. طرح پژوهش از نوع پیمایشی توصیفی بود. جامعه آماری شامل معلمان مدارس ابتدایی دولتی در شش ایالت جنوبغربی نیجریه بود و با استفاده از روش نمونهگیری چندمرحلهای، تعداد ۱۲۰۰ معلم از ۹۰ مدرسه ابتدایی دولتی در ایالتهای Ogun، Osun و Ekiti انتخاب شدند. دادهها با استفاده از پرسشنامه شیوههای معلمان در کلاس درس و اثربخشی مدارس ابتدایی (TCPSPEQ) گردآوری شد که از نظر پایایی درونی با ضریب آلفای کرونباخ ۰٫۸۷ رضایتبخش بود. دادهها با استفاده از فراوانی، درصد، میانگین وزنی، انحراف معیار، همبستگی حاصلضرب لحظهای پیرسون و رگرسیون چندگانه در سطح معناداری ۰٫۰۵ تحلیل شدند. یافتهها نشان داد اثربخشی ادراکشده مدارس نسبتاً بالا بود (میانگین وزنی = ۲٫۹۰)، در حالی که مدیریت کلاس درس (۳٫۰۸) و تعامل معلم و دانشآموز (۳٫۱۰) نیز در سطح بالایی ارزیابی شدند. معلمان همچنین ادراک بالایی نسبت به روایتگری دیجیتال تعاملی (۳٫۰۰)، یادگیری ترکیبی (۲٫۹۳) و یادگیری سیار (۲٫۸۹) گزارش کردند، هرچند استفاده واقعی از ابزارهای دیجیتال نسبتاً محدود بود. مطالعه نتیجه میگیرد که تقویت مدیریت کلاس درس، روابط معلم و دانشآموز و شیوههای هدفمند آموزشی و ارزیابی دیجیتال میتواند اثربخشی مدارس ابتدایی در جنوبغربی نیجریه را افزایش دهد. بنابراین توصیه میشود مدیران مدارس نظارت بر کلاس درس و حمایت آموزشی را برای حفظ شیوههای مؤثر مدیریت کلاس درس در میان معلمان تقویت کنند.
This study assessed interns’ performance in school-based tasks as a basis for an internship preparedness program among student-teachers. It examined internship preparedness in terms of pedagogical knowledge, lesson planning, classroom management, professional behavior, and time, communication, and technological skills, as well as performance in teaching demonstrations, lesson preparation, classroom management, collaboration, and professional conduct. A descriptive-correlational research design was employed to determine the level of preparedness and performance of the respondents. Findings revealed that student-teachers demonstrated a very high level of internship preparedness, with all indicators interpreted as “Strongly Agree” and reflected in high weighted mean scores. Professional behavior obtained the highest rating, while classroom management obtained the lowest, although still interpreted as “Strongly Agree.” In terms of performance, collaboration and professional conduct obtained the highest mean scores, followed by teaching demonstration and lesson preparation, indicating strong teaching competencies among the respondents. Inferential results showed that all components of internship preparedness were significantly related to teaching performance, leading to the rejection of the null hypothesis. This confirms that higher levels of preparedness are associated with better teaching performance among student-teachers. Overall, the study concludes that student-teachers are highly prepared and competent for their teaching internship. The findings emphasize the need to further strengthen classroom management skills while sustaining training in pedagogical and technological competencies to enhance internship effectiveness.
این پژوهش عملکرد کارورزان را در وظایف مبتنی بر مدرسه به عنوان مبنایی برای برنامه آمادگی کارورزی در میان دانشجومعلمان ارزیابی کرد. آمادگی کارورزی از نظر دانش آموزشی، برنامهریزی درسی، مدیریت کلاس، رفتار حرفهای، و مهارتهای زمانی، ارتباطی و فناورانه، همچنین عملکرد در ارائههای آموزشی، آمادهسازی درس، مدیریت کلاس، همکاری و رفتار حرفهای مورد بررسی قرار گرفت. از طرح پژوهش توصیفی-همبستگی برای تعیین سطح آمادگی و عملکرد پاسخدهندگان استفاده شد. یافتهها نشان داد که دانشجومعلمان سطح بسیار بالایی از آمادگی کارورزی را نشان دادند، به طوری که همه شاخصها به عنوان «کاملاً موافقم» تفسیر شدند و در میانگین وزنی بالا منعکس گردیدند. رفتار حرفهای بالاترین امتیاز را کسب کرد، در حالی که مدیریت کلاس پایینترین امتیاز را به دست آورد، اگرچه همچنان به عنوان «کاملاً موافقم» تفسیر شد. از نظر عملکرد، همکاری و رفتار حرفهای بالاترین میانگین امتیاز را کسب کردند و پس از آن ارائه آموزشی و آمادهسازی درس قرار گرفتند که نشاندهنده شایستگی قوی آموزشی در میان پاسخدهندگان است. نتایج استنباطی نشان داد که همه مؤلفههای آمادگی کارورزی با عملکرد آموزشی رابطه معناداری دارند و این امر منجر به رد فرضیه صفر شد. این امر تأیید میکند که سطوح بالاتر آمادگی با عملکرد بهتر آموزشی در میان دانشجومعلمان همراه است. به طور کلی، پژوهش نتیجه میگیرد که دانشجومعلمان برای کارورزی آموزشی خود بسیار آماده و شایسته هستند. یافتهها بر لزوم تقویت بیشتر مهارتهای مدیریت کلاس و در عین حال حفظ آموزش در شایستگیهای آموزشی و فناورانه برای افزایش اثربخشی کارورزی تأکید میکند.

تعامل معلم و دانشآموز و پیامدهای تحصیلی پایه ششم در درس آموزش ارزشهای انسانی (Edukasyon Sa Pagpapakatao) در مرکز آموزش ویژه بیسلیگ سیتی، حوزه بیسلیگ سیتی: رویکرد توصیفی-همبستگی
This descriptive-correlational study examined the relationship between teacher–pupils’ interaction and the academic performance of Grade VI pupils in Edukasyon sa Pagpapakatao (EsP) at Bislig City SPED Center during School Year 2025–2026. The study involved 63 Grade VI pupils selected through complete enumeration. Teacher–pupils’ interaction was assessed in terms of emotional support, classroom management, and instructional support using the adapted Classroom Assessment Scoring System–Student Report (CLASS-SR), while academic performance was measured through official quarterly grades. Findings showed that teacher–pupils’ interaction was generally high, with emotional support consistently demonstrated and classroom management and instructional support often demonstrated. Pupils likewise exhibited generally very satisfactory academic performance. Correlation analysis revealed a statistically significant moderate positive relationship between teacher–pupils’ interaction and academic performance (r = 0.452, p < 0.05), indicating that stronger classroom interactions were associated with better academic outcomes. Based on the findings, interventions emphasizing emotional support, effective classroom management, instructional support, and learner engagement in values-based activities were proposed to further strengthen pupils’ performance in EsP.
این پژوهش توصیفی-همبستگی به بررسی رابطه بین تعامل معلم و دانشآموزان و عملکرد تحصیلی دانشآموزان پایه ششم در درس آموزش ارزشهای انسانی (Edukasyon sa Pagpapakatao یا EsP) در مرکز آموزش ویژه بیسلیگ سیتی در سال تحصیلی ۲۰۲۵–۲۰۲۶ پرداخت. جامعه پژوهش شامل ۶۳ دانشآموز پایه ششم بود که به روش سرشماری کامل انتخاب شدند. تعامل معلم و دانشآموزان از نظر حمایت عاطفی، مدیریت کلاس و حمایت آموزشی با استفاده از نسخه اقتباسشده ابزار Classroom Assessment Scoring System–Student Report (CLASS-SR) ارزیابی شد و عملکرد تحصیلی از طریق نمرات رسمی فصلی سنجیده شد. یافتهها نشان داد که تعامل معلم و دانشآموزان به طور کلی در سطح بالایی قرار دارد، به طوری که حمایت عاطفی به طور مستمر و مدیریت کلاس و حمایت آموزشی اغلب نشان داده میشود. همچنین، دانشآموزان به طور کلی عملکرد تحصیلی بسیار رضایتبخشی از خود نشان دادند. تحلیل همبستگی نشان داد که بین تعامل معلم و دانشآموزان و عملکرد تحصیلی رابطه مثبت متوسط و معناداری وجود دارد (r = 0.452, p < 0.05)، که بیانگر آن است که تعاملات قویتر در کلاس با پیامدهای تحصیلی بهتر همراه است. بر اساس یافتهها، مداخلاتی با تأکید بر حمایت عاطفی، مدیریت مؤثر کلاس، حمایت آموزشی و مشارکت دانشآموزان در فعالیتهای مبتنی بر ارزشها برای تقویت بیشتر عملکرد دانشآموزان در EsP پیشنهاد شد.
This qualitative descriptive case study examined the financial management experiences, challenges, and proposed solutions of school heads in Claveria North District, Masbate, and used the findings as basis for a Financial Management Capacity Enhancement Program. Ten public school heads with at least five years of leadership experience were purposively selected from principals, head teachers, and teachers-in-charge. Data were gathered through semi-structured one-on-one interviews and review of pertinent school financial documents, then analyzed thematically. Findings showed that school heads managed persistent resource inadequacy, delayed fund releases, unexpected expenditures, geographic and logistical constraints, limited formal financial management training, procurement bottlenecks, and demanding documentation and liquidation requirements. Despite these conditions, they developed competence through prioritization, strategic budget allocation, community fundraising, income-generating activities, adaptive procurement practices, peer learning, and close stakeholder coordination; some also relied on personal funds when official resources were delayed. The study concludes that the resourcefulness of rural school heads cannot substitute for institutionalized support. Context-responsive financial training, clearer and more adaptive procedures, timely releases, stronger supplier and stakeholder networks, and standardized accounting and liquidation support are therefore necessary. These findings informed a capacity enhancement program intended to strengthen transparency, accountability, compliance, and efficient financial governance in geographically isolated rural schools.
این مطالعه موردی توصیفی کیفی به بررسی تجارب، چالشها و راهکارهای پیشنهادی مدیران مدارس در زمینه مدیریت مالی در منطقه شمالی Claveria، استان Masbate پرداخت و یافتههای بهدستآمده را مبنایی برای طراحی برنامه ارتقاء ظرفیت مدیریت مالی قرار داد. ده نفر از مدیران مدارس دولتی با حداقل پنج سال سابقه رهبری، بهصورت هدفمند از میان مدیران، معاونان و مسئولان مدارس انتخاب شدند. دادهها از طریق مصاحبههای نیمهساختاریافته فردی و بررسی اسناد مالی مرتبط مدارس گردآوری و بهصورت تماتیک تحلیل شدند. یافتهها نشان داد که مدیران مدارس با کمبود مداوم منابع، تأخیر در تخصیص بودجه، هزینههای پیشبینینشده، محدودیتهای جغرافیایی و لجستیکی، آموزش رسمی محدود در زمینه مدیریت مالی، گلوگاههای تأمین کالا و الزامات دشوار مستندسازی و تسویه حساب مواجه بودند. با وجود این شرایط، آنها از طریق اولویتبندی، تخصیص راهبردی بودجه، جمعآوری کمکهای مردمی، فعالیتهای درآمدزا، شیوههای تطبیقی در تأمین کالا، یادگیری از همتایان و هماهنگی نزدیک با ذینفعان، شایستگی لازم را کسب کردند؛ برخی نیز در صورت تأخیر منابع رسمی، از منابع شخصی خود استفاده میکردند. مطالعه نتیجه میگیرد که ابتکار و خلاقیت مدیران مدارس روستایی جایگزین حمایتهای نهادی نمیشود. بنابراین، آموزش مالی متناسب با زمینه، رویههای شفاف و تطبیقیتر، تخصیص بهموقع منابع، شبکههای قویتر تأمینکنندگان و ذینفعان و پشتیبانی استانداردشده حسابداری و تسویه حساب ضروری است. این یافتهها مبنای برنامه ارتقاء ظرفیت با هدف تقویت شفافیت، پاسخگویی، رعایت مقررات و حکمرانی مالی کارآمد در مدارس روستایی دورافتاده قرار گرفت.
This study investigated the direct and parent-mediated relationships of school-based management, capacity-strengthening programs, and teacher work ethic with school output quality. A quantitative causal survey was conducted from October to December 2025 among 245 teachers randomly selected from a population of 627 teachers in public elementary schools in North Aceh Regency, Indonesia. Data were collected using questionnaires operationalizing the five constructs and analyzed through descriptive statistics, prerequisite tests, regression, and path analysis. All variables were predominantly at moderate levels: school-based management (M = 81.13), capacity strengthening (M = 81.06), teacher work ethic (M = 79.30), parental involvement (M = 80.15), and school output quality (M = 81.20). Based on the decision statistics reported in the original analysis, all nine hypothesized direct, indirect, and simultaneous paths were accepted. The complete model accounted for 9.7% of the variance in school output quality, while parental involvement had the largest coefficient in the simultaneous equation (0.13), exceeding capacity strengthening (0.07), school-based management (0.04), and teacher work ethic (0.04). These results indicate that organizational autonomy and teacher-related resources are more consequential when translated into sustained school-family engagement. The findings imply that district improvement strategies should institutionalize participatory governance, job-embedded professional learning, supportive work cultures, and structured parental partnerships while also addressing the substantial unexplained variance through broader instructional, leadership, and socioeconomic factors.
این مطالعه به بررسی روابط مستقیم و میانجیگریشده توسط والدین میان مدیریت مبتنی بر مدرسه، برنامههای تقویت ظرفیت و اخلاق کاری معلمان با کیفیت خروجی مدرسه پرداخت. پژوهش به روش پیمایش علّی کمی از اکتبر تا دسامبر ۲۰۲۵ در میان ۲۴۵ معلم که بهصورت تصادفی از جمعیت ۶۲۷ معلم مدارس ابتدایی دولتی در شهرستان آچه شمالی، اندونزی انتخاب شده بودند، انجام شد. دادهها با استفاده از پرسشنامههایی که پنج سازه را عملیاتی میکردند گردآوری و از طریق آمار توصیفی، آزمونهای پیشنیاز، رگرسیون و تحلیل مسیر تحلیل شدند. همه متغیرها عمدتاً در سطح متوسط قرار داشتند: مدیریت مبتنی بر مدرسه (M = 81.13)، تقویت ظرفیت (M = 81.06)، اخلاق کاری معلمان (M = 79.30)، مشارکت والدین (M = 80.15) و کیفیت خروجی مدرسه (M = 81.20). بر اساس آمار تصمیمگیری گزارششده در تحلیل اصلی، هر ۹ مسیر فرضی مستقیم، غیرمستقیم و همزمان پذیرفته شدند. مدل کامل ۹.۷٪ از واریانس کیفیت خروجی مدرسه را تبیین کرد، در حالی که مشارکت والدین دارای بزرگترین ضریب در معادله همزمان (0.13) بود که از تقویت ظرفیت (0.07)، مدیریت مبتنی بر مدرسه (0.04) و اخلاق کاری معلمان (0.04) بیشتر بود. این نتایج نشان میدهد که خودمختاری سازمانی و منابع مرتبط با معلمان زمانی اهمیت بیشتری مییابند که به تعامل پایدار مدرسه و خانواده تبدیل شوند. یافتهها دلالت بر آن دارد که راهبردهای بهبود منطقهای باید حکمرانی مشارکتی، یادگیری حرفهای درونکار، فرهنگهای کاری حمایتی و مشارکت ساختاریافته والدین را نهادینه کنند و همزمان به واریانس توضیحدادهنشده قابل توجه از طریق عوامل گستردهتر آموزشی، رهبری و اجتماعیاقتصادی بپردازند.
Sustainable educational management has emerged as a critical policy focus for maintaining educational continuity in times of crisis, while also optimizing resource efficiency and institutional resilience. In Pakistan, the fuel-saving strategies enacted during lockdowns have posed considerable difficulties for educational administration by interrupting instructional and learning processes. In light of this context, this research offers a scenario-based evaluation to investigate the impact of fuel conservation regulations on educational interruptions and to determine sustainable management techniques that enable continuous educational provision during emergencies. Based on relevant research, policy records, global crisis cases, and Pakistan’s educational structure, four possible outcomes include sudden disruption, persisting disparity, systemic instability, and adaptive resilience. The scenario analysis shows that digital and blended learning can help maintain continuity during brief interruptions. However, disparities in connectivity, devices, socioeconomic resources, and geographically diverse educational infrastructure may worsen inequalities. Disruptions may cause disengagement, learning deficits, dropout rates, and long-term effects on human capital, but timely institutional changes can improve educational resilience. The study shows that educational continuity depends on the duration, intensity, and government and institutional responses to interruptions. The study emphasizes the need for policymakers to prioritize affordable digital access, targeted help for at-risk learners, adaptive delivery modalities, and coherent crisis-management techniques. The study proposes a policy-focused scenario paradigm that links fuel-saving methods to sustainable educational governance and resilience in a developing country.
مدیریت پایدار آموزش به عنوان یکی از محورهای اساسی سیاستگذاری برای حفظ تداوم آموزشی در دوران بحران و همچنین بهینهسازی بهرهوری منابع و تابآوری نهادی مطرح شده است. در پاکستان، راهبردهای صرفهجویی در سوخت که در دوران قرنطینه اجرا شدهاند، با ایجاد اختلال در فرایندهای تدریس و یادگیری، مشکلات قابل توجهی را برای مدیریت آموزشی به وجود آوردهاند. در این زمینه، این پژوهش با ارائه ارزیابی مبتنی بر سناریو، به بررسی تأثیر مقررات صرفهجویی در سوخت بر اختلالات آموزشی و شناسایی راهکارهای مدیریت پایدار که امکان تداوم ارائه آموزش در شرایط اضطراری را فراهم میکنند، میپردازد. بر اساس پژوهشهای مرتبط، اسناد سیاستی، نمونههای جهانی بحران و ساختار آموزشی پاکستان، چهار پیامد محتمل شامل اختلال ناگهانی، تداوم نابرابری، بیثباتی نظاممند و تابآوری تطبیقی شناسایی شدهاند. تحلیل سناریو نشان میدهد که آموزش دیجیتال و ترکیبی میتواند در دورههای کوتاه اختلال، تداوم آموزشی را حفظ کند؛ با این حال، نابرابری در دسترسی به اینترنت، تجهیزات، منابع اقتصادی-اجتماعی و زیرساختهای آموزشی متنوع جغرافیایی ممکن است نابرابریها را تشدید کند. اختلالات میتواند منجر به کاهش مشارکت، کسری یادگیری، افزایش نرخ ترک تحصیل و آثار بلندمدت بر سرمایه انسانی شود، اما تغییرات نهادی به موقع میتواند تابآوری آموزشی را بهبود بخشد. یافتهها نشان میدهد که تداوم آموزش به مدت، شدت و واکنش دولت و نهادها نسبت به اختلالات بستگی دارد. این پژوهش بر ضرورت اولویتبخشی به دسترسی دیجیتال مقرونبهصرفه، حمایت هدفمند از دانشآموزان در معرض خطر، شیوههای ارائه تطبیقی و راهبردهای منسجم مدیریت بحران توسط سیاستگذاران تأکید میکند. این مطالعه، الگوی سناریومحور مبتنی بر سیاست را پیشنهاد میکند که روشهای صرفهجویی در سوخت را به حکمرانی پایدار آموزشی و تابآوری در یک کشور در حال توسعه پیوند میدهد.
Leadership plays a decisive role in the implementation of inclusive education at the school level. In this paper, we report on a small-scale, qualitative study which explored how the beliefs and actions of leadership teams at two mainstream schools in the Maldives influenced their efforts to provide a shared vision for inclusion and a positive culture across their school community. School selection was based on purposive sampling, with both schools being recognised for their good inclusive practice. Semi-structured interviews with the six leaders (the principal, deputy principal, and the leading teacher at each school) were used to capture personal beliefs, shared understandings and daily actions that promoted inclusion at the respective schools. Data analysis revealed two major themes: Access for learning and Building collaboration and partnerships through supportive leadership. While a sense of duty, strong desire and personal drive were common threads running across individual perspectives and themes, leaders signalled that a lack of resourcing (human and material) was a major obstacle to the successful implementation of inclusive education in their country.
رهبری نقش تعیینکنندهای در اجرای آموزش فراگیر در سطح مدرسه ایفا میکند. در این مقاله، گزارشی از یک مطالعه کیفی کوچکمقیاس ارائه میشود که به بررسی چگونگی تأثیر باورها و اقدامات تیمهای رهبری در دو مدرسه عادی در مالدیو بر تلاشهای آنها برای ارائه چشماندازی مشترک از فراگیری و ایجاد فرهنگی مثبت در جامعه مدرسهای خود پرداخته است. انتخاب مدارس بر اساس نمونهگیری هدفمند صورت گرفت و هر دو مدرسه به دلیل عملکرد مطلوب در زمینه فراگیری شناخته شده بودند. برای گردآوری دادهها، مصاحبههای نیمهساختاریافته با شش نفر از رهبران (مدیر، معاون و معلم ارشد هر مدرسه) انجام شد تا باورهای شخصی، درکهای مشترک و اقدامات روزمرهای که موجب ترویج فراگیری در مدارس مربوطه میشد، ثبت گردد. تحلیل دادهها دو مضمون اصلی را آشکار ساخت: دسترسی به یادگیری و ایجاد همکاری و مشارکت از طریق رهبری حمایتی. در حالی که حس وظیفه، تمایل قوی و انگیزه فردی از عناصر مشترک در دیدگاهها و مضامین بودند، رهبران اشاره کردند که کمبود منابع (انسانی و مادی) مانع عمدهای در اجرای موفق آموزش فراگیر در کشورشان بهشمار میرود.
Although school-community partnerships are crucial, the formalistic nature of community participation and power imbalances among actors often hinder quality management in religious-based schools. This study aims to analyze and describe in depth the patterns of involvement and the dynamics of synergy in the tripartite partnership (madrasah, committee, and community) in the quality management of educational services at Nurul Jadid Senior High School. This descriptive qualitative research, designed as a case study, collects data through in-depth interviews with key informants, limited participatory observation, and document analysis, then analyses it using the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldana. The research results show that the tripartite partnership at Nurul Jadid Senior High School transforms administrative functions into humanistic relations, grounded in the pesantren's social capital, through open madrasah management, the committee's role as a substantive dialogic partner, and participatory supervision by the community and alums outside the school environment. This synergy has created a sustainable, community-based quality assurance model in which meeting national education standards aligns with religious culture and stakeholder satisfaction.
اگرچه شراکت مدرسه و جامعه اهمیت زیادی دارد، اما ماهیت صوری مشارکت جامعه و عدم توازن قدرت میان بازیگران اغلب مانع مدیریت کیفیت در مدارس مبتنی بر مذهب میشود. هدف این پژوهش تحلیل و توصیف عمیق الگوهای مشارکت و پویایی همافزایی در شراکت سهجانبه (مدرسه، کمیته و جامعه) در مدیریت کیفیت خدمات آموزشی در دبیرستان نورالجدید است. این پژوهش کیفی توصیفی که به صورت مطالعه موردی طراحی شده است، دادهها را از طریق مصاحبههای عمیق با مطلعان کلیدی، مشاهده مشارکتی محدود و تحلیل اسناد گردآوری کرده و سپس با استفاده از مدل تعاملی Miles، Huberman و Saldana تحلیل میکند. نتایج پژوهش نشان میدهد که شراکت سهجانبه در دبیرستان نورالجدید، کارکردهای اداری را به روابط انسانی مبتنی بر سرمایه اجتماعی مدرسه علمیه تبدیل میکند؛ این امر از طریق مدیریت باز مدرسه، نقش کمیته به عنوان شریک دیالوژیک محتوایی و نظارت مشارکتی جامعه و فارغالتحصیلان خارج از محیط مدرسه تحقق یافته است. این همافزایی، مدل تضمین کیفیت پایدار مبتنی بر جامعه را ایجاد کرده است که در آن تحقق استانداردهای ملی آموزش با فرهنگ دینی و رضایت ذینفعان همسو میشود.
Teacher performance is a crucial factor in improving educational quality and is influenced by various individual and organizational factors. This study aims to analyze the effects of work–life balance, workload, and compensation on teacher performance at SMKN 1 Batu, as well as to examine the mediating role of compensation in these relationships. The study employed a quantitative approach using an associative research design. The sample consisted of 52 civil servant (ASN) and government contract (PPPK) teachers selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS). The findings indicate that work–life balance has a positive and significant effect on teacher performance, whereas workload has a negative and significant effect on teacher performance. Compensation also exerts a positive and significant influence on teacher performance. Furthermore, compensation significantly mediates the relationships between work–life balance and teacher performance as well as between workload and teacher performance. These findings suggest that maintaining a healthy work–life balance and managing workload proportionally can enhance teacher performance when supported by adequate compensation. The study highlights the importance of human resource management policies in schools that prioritize teacher well-being, balanced workload distribution, and fair and sustainable compensation systems to improve teacher performance and overall educational quality.
عملکرد معلمان عامل مهمی در ارتقای کیفیت آموزش است و تحت تأثیر عوامل فردی و سازمانی مختلف قرار میگیرد. هدف این پژوهش، تحلیل تأثیر تعادل کار و زندگی، بار کاری و جبران خدمت بر عملکرد معلمان در دبیرستان فنی حرفهای SMKN 1 Batu و همچنین بررسی نقش میانجی جبران خدمت در این روابط است. این مطالعه با رویکرد کمی و طرح پژوهش همبستگی انجام شده است. نمونه شامل ۵۲ معلم رسمی (ASN) و قراردادی دولت (PPPK) بود که به روش نمونهگیری هدفمند انتخاب شدند. دادهها با استفاده از پرسشنامه ساختاریافته جمعآوری و با روش مدلسازی معادلات ساختاری–کمترین مربعات جزئی (SEM-PLS) تحلیل شدند. یافتهها نشان داد که تعادل کار و زندگی تأثیر مثبت و معناداری بر عملکرد معلمان دارد، در حالی که بار کاری تأثیر منفی و معناداری بر عملکرد معلمان دارد. جبران خدمت نیز تأثیر مثبت و معناداری بر عملکرد معلمان دارد. علاوه بر این، جبران خدمت نقش میانجی معناداری در روابط بین تعادل کار و زندگی و عملکرد معلمان و همچنین بین بار کاری و عملکرد معلمان ایفا میکند. این یافتهها نشان میدهد که حفظ تعادل سالم بین کار و زندگی و مدیریت متناسب بار کاری، در صورت حمایت با جبران خدمت کافی، میتواند عملکرد معلمان را ارتقا دهد. این پژوهش بر اهمیت سیاستهای مدیریت منابع انسانی در مدارس که به بهزیستی معلمان، توزیع متعادل بار کاری و نظامهای جبران خدمت عادلانه و پایدار اولویت میدهند، برای بهبود عملکرد معلمان و کیفیت کلی آموزش تأکید میکند.
Indonesia is a country with a high level of disaster vulnerability, encompassing both natural and non-natural disasters, which necessitates the involvement of all elements of society in disaster management efforts. As the state ideology, Pancasila possesses values that are highly relevant to shaping societal attitudes and actions in facing disasters, particularly the values of humanity, unity, and mutual cooperation (gotong royong). This study aims to analyze the implementation of Pancasila values in disaster management in Indonesia, as well as to examine the manifestation of mutual cooperation and humanity within community life. This research employs a literature study method by reviewing various scholarly journals, books, and official sources relevant to Pancasila values and disaster management. The findings indicate that the implementation of Pancasila values can be manifested through care and concern for disaster victims, collaboration during evacuation and recovery processes, fair distribution of aid, and community participation in disaster mitigation efforts. The value of mutual cooperation encourages people to help one another regardless of background, while the value of humanity fosters compassion, empathy, and respect for the rights and safety of every individual. Thus, the application of Pancasila values in disaster management not only supports the disaster response process, but also strengthens social solidarity, unity, and the resilience of Indonesian society in facing various disaster threats.
اندونزی کشوری با سطح بالایی از آسیبپذیری در برابر بلایا است که شامل بلایای طبیعی و غیرطبیعی میشود و این امر مستلزم مشارکت همه عناصر جامعه در تلاشهای مدیریت بلایا است. پنجاصل به عنوان ایدئولوژی کشور، دارای ارزشهایی است که ارتباط زیادی با شکلدهی نگرشها و رفتارهای جامعه در مواجهه با بلایا، به ویژه ارزشهای انسانیت، وحدت و همکاری جمعی (گوتونگ رویونگ) دارد. هدف این پژوهش تحلیل اجرای ارزشهای پنجاصل در مدیریت بلایا در اندونزی و همچنین بررسی تجلی همکاری جمعی و انسانیت در زندگی اجتماعی است. این پژوهش با روش مطالعه کتابخانهای و مرور منابع علمی، کتابها و منابع رسمی مرتبط با ارزشهای پنجاصل و مدیریت بلایا انجام شده است. یافتهها نشان میدهد که اجرای ارزشهای پنجاصل میتواند از طریق مراقبت و توجه به قربانیان بلایا، همکاری در فرآیندهای تخلیه و بازسازی، توزیع عادلانه کمکها و مشارکت جامعه در اقدامات کاهش بلایا متجلی شود. ارزش همکاری جمعی مردم را به یاری یکدیگر بدون توجه به پیشینه تشویق میکند و ارزش انسانیت باعث پرورش شفقت، همدلی و احترام به حقوق و ایمنی هر فرد میشود. بنابراین، بهکارگیری ارزشهای پنجاصل در مدیریت بلایا نه تنها از فرآیند مقابله با بلایا حمایت میکند، بلکه همبستگی اجتماعی، وحدت و تابآوری جامعه اندونزی را در مواجهه با تهدیدهای مختلف بلایا تقویت میکند.

The discussion confirms that sound management from appropriate media selection and purposeful design to the implementation of planned strategies enhances learning effectiveness, motivates students, and supports the achievement of educational goals: establishing sound religious understanding and noble character.
مدیریت کیفی یادگیری در تعلیم و تربیت اسلامی مستلزم ادغام هماهنگ درک عمیق از مبانی توسعه رسانه، اصول طراحی نظاممند و راهبردهای ساختارمند یادگیری است. این مقاله چارچوبی برای مدیریت رسانههای آموزشی ارائه میدهد که مراحل برنامهریزی، توسعه، اجرا و ارزیابی را دربرمیگیرد. مفاهیم بنیادی توسعه رسانه بهعنوان پایهای برای تعیین انواع و اشکال مناسب رسانهها متناسب با اهداف یادگیری و ویژگیهای خاص محتوای تعلیم و تربیت اسلامی عمل میکنند. در عین حال، جنبههای طراحی نه تنها به ارائه مؤثر بلکه به انتقال ارزشهای اسلامی بهصورت شفاف، ساده و قابل فهم جهت داده میشوند. افزون بر این، راهبردهای مدیریتی به منظور سازماندهی نقش معلم، مشارکت فراگیران و استفاده بهینه از منابع برای ایجاد محیط یادگیری مساعد تدوین میشوند. بحث مقاله تأیید میکند که مدیریت صحیح از انتخاب مناسب رسانه و طراحی هدفمند تا اجرای راهبردهای برنامهریزیشده، اثربخشی یادگیری را افزایش داده، انگیزه دانشآموزان را تقویت میکند و تحقق اهداف آموزشی یعنی ایجاد درک صحیح دینی و پرورش شخصیت اخلاقی را حمایت میکند.
School management in an era of rapid change faces increasingly complex challenges. Schools are required to deliver measurable academic performance, meet quality standards, develop teacher competencies, adaptively utilize technology, and produce graduates capable of contributing to society. However, management orientations that rely too heavily on performance indicators, administrative efficiency, accreditation, and academic achievements risk overlooking the inner human dimension, the quality of relationships, moral values, the well-being of the school community, and the social impact of education. This article aims to reconstruct value-based education management through a Sufi perspective by developing a school governance model that integrates four key dimensions: performance, values, well-being, and social impact. The study employs a qualitative-conceptual approach, drawing on a literature review of Sufi thought, spiritual leadership, education management, learning organizations, distributed leadership, educator well-being, and leadership for social justice. The study yields the "Sufi School Governance Model," a framework that establishes tazkiyat al-nafs (purification of the soul), muraqabah (spiritual vigilance), amanah (trustworthiness), ihsan (excellence/spiritual sincerity), shūrā (consultation), ‘adl (justice), tawāḍu‘ (humility), mahabbah (love/compassion), and khidmah (service) as its foundational values; performance as the professional dimension; well-being as the human dimension; and social impact as the orientation toward the common good. This model operates through a cycle of niyyah (intention) tazkiyah (purification) amanah (trust) shūrā (consultation) ihsan (excellence) khidmah (service) muḥāsabah (self-reflection) iṣlāḥ (reform), which translates into planning, organizing, leadership, human resource development, supervision, evaluation, and continuous improvement. This reconstruction positions the school principal not merely as an administrator, but as a murabbī (spiritual educator/mentor), khādim (servant-leader), and uswah (role model), while the school itself is positioned as a community for learning, character building, well-being, and social transformation. This model offers an expanded definition of school success, moving beyond mere "school performance" toward performance that is meaningful, ethical, human-centered, and socially impactful
مدیریت مدرسه در عصر تغییرات سریع با چالشهای فزاینده و پیچیدهای مواجه است. مدارس ملزم به ارائه عملکرد تحصیلی قابل سنجش، رعایت استانداردهای کیفیت، توسعه شایستگیهای معلمان، بهرهبرداری تطبیقی از فناوری و تربیت فارغالتحصیلانی هستند که قادر به مشارکت در جامعه باشند. با این حال، رویکردهای مدیریتی که بیش از حد بر شاخصهای عملکرد، کارآمدی اداری، اعتباربخشی و دستاوردهای علمی تکیه دارند، در معرض نادیده گرفتن بُعد درونی انسان، کیفیت روابط، ارزشهای اخلاقی، بهزیستی جامعه مدرسه و تأثیر اجتماعی آموزش قرار دارند. این مقاله با هدف بازسازی مدیریت آموزش مبتنی بر ارزشها از منظر تصوف، به توسعه یک مدل حکمرانی مدرسه میپردازد که چهار بُعد کلیدی عملکرد، ارزشها، بهزیستی و تأثیر اجتماعی را ادغام میکند. این پژوهش با رویکرد کیفی ـ مفهومی و با تکیه بر مرور ادبیات اندیشه صوفیانه، رهبری معنوی، مدیریت آموزشی، سازمانهای یادگیرنده، رهبری توزیعی، بهزیستی معلمان و رهبری برای عدالت اجتماعی انجام شده است. نتیجه این پژوهش، «مدل حکمرانی مدرسه صوفیانه» است؛ چارچوبی که تزکیهالنفس (پاکسازی نفس)، مراقبه (نظارت معنوی)، امانت (امانتداری)، احسان (برتری/اخلاص معنوی)، شورا (مشورت)، عدل (عدالت)، تواضع (فروتنی)، محبت (عشق/دلسوزی) و خدمت (خدمترسانی) را به عنوان ارزشهای بنیادین خود قرار میدهد؛ عملکرد را به عنوان بُعد حرفهای، بهزیستی را به عنوان بُعد انسانی و تأثیر اجتماعی را به عنوان جهتگیری به سوی خیر عمومی تعریف میکند. این مدل از طریق چرخه نیت (نیت)، تزکیه (پاکسازی)، امانت (اعتماد)، شورا (مشورت)، احسان (برتری)، خدمت (خدمترسانی)، محاسبه (خودارزیابی) و اصلاح (اصلاح) عمل میکند که به برنامهریزی، سازماندهی، رهبری، توسعه منابع انسانی، نظارت، ارزیابی و بهبود مستمر ترجمه میشود. این بازسازی، مدیر مدرسه را نه صرفاً به عنوان یک مدیر، بلکه به عنوان مربی (مربی معنوی/راهنما)، خادم (رهبر خدمتگزار) و اسوه (الگو) معرفی میکند و خود مدرسه را به عنوان جامعهای برای یادگیری، پرورش شخصیت، بهزیستی و تحول اجتماعی جایگاه میبخشد. این مدل، تعریف گستردهتری از موفقیت مدرسه ارائه میدهد و فراتر از صرفاً «عملکرد مدرسه»، به سوی عملکردی معنادار، اخلاقی، انسانمحور و دارای تأثیر اجتماعی حرکت میکند.
Background Therapeutic Physical Activity (TPA) is an unaddressed behavioral recreational method in anger management programs in higher education in Egypt, especially among students with physical disabilities (SWPD). Purpose This study aimed to assess the efficacy of an 8-week TPA intervention on the severity of anger in male university students with physical disabilities in Egypt. Methods A randomized controlled trial (RCT) design (parallel-group) was used with 140 male undergraduate students at Minia University who were randomly divided into an 8-week TPA group ( n = 70) and a treatment-as-usual (TAU) control group ( n = 70). Severity of anger was measured at baseline and at the end of the intervention with the PROMIS Anger Short Form 8a. Results There was a clinically significant and statistically significant difference between the TPA and controls in the severity of anger, F (1, 137) = 48.62, p < 0.001, partial η 2 = 0.262, with a mean difference of −10.42 T-score points (95% CI: −13.48, −7.36) greater than the MCID. Reductions in anger were not associated with physical functioning changes, indicating non-physiological mechanisms. Moderately positive relationships were found between adherence and anger reduction (r = 0.42; p < 0.001), and sensitivity analyses showed that the results were consistent across disability severity. Conclusion TPA is a culturally affirming, body-based, anger-management approach that incorporates adaptive sports and behavioral learning for SWPD emotion regulation. Therapeutic recreation may be implemented as a low-stigma, easy-to-access supplemental mental health support program in the University disability services, especially for male students in collectivist contexts.
زمینه: فعالیت بدنی درمانی (TPA) روشی رفتاری و تفریحی است که در برنامههای مدیریت خشم در آموزش عالی مصر، بهویژه در میان دانشجویان دارای معلولیت جسمی (SWPD)، مورد توجه قرار نگرفته است. هدف: این مطالعه با هدف ارزیابی اثربخشی یک مداخله TPA هشتهفتهای بر شدت خشم در دانشجویان پسر دانشگاهی دارای معلولیت جسمی در مصر انجام شد. روشها: طرح کارآزمایی تصادفیشدهی کنترلشده (RCT) با گروههای موازی با حضور ۱۴۰ دانشجوی پسر مقطع کارشناسی در دانشگاه Minia اجرا شد که بهطور تصادفی به دو گروه TPA هشتهفتهای (n = 70) و گروه کنترل با درمان معمول (TAU) (n = 70) تقسیم شدند. شدت خشم در آغاز و پایان مداخله با فرم کوتاه خشم PROMIS Anger Short Form 8a سنجیده شد. یافتهها: تفاوت معنادار بالینی و آماری بین گروه TPA و کنترلها در شدت خشم مشاهده شد، F (1, 137) = 48.62, p < 0.001, partial η2 = 0.262، با اختلاف میانگین −10.42 امتیاز T-score (95% CI: −13.48, −7.36) که بیش از MCID بود. کاهش خشم با تغییرات عملکرد جسمانی ارتباطی نداشت و این امر نشاندهنده وجود سازوکارهای غیر فیزیولوژیک است. روابط مثبت متوسطی بین پایبندی به مداخله و کاهش خشم (r = 0.42; p < 0.001) یافت شد و تحلیل حساسیت نشان داد که نتایج در سطوح مختلف شدت معلولیت یکسان است. نتیجهگیری: TPA رویکردی مبتنی بر بدن و تأییدکننده فرهنگی برای مدیریت خشم است که ورزشهای تطبیقی و یادگیری رفتاری را برای تنظیم هیجان SWPD ادغام میکند. تفریحات درمانی میتواند بهعنوان برنامه حمایتی سلامت روان با برچسبگذاری پایین و دسترسی آسان در خدمات معلولیت دانشگاه، بهویژه برای دانشجویان پسر در زمینههای جمعگرا، اجرا شود.
Background Diabetes self-management requires consistent daily behaviors. Social jetlag, the mismatch between workday and free-day sleep timing, may disrupt daily behavior routines. This study examined the association between social jetlag and self-management in adults with type 2 diabetes (T2D), and whether sleep quality and depressive symptoms statistically accounted for portions of this association. Methods This cross-sectional study recruited employed adults aged 18–60 years with T2D from the endocrinology departments of three tertiary public general hospitals in Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, China, from January to April 2026. Social jetlag was calculated from the micro Munich Chronotype Questionnaire; sleep quality, depressive symptoms, and diabetes self-management were assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, Patient Health Questionnaire-9, and Summary of Diabetes Self-Care Activities, respectively. Multivariable linear regression and serial mediation analysis with 5,000 bootstrap resamples were performed. Results A total of 339 participants were analyzed. Each additional h of social jetlag was associated with higher PSQI score ( B = 1.352, 95% CI 1.042 to 1.663), higher PHQ-9 score ( B = 3.772, 95% CI 3.314 to 4.229), and lower SDSCA score ( B = −6.623, 95% CI −7.566 to −5.679). The direct association remained significant after PSQI and PHQ-9 scores were included ( B = −3.830, 95% CI −5.048 to −2.611). The specific indirect association through depressive symptoms alone was −2.230 (95% bootstrap CI −3.053 to −1.469), and the serial indirect association through sleep quality and depressive symptoms was −0.314 (95% bootstrap CI −0.534 to −0.150). Conclusion Greater social jetlag was associated with poorer diabetes self-management. Significant indirect associations were observed through depressive symptoms alone and through the serial pathway from sleep quality to depressive symptoms. These associations do not establish temporal ordering or causal mediation because the data were cross-sectional.
زمینه و هدف: خودمدیریتی دیابت نیازمند رفتارهای روزانه منظم است. جتلگ اجتماعی، که به عدم تطابق زمان خواب در روزهای کاری و تعطیل اشاره دارد، ممکن است روالهای رفتاری روزانه را مختل کند. این مطالعه ارتباط بین جتلگ اجتماعی و خودمدیریتی در بزرگسالان مبتلا به دیابت نوع ۲ (T2D) و همچنین نقش کیفیت خواب و علائم افسردگی به عنوان عوامل تبیینکننده بخشی از این ارتباط را بررسی کرد. روشها: این مطالعه مقطعی، بزرگسالان شاغل ۱۸ تا ۶۰ ساله مبتلا به T2D را از بخشهای غدد سه بیمارستان عمومی سطح سوم در منطقه خودمختار نینگشیا هوی، چین، از ژانویه تا آوریل ۲۰۲۶ جذب کرد. جتلگ اجتماعی با استفاده از پرسشنامه Micro Munich Chronotype Questionnaire محاسبه شد؛ کیفیت خواب، علائم افسردگی و خودمدیریتی دیابت بهترتیب با شاخص کیفیت خواب پیتسبورگ، پرسشنامه سلامت بیمار-۹ (PHQ-9) و خلاصه فعالیتهای مراقبت از دیابت (SDSCA) ارزیابی شدند. رگرسیون خطی چندمتغیره و تحلیل میانجیگری زنجیرهای با ۵۰۰۰ بازنمونهگیری بوتاسترپ انجام شد. یافتهها: مجموعاً ۳۳۹ شرکتکننده مورد تحلیل قرار گرفتند. هر ساعت افزایش جتلگ اجتماعی با نمره بالاتر PSQI (B = 1.352، فاصله اطمینان ۹۵٪: 1.042 تا 1.663)، نمره بالاتر PHQ-9 (B = 3.772، فاصله اطمینان ۹۵٪: 3.314 تا 4.229) و نمره پایینتر SDSCA (B = −6.623، فاصله اطمینان ۹۵٪: −7.566 تا −5.679) همراه بود. ارتباط مستقیم پس از وارد کردن نمرات PSQI و PHQ-9 همچنان معنادار باقی ماند (B = −3.830، فاصله اطمینان ۹۵٪: −5.048 تا −2.611). ارتباط غیرمستقیم خاص از طریق علائم افسردگی به تنهایی برابر با −2.230 (فاصله اطمینان بوتاسترپ ۹۵٪: −3.053 تا −1.469) و ارتباط غیرمستقیم زنجیرهای از طریق کیفیت خواب و علائم افسردگی برابر با −0.314 (فاصله اطمینان بوتاسترپ ۹۵٪: −0.534 تا −0.150) بود. نتیجهگیری: جتلگ اجتماعی بیشتر با خودمدیریتی ضعیفتر دیابت همراه بود. ارتباطات غیرمستقیم معناداری از طریق علائم افسردگی به تنهایی و همچنین از طریق مسیر زنجیرهای کیفیت خواب تا علائم افسردگی مشاهده شد. این ارتباطات به دلیل مقطعی بودن دادهها، ترتیب زمانی یا میانجیگری علّی را اثبات نمیکنند.
Background Past research has consistently demonstrated that cisnormative pressures impact on the wellbeing of transgender and non-binary (TGNB) individuals, but questions remain about TGNB young adults’ experiences of ‘obligation’ in light of transnormative pressures.Aims The aim of the current study was therefore to explore experiences of obligation among TGNB young adults and identify what aspects of life may be reinforcing these obligations.Methods Seven focus groups were conducted with a total of 24 TGNB young adults with varying genders to hear their experiences of obligations.Results Reflexive thematic analysis resulted in four themes describing the nature of obligation for TGNB young adults. The first theme covers the obligation to be a ‘good’ TGNB person, including two subthemes about being ‘good’ by meeting everyone’s expectations and being ‘good’ by being polite and palatable. The second theme describes obligations related to fulfilling multiple roles, including intersectionality with culture. The third theme addresses participants’ experiences of feeling required to be the expert on TGNB topics. The fourth theme covers the obligation to accept conflicting narratives about TGNB journeys where TGNB individuals may passively uphold transnormative stereotypes but also actively manage how they are perceived by others.Conclusions These findings demonstrate specific experiences of obligation unique to TGNB individuals, highlighting the interconnected external and internal nature of these obligations. This research also highlights how these obligations are reinforced by the negative societal views of TGNB identities, transnormative ideals, and perceived homogeneity of TGNB community members.
زمینه: پژوهشهای پیشین به طور مداوم نشان دادهاند که فشارهای سیسنورماتیو بر سلامت روان افراد ترنسجندر و غیردودویی (TGNB) تأثیر میگذارد، اما همچنان پرسشهایی درباره تجارب بزرگسالان جوان TGNB از «احساس الزام» در پرتو فشارهای ترنسنورماتیو باقی مانده است. اهداف: هدف مطالعه حاضر، بررسی تجارب الزام در میان بزرگسالان جوان TGNB و شناسایی جنبههایی از زندگی بود که ممکن است این الزامات را تقویت کنند. روشها: هفت گروه متمرکز با مجموع ۲۴ بزرگسال جوان TGNB با جنسیتهای متنوع برگزار شد تا تجارب آنها از الزامات شنیده شود. نتایج: تحلیل تماتیک بازتابی منجر به استخراج چهار تم درباره ماهیت الزام برای بزرگسالان جوان TGNB شد. تم اول به الزام برای «خوب» بودن به عنوان یک فرد TGNB میپردازد که شامل دو زیرتم درباره خوب بودن از طریق برآورده کردن انتظارات همه و خوب بودن از طریق مؤدب و پذیرفتنی بودن است. تم دوم به الزامات مرتبط با ایفای نقشهای متعدد، از جمله تلاقی با فرهنگ، اشاره دارد. تم سوم به تجارب شرکتکنندگان درباره احساس نیاز به متخصص بودن در موضوعات TGNB میپردازد. تم چهارم به الزام برای پذیرش روایتهای متضاد درباره مسیرهای TGNB اشاره دارد، جایی که افراد TGNB ممکن است به طور منفعلانه کلیشههای ترنسنورماتیو را حفظ کنند اما همزمان به طور فعال نحوه درک دیگران از خود را مدیریت نمایند. نتیجهگیری: این یافتهها تجارب خاص الزام را که منحصر به افراد TGNB است نشان میدهد و بر ماهیت درهمتنیده بیرونی و درونی این الزامات تأکید میکند. این پژوهش همچنین نشان میدهد که این الزامات توسط دیدگاههای منفی جامعه نسبت به هویتهای TGNB، ایدهآلهای ترنسنورماتیو و برداشت از همگنی اعضای جامعه TGNB تقویت میشوند.
This study examined the transformational leadership styles of secondary school administrators and their relationship with teachers’ self-efficacy in Balamban District I during School Year 2025–2026 as a basis for developing a Leadership Enhancement Program. Employing a descriptive-correlational research design, the study involved 65 secondary school teachers selected as respondents. Data were collected using standardized instruments, namely the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ Form 5X) and the Teachers’ Sense of Efficacy Scale (TSES Long Form). Statistical analyses included frequency, percentage, weighted mean, standard deviation, and Pearson correlation. Findings revealed that most respondents were female, married, experienced teachers handling English and Mathematics, and had pursued graduate education. School administrators demonstrated high levels of transformational leadership, particularly in idealized influence, inspirational motivation, intellectual stimulation, contingent reward, effectiveness, satisfaction, and extra effort. Conversely, laissez-faire leadership and passive management practices received low ratings. Teachers exhibited high self-efficacy in student engagement, instructional strategies, and classroom management. Correlation analysis revealed a low but statistically significant positive relationship between transformational leadership and teachers’ self-efficacy (ρ = 0.293, p = 0.018). Specifically, idealized influence, intellectual stimulation, and contingent reward demonstrated significant associations with teachers’ self-efficacy. The findings suggest that effective transformational leadership practices are associated with greater teacher confidence in fulfilling instructional responsibilities and managing classroom environments. Consequently, a Leadership Enhancement Program was proposed to strengthen administrators’ leadership competencies, promote supportive educational environments, and further enhance teachers’ professional effectiveness and self-efficacy across secondary schools within Balamban District I.
این پژوهش به بررسی سبکهای رهبری تحولآفرین مدیران مدارس متوسطه و رابطه آن با خودکارآمدی معلمان در ناحیه اول بالامبان طی سال تحصیلی ۲۰۲۵–۲۰۲۶ بهعنوان مبنایی برای تدوین برنامه ارتقای رهبری پرداخت. این مطالعه با بهرهگیری از طرح پژوهش توصیفی-همبستگی و با مشارکت ۶۵ معلم مدارس متوسطه که بهعنوان پاسخدهنده انتخاب شدند، انجام شد. دادهها با استفاده از ابزارهای استاندارد، شامل پرسشنامه چندعاملی رهبری (MLQ Form 5X) و مقیاس احساس خودکارآمدی معلمان (TSES Long Form) گردآوری شد. تحلیلهای آماری شامل فراوانی، درصد، میانگین وزنی، انحراف معیار و همبستگی پیرسون بود. یافتهها نشان داد که اکثر پاسخدهندگان زن، متأهل، معلمان با تجربه در تدریس زبان انگلیسی و ریاضیات و دارای تحصیلات تکمیلی بودند. مدیران مدارس سطوح بالایی از رهبری تحولآفرین، بهویژه در نفوذ آرمانی، انگیزش الهامبخش، تحریک فکری، پاداش مشروط، اثربخشی، رضایت و تلاش مضاعف از خود نشان دادند. در مقابل، رهبری عدم مداخله و شیوههای مدیریت منفعل امتیاز پایینی کسب کردند. معلمان در ابعاد مشارکت دانشآموزان، راهبردهای آموزشی و مدیریت کلاس، خودکارآمدی بالایی از خود نشان دادند. تحلیل همبستگی نشان داد که بین رهبری تحولآفرین و خودکارآمدی معلمان رابطه مثبت اما ضعیف و معناداری وجود دارد (ρ = 0.293, p = 0.018). به طور خاص، نفوذ آرمانی، تحریک فکری و پاداش مشروط با خودکارآمدی معلمان ارتباط معناداری داشتند. یافتهها حاکی از آن است که شیوههای مؤثر رهبری تحولآفرین با افزایش اعتماد به نفس معلمان در انجام مسئولیتهای آموزشی و مدیریت محیط کلاس مرتبط است. بر این اساس، برنامه ارتقای رهبری به منظور تقویت شایستگیهای رهبری مدیران، ارتقای محیطهای آموزشی حمایتی و افزایش اثربخشی حرفهای و خودکارآمدی معلمان در مدارس متوسطه ناحیه اول بالامبان پیشنهاد شد.
Introduction This study examined the association between future anxiety and psychological wellbeing, the indirect association through mental toughness, and the joint moderating role of age and family economic status in the relationship between future anxiety and mental toughness among sport management students. Methods A cross-sectional correlational design was used with 367 students enrolled in sport management departments at four public universities in Türkiye. Data were collected using the Future Anxiety Scale for University Students, the Mental Toughness Inventory, and the Psychological Wellbeing Scale. Pearson correlation, observed-variable path analysis, and three-way interaction analysis were conducted. Results Future anxiety was negatively associated with psychological wellbeing ( r = −0.40, p < 0.001) and mental toughness ( r = −0.35, p < 0.001), whereas mental toughness was positively associated with psychological wellbeing ( r = 0.75, p < 0.001). The indirect association between future anxiety and psychological wellbeing through mental toughness was statistically significant ( β = −0.240, 95% BCa bootstrap CI [−0.336, −0.160]), while the direct association remained significant ( β = −0.165, p < 0.001), indicating that mental toughness accounted for part of the association. The three-way interaction among future anxiety, age, and family economic status was statistically significant in predicting mental toughness ( B = 0.550, p = 0.006). Future anxiety was negatively associated with mental toughness across all age and family economic status groups. The largest observed negative slope was found among students aged 22 years or older whose family income was lower than their family expenses ( B = −0.620, p < 0.001), whereas the smallest observed negative slope was found among students aged 18–21 years in the same economic group ( B = −0.180, p = 0.041). Discussion These findings identify mental toughness as an important psychological resource associated with psychological wellbeing and indicate that age and family economic status jointly condition the strength of the relationship between future anxiety and mental toughness. Given the cross-sectional design, the findings should be interpreted as statistical associations rather than evidence of causal relationships.
مقدمه: این مطالعه به بررسی ارتباط بین اضطراب آینده و بهزیستی روانشناختی، ارتباط غیرمستقیم از طریق سرسختی روانی، و نقش تعدیلکننده مشترک سن و وضعیت اقتصادی خانواده در رابطه بین اضطراب آینده و سرسختی روانی در میان دانشجویان مدیریت ورزشی پرداخت. روشها: طرح پژوهش مقطعی همبستگی با مشارکت ۳۶۷ دانشجو از گروههای مدیریت ورزشی چهار دانشگاه دولتی در ترکیه اجرا شد. دادهها با استفاده از مقیاس اضطراب آینده برای دانشجویان دانشگاه، فهرست سرسختی روانی و مقیاس بهزیستی روانشناختی گردآوری شد. همبستگی پیرسون، تحلیل مسیر متغیر مشاهدهشده و تحلیل تعامل سهگانه انجام گرفت. یافتهها: اضطراب آینده با بهزیستی روانشناختی (r = −0.40, p < 0.001) و سرسختی روانی (r = −0.35, p < 0.001) رابطه منفی داشت، در حالی که سرسختی روانی با بهزیستی روانشناختی رابطه مثبت نشان داد (r = 0.75, p < 0.001). ارتباط غیرمستقیم بین اضطراب آینده و بهزیستی روانشناختی از طریق سرسختی روانی از لحاظ آماری معنادار بود (β = −0.240, 95% BCa bootstrap CI [−0.336, −0.160])، در حالی که ارتباط مستقیم نیز معنادار باقی ماند (β = −0.165, p < 0.001)، که نشان میدهد سرسختی روانی بخشی از این ارتباط را تبیین میکند. تعامل سهگانه بین اضطراب آینده، سن و وضعیت اقتصادی خانواده در پیشبینی سرسختی روانی از لحاظ آماری معنادار بود (B = 0.550, p = 0.006). اضطراب آینده در تمامی گروههای سنی و وضعیت اقتصادی خانواده با سرسختی روانی رابطه منفی داشت. بیشترین شیب منفی مشاهدهشده در میان دانشجویان ۲۲ سال و بالاتر با درآمد خانوادگی کمتر از هزینههای خانواده بود (B = −0.620, p < 0.001)، در حالی که کمترین شیب منفی در میان دانشجویان ۱۸ تا ۲۱ سال در همان گروه اقتصادی مشاهده شد (B = −0.180, p = 0.041). بحث: این یافتهها سرسختی روانی را به عنوان یک منبع روانشناختی مهم مرتبط با بهزیستی روانشناختی معرفی میکند و نشان میدهد که سن و وضعیت اقتصادی خانواده به طور مشترک شدت رابطه بین اضطراب آینده و سرسختی روانی را مشروط میکنند. با توجه به طرح مقطعی پژوهش، یافتهها باید به عنوان ارتباطات آماری تفسیر شوند و نه شواهدی برای روابط علّی.
This study assessed the management of educational resources in four Mathematics, Science, and Technology Academy (MSTA) sub-hub schools in Mpumalanga, as well as their use in teaching and learning. While these schools are well-resourced, it is unclear how these resources are managed and used. It is critical to provide answers to this issue, considering that MSTA is a specialised project that seeks to support teaching and learning. The focus in this study was on science. Four MSTA-designated schools participated in the study, represented by one principal and one departmental head per school, as well as four teachers from School A, two from School B, three from School C, and two from School D, giving a total of 19 participants who were conveniently available to participate in focus group interviews (FGIs) in 2022 and 2023. One teacher teaching science to eleventh and twelfth graders was also observed in both years through non-participant observation. Inductive analysis was conducted, resulting in two emergent themes: resource availability and its use for teaching and learning, and the management and maintenance of resources. The findings showed that the schools were reasonably well-resourced. However, the management, use, and maintenance of these resources varied across the schools, showing effectiveness as well as some flaws.
این مطالعه به ارزیابی مدیریت منابع آموزشی در چهار مدرسه زیرمجموعه آکادمی ریاضیات، علوم و فناوری (MSTA) در امپومالانگا و همچنین نحوه استفاده از این منابع در آموزش و یادگیری پرداخت. اگرچه این مدارس از نظر منابع وضعیت مناسبی دارند، اما نحوه مدیریت و استفاده از این منابع مشخص نیست. پاسخ به این مسئله با توجه به اینکه MSTA یک پروژه تخصصی با هدف حمایت از آموزش و یادگیری است، اهمیت دارد. تمرکز این پژوهش بر حوزه علوم بوده است. چهار مدرسه تعیینشده توسط MSTA در این مطالعه شرکت کردند که هر یک توسط یک مدیر و یک رئیس بخش و همچنین چهار معلم از مدرسه A، دو معلم از مدرسه B، سه معلم از مدرسه C و دو معلم از مدرسه D نمایندگی میشدند؛ در مجموع ۱۹ نفر که به صورت در دسترس در مصاحبههای گروهی متمرکز (FGIs) در سالهای ۲۰۲۲ و ۲۰۲۳ شرکت کردند. همچنین یک معلم که به دانشآموزان پایه یازدهم و دوازدهم علوم تدریس میکرد، در هر دو سال از طریق مشاهده غیرمشارکتی مورد بررسی قرار گرفت. تحلیل استقرایی انجام شد که منجر به ظهور دو مضمون اصلی گردید: دسترسی به منابع و استفاده از آنها در آموزش و یادگیری، و مدیریت و نگهداری منابع. یافتهها نشان داد که مدارس از نظر منابع وضعیت نسبتاً مناسبی دارند، اما مدیریت، استفاده و نگهداری این منابع در مدارس مختلف متفاوت بوده و هم اثربخشی و هم برخی کاستیها را نشان میدهد.
Background Refugee youth are at elevated risk for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and other mental health disorders, yet systemic and cultural barriers limit access to care. Scalable, transdiagnostic interventions such as Problem Management Plus (PM+) are promising, but their impact on trauma symptoms is modest. Incorporating brief trauma-focused components may enhance effectiveness. Aims To evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of PM+ with an emotional processing module (PM+EP) for refugee youth aged 16–25 years in the Netherlands. Method Refugee youth with elevated psychological distress (K10 > 15) and impaired functioning (World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule 2.0 (WHODAS 2.0) > 16) were randomised into PM+EP, PM+ with supportive counselling (PM+SC), or care as usual (CAU). Feasibility and acceptability were assessed via recruitment, adherence, fidelity and qualitative interviews. Psychological distress, PTSD symptoms, functioning and self-identified problems were measured at baseline, post-intervention and follow-up. Registered in Overview of Medical Research in the Netherlands (OMON; Trial ID: NL-OMON56254). Results Fifty-two participants were randomised (PM+EP: n = 17; PM+SC: n = 19; CAU: n = 16). Attendance and fidelity were high, and PM+ interventions were rated as acceptable and culturally appropriate. No significant between-group differences were observed in the primary analyses. Exploratory analyses suggested greater short-term symptom reduction for probable depression in PM+EP versus CAU ( b = –0.79, s.e. = 0.38, p = 0.04). Effect size estimates ranged from small to large across outcomes (Hedges’ g = –0.98 to 0.19). Conclusions PM+ is feasible, acceptable and safe for refugee youth aged 16 years and older. The potential added value of the EP module remains unclear and warrants further investigation. Trial Registration Number The trial was registered in the Dutch clinical trial registration: Overview of Medical Research in the Netherlands (OMON) (Trial ID: NL-OMON56254; https://onderzoekmetmensen.nl/en/trial/56254 ).
زمینه: جوانان پناهنده در معرض خطر بالاتر ابتلا به اختلال استرس پس از سانحه (PTSD) و سایر اختلالات سلامت روان قرار دارند، اما موانع نظاممند و فرهنگی دسترسی به مراقبت را محدود میکند. مداخلات مقیاسپذیر و فراتشخیصی مانند مدیریت مسئله پلاس (PM+) امیدبخش هستند، اما تأثیر آنها بر علائم تروما متوسط است. افزودن مؤلفههای کوتاهمدت متمرکز بر تروما ممکن است اثربخشی را افزایش دهد. اهداف: ارزیابی امکانسنجی و پذیرش مدیریت مسئله پلاس بههمراه ماژول پردازش هیجانی (PM+EP) برای جوانان پناهنده ۱۶ تا ۲۵ ساله در هلند. روش: جوانان پناهنده با پریشانی روانشناختی بالا (K10 > 15) و اختلال عملکرد (World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule 2.0 (WHODAS 2.0) > 16) بهصورت تصادفی در گروههای PM+EP، PM+ بههمراه مشاوره حمایتی (PM+SC)، یا مراقبت معمول (CAU) قرار گرفتند. امکانسنجی و پذیرش از طریق جذب، پایبندی، وفاداری و مصاحبههای کیفی ارزیابی شد. پریشانی روانشناختی، علائم PTSD، عملکرد و مشکلات شناساییشده توسط خود شرکتکنندگان در خط پایه، پس از مداخله و پیگیری اندازهگیری شد. این مطالعه در سامانهی Overview of Medical Research in the Netherlands (OMON؛ شمارهی کارآزمایی: NL-OMON56254) ثبت شده است. نتایج: پنجاهودو شرکتکننده بهصورت تصادفی تخصیص یافتند (PM+EP: n = 17؛ PM+SC: n = 19؛ CAU: n = 16). حضور و وفاداری بالا بود و مداخلات PM+ بهعنوان قابل پذیرش و مناسب از نظر فرهنگی ارزیابی شدند. در تحلیلهای اصلی، تفاوت معناداری بین گروهها مشاهده نشد. تحلیلهای اکتشافی کاهش علائم کوتاهمدت بیشتر برای افسردگی محتمل در گروه PM+EP نسبت به CAU را نشان داد (b = –0.79، s.e. = 0.38، p = 0.04). برآوردهای اندازهی اثر در نتایج مختلف از کوچک تا بزرگ متغیر بود (Hedges’ g = –0.98 تا 0.19). نتیجهگیری: PM+ برای جوانان پناهنده ۱۶ ساله و بالاتر امکانپذیر، قابل پذیرش و ایمن است. ارزش افزودهی بالقوهی ماژول EP همچنان نامشخص است و نیازمند بررسی بیشتر میباشد. شمارهی ثبت کارآزمایی: این کارآزمایی در ثبت کارآزمایی بالینی هلند: Overview of Medical Research in the Netherlands (OMON) (شمارهی کارآزمایی: NL-OMON56254؛ https://onderzoekmetmensen.nl/en/trial/56254 ) ثبت شده است.
Leadership coaching develops managers but is expensive and difficult to scale. AI may be able to help scale access, but “answering machine” like AI coaching agents invite cognitive offloading and weaken learning. We instantiated a human coaching protocol, supported across prior cycles, as a text-based AI coach built to prompt reflective questioning. In the fourth cycle of a design-based research program at a global consulting firm, eight managers received the same protocol from a human coach and the AI coach, applied each session in an observed onboarding activity, and reflected on both in interviews. All eight welcomed the probing questions and preferred the human coach. Notably, they resisted the same protocol of questioning from the AI coach and wanted answers from it instead. This study’s theoretical contribution is the Reflection Penalty, the cost an AI coach pays for asking a user to do the reflective work that makes human coaching effective. Its practical contribution is a jobs-to-be-done map for AI coaching, assembled from proposals participants raised on their own. It divides coaching into distinct jobs and assigns each to the human or the AI best suited to it. Both contributions are offered to those designing AI tools that aim to support reflection
مربیگری رهبری به توسعهٔ مدیران کمک میکند اما پرهزینه و دشوار برای مقیاسپذیری است. هوش مصنوعی ممکن است بتواند دسترسی را مقیاسپذیر کند، اما عاملهای مربیگری مبتنی بر هوش مصنوعی که شبیه «دستگاه پاسخگو» عمل میکنند، منجر به واگذاری شناختی و تضعیف یادگیری میشوند. ما یک پروتکل مربیگری انسانی را که در چرخههای قبلی پشتیبانی شده بود، بهصورت یک مربی مبتنی بر متن با هدف پرسشگری تأملی بهعنوان مربی هوش مصنوعی پیادهسازی کردیم. در چهارمین چرخهٔ یک برنامهٔ پژوهش مبتنی بر طراحی در یک شرکت مشاورهٔ جهانی، هشت مدیر همان پروتکل را از یک مربی انسانی و مربی هوش مصنوعی دریافت کردند، هر جلسه را در یک فعالیت مشاهدهشدهٔ آشنایی به کار بردند و در مصاحبهها دربارهٔ هر دو تأمل کردند. هر هشت نفر پرسشهای عمیق را پذیرفتند و مربی انسانی را ترجیح دادند. به طور قابل توجهی، آنها در برابر همان پروتکل پرسشگری از سوی مربی هوش مصنوعی مقاومت کردند و به جای آن خواهان دریافت پاسخ از آن بودند. سهم نظری این مطالعه «جریمهٔ تأمل» است؛ هزینهای که یک مربی هوش مصنوعی برای واداشتن کاربر به انجام کار تأملی که مربیگری انسانی را مؤثر میکند، میپردازد. سهم عملی آن نقشهای از وظایف قابل انجام برای مربیگری هوش مصنوعی است که از پیشنهادهای مطرحشده توسط شرکتکنندگان گردآوری شده است. این نقشه مربیگری را به وظایف متمایز تقسیم میکند و هر یک را به انسان یا هوش مصنوعی که برای آن مناسبتر است، اختصاص میدهد. هر دو سهم به طراحان ابزارهای هوش مصنوعی که هدف آنها حمایت از تأمل است، ارائه میشود.
Stroboscopic light stimulation (SLS) reliably evokes geometric visual hallucinations and, in some contexts, altered-state experiences. Its increasing use in research, public, recreational and exploratory clinical settings creates a need for proportionate safety guidance. The main concern is a visually triggered seizure in a susceptible individual; reported non-epileptic responses include discomfort or distress. We combined a retrospective survey of safety practices and reported events across four laboratories, provider-reported operational data from two commercial SLS platforms, and a focused review of photosensitivity and sensory intolerance. Laboratory contributors reported 20 non-serious events that interrupted or modified participation, with no reported seizures or syncopal episodes. One commercial provider reported nine medically important or otherwise notable events across approximately 3.8 million sessions. The other reported five such events across more than 400,000 sessions. Because commercial adverse-event capture was passive and the laboratory protocols and monitoring procedures were heterogeneous, these figures cannot be used to estimate incidence or establish screening effectiveness. This synthesis informed a provisional Sussex Strobe Safety Screening Questionnaire (4SQ) and a layered, context-specific risk-management approach. The resulting framework distinguishes non-serious tolerability concerns from the principal medical risk of a visually provoked seizure in a susceptible individual, and supports conservative monitored familiarisation exposure, immediate stopping procedures and systematic adverse-event surveillance. The predictive performance of the 4SQ and the effectiveness of these precautions require formal evaluation; absolute SLS risk remains uncertain.
تحریک نوری استروبوسکوپیک (SLS) به طور قابل اعتمادی توهمات بصری هندسی و، در برخی زمینهها، تجارب تغییر یافته حالت را ایجاد میکند. افزایش استفاده از آن در پژوهش، محیطهای عمومی، تفریحی و بالینی اکتشافی، نیاز به راهنمایی ایمنی متناسب را ایجاد کرده است. نگرانی اصلی، بروز تشنج ناشی از تحریک بصری در افراد مستعد است؛ پاسخهای غیرصرعی گزارششده شامل ناراحتی یا پریشانی میباشد. ما یک پیمایش گذشتهنگر از شیوههای ایمنی و رویدادهای گزارششده در چهار آزمایشگاه، دادههای عملیاتی گزارششده توسط ارائهدهندگان از دو پلتفرم تجاری SLS، و مروری متمرکز بر حساسیت به نور و عدم تحمل حسی را ترکیب کردیم. مشارکتکنندگان آزمایشگاهی ۲۰ رویداد غیرجدی را گزارش کردند که موجب توقف یا تغییر در مشارکت شد، بدون هیچ مورد گزارششدهای از تشنج یا سنکوپ. یکی از ارائهدهندگان تجاری، ۹ رویداد مهم پزشکی یا قابل توجه دیگر را در حدود ۳٫۸ میلیون جلسه گزارش کرد. دیگری ۵ رویداد مشابه را در بیش از ۴۰۰٬۰۰۰ جلسه گزارش نمود. از آنجا که ثبت رویدادهای نامطلوب تجاری به صورت غیرفعال انجام میشد و پروتکلها و روشهای پایش آزمایشگاهی ناهمگون بودند، این ارقام را نمیتوان برای برآورد شیوع یا تعیین اثربخشی غربالگری به کار برد. این ترکیب شواهد، منجر به تدوین پرسشنامه غربالگری ایمنی استروب ساسکس (4SQ) و رویکرد مدیریت ریسک لایهای و متناسب با زمینه شد. چارچوب حاصل، نگرانیهای غیرجدی تحملپذیری را از خطر اصلی پزشکی یعنی تشنج ناشی از تحریک بصری در فرد مستعد متمایز میکند و از آشنایی تدریجی و تحت نظارت، رویههای توقف فوری و پایش نظاممند رویدادهای نامطلوب حمایت مینماید. عملکرد پیشبینیکننده 4SQ و اثربخشی این اقدامات احتیاطی نیازمند ارزیابی رسمی است؛ ریسک مطلق SLS همچنان نامشخص باقی میماند.
