Abstract

This article discusses the development procedures of the Tarannum Smart Learning Application (Tarannum-SLA). It is a teaching and learning aid that has been developed for those who are interested in the tarannum subject. The tarannum is a technique to beautify and curve the tone of voice, in a certain tempo and rhythm when reading the Quran. The main aim of Tarannum-SLA is to facilitate the process of learning tarannum. Also, this courseware could create awareness among Muslims on the importance of the Quran. The Tarannum-SLA was developed not only to attract Muslims but also for non-Muslims who are interested to know about Islam, especially in terms of the arts of Quran recitation. Furthermore, in this courseware, we provide three language options, which are Malay, English, and Arabic for the convenience of our diverse prospective users. There are seven styles of tarannum, including Bayyati, Nahwand, Hijaz, Rast, Soba, Jiharkah, and Sika that are included in the Tarannum-SLA. Furthermore, to examine the ability of Tarannum-SLA to tackle the users’ needs, we have conducted the usability analysis based on the diffusion of innovation model. The result indicated that most of the constructs are perceived at a high level by respondents. Thus, this evidenced the high usability of Tarannum-SLA in promoting Quranic education. Although the development of this courseware has reached the implementation stage, it still needs some future improvements, for example, to amend the verses and reciters.

Abstract

The ability of instructional leadership practices in shaping positive school culture is well known. Similarly, it is also proven that this kind of school leadership could strengthen teachers’ commitment. However, the research tended to focus on conventional instructional leadership and the ability of virtual instructional leadership to produce such impact remains unclear. Therefore, this study investigated the influence of virtual instructional leadership on teachers’ commitment. Based on Meyer and Allen’s Organizational Commitment Model the research model developed and analyzed using partial least squares-structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM). The finding revealed a positive impact of principals’ virtual instructional leadership practices towards teachers’ commitment in schools. Despite this, the study also discovered that normative and continuous commitments are not the fit dimensions for teacher’s commitments in the context of virtual instructional leadership, which is quite shocking. Hence, this would be a fruitful area for further works.
