Abstract

Education supervision is the process of professional development of the teacher, primarily by giving the teacher feedback about classroom interactions and helping the teacher make sure the feedback is used to improve the teacher's behavior to make teaching and learning more effective. Quality education results from effective and efficient supervision of education whereby a supervisor creates a conducive environment for teachers to perform their responsibilities. The paper intends to explore the role and challenges facing education supervisors in doing their responsibilities in Tanzania. To achieve this, the researchers did a mini-review. The paper searched the internet for relevant and timely research papers and articles mainly focusing on supervision in secondary schools. Once a sufficient number of materials for the mini-review had been gathered, the laborious process of assessing and analyzing the concepts and contexts within each piece commenced. The study finds that the quality of education depends on the presence of a competent and committed school headmaster in supervising the critical effectiveness of the school, while challenges facing education supervisors are categorized into two categories: Problems in instruction supervision and administrative supervision. In solving these problems, education supervision has to be put into consideration by the government as it plays a vital role in improving educational performance.

Abstract

The integration of digital technology in higher education has accelerated the need for innovative pedagogical approaches that foster active learning and digital competence. Project-Based Learning (PjBL) supported by e-learning provides authentic, technology-driven experiences that are particularly valuable in vocational education, where students must connect theory with practice. This study examined the effect of PjBL using e-learning on student learning outcomes in vocational education courses at the Department of Information Technology Education, Universitas Negeri Surabaya. A quasi-experimental pretest–posttest control group design was employed with 64 purposively selected undergraduate students from the 2024/2025 academic cohort. Participants were assigned equally to an experimental group (n = 32), which received PjBL integrated with e-learning, and a control group (n = 32), which received conventional lecture-based instruction. Data were collected through pretests and posttests and analyzed using descriptive statistics, independent samples t-test, and effect size calculations. Findings revealed that the experimental group achieved significantly higher posttest scores (M = 84.63, SD = 5.21) compared to the control group (M = 76.88, SD = 6.02). The independent samples t-test confirmed the significance of the difference (t = 5.67, p < 0.001), while Cohen’s d (d = 1.32) indicated a large effect size. These results demonstrate that integrating PjBL with e-learning substantially improves learning outcomes in vocational education. In conclusion, PjBL supported by e-learning offers an effective instructional strategy for enhancing problem-solving, higher-order thinking, and active student engagement. The findings suggest that aligning pedagogy with digital platforms can optimize learning effectiveness and strengthen students’ readiness for professional challenges.

Abstract

The rapid advancement of science and technology has ushered in transformative changes in education management, embracing innovative tools and methods for more efficient and effective educational processes. The purpose of this study was to investigate the use of EMIS in enhancing effective school management and explore the challenges associated with it. The data were collected through semi-structured interviews with five principals of selected secondary schools found in Dodoma City, Tanzania. Qualitative data analysis techniques were used to analyze data with an audit trail and member checks to ensure the quality of the collected data. The research results show that EMIS plays a crucial role in efficiently managing schools. Principals rely on EMIS as a dependable repository for school data, for tracking attendance of both teachers and students, managing student enrollments, ensuring the efficient operation of school finances, enhancing communication, and improving the management of academic activities. However, challenges such as a shortage of ICT experts, inadequate internet connectivity, limited budgets, frequent electricity outages, the absence of user-friendly software, and difficulties in system integration and interoperability have been identified as hindrances to the effective utilization of EMIS in school management
