Abstract

Purpose-distributed leadership (DL) continues to draw practitioners and researchers’ attention in the context of education leadership as early as the 21st century. While an increasing amount of literature strongly advises principals to shift toward DL practices, there is a paucity of studies that indicate the extent to which this shift is taking place in practice across Islamic secondary schools. Consequently, this study investigates the distributed of leadership practices of two Islamic secondary schools located in two different countries. Design/methodology/approach-the study uses a collective case study methodology with a mixed-method approach, and collected data from 30 school teachers and interviews six school teachers. Findings-the findings reveal that both selected Islamic secondary schools have a definite hierarchy decided by top management. The findings also indicate that when leadership roles are distributed among classroom teachers, the schools do not seem to have fixed criteria. In addition, the findings illustrate that novice teachers are slowly given responsibilities and prepared to take on leadership roles. Implications–the findings could serve as a supportive literature in practicing DL across Islamic secondary schools to reduce the workload of headteachers. The findings further link DL to the development of a professional learning community though teacher leadership. Originality/value–The significance and originality of this research arguably falls along the fact that; it is the first of its kind to empirically investigate DL practices across Islamic secondary schools in two different geographical locations.

Abstract

The objective of this article is a systematic investigation into the effectiveness of information and communication technologies (ICT) usage within the framework of the educational model “industry 4.0”, focusing on the influence of digital transformation on technological leadership in educational institutions. The problem is insufficient technical equipment, uneven distribution of resources, and insufficient support for teachers. The solution lies in systematic innovative training and support for teachers, creating incentives to increase their motivation. The study employs an experimental research design, utilizing survey methods. The subjects of the research include six directors, six teachers, and 120 students from educational institutions in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and the Russian Federation. According to the survey results, teachers have a positive attitude toward using ICT. A majority of teachers believe that the use of ICT has a positive impact on students’ academic achievements. Responses to open-ended questions indicate a lack or uneven distribution of technical equipment, emphasizing the need for training and support for teachers. One teacher suggesting the “introduction of incentives and rewards” raises the issue of creating a reward system for teachers, which could affect their motivation. Regarding students’ academic performance, the results show that students in educational institutions with active ICT integration demonstrate better results.

Abstract

Administrators in educational institutions will need to implement smart and well-designed changes in teacher management to mitigate the negative effects. Using teacher resilience as an example, the study seeks to assess the level of resilience in schools and analyze its effects on teacher management. The study includes 197 teachers from 31 Russian schools in Kazan, Elabuga, Moscow, and Yekaterinburg, and 100 foreign teachers working in United Arab Emirates. The research design was descriptive transactional and based on a questionnaire. The study yielded the following findings: i) 89.4% of teachers have a high level of stress, 94.2% have a high level of worry, 92.3% have a high level of anxiety, 33.8% have a low level of resilience, and 95.7% were in a difficult emotional state and ii) the inquiry-based stress reduction (IBSR) practice had a positive effect on increasing teacher resilience. This indicated that implementing such changes in teacher management might be successful in boosting teacher resilience, which would affect school resilience generally. Educational researchers have confirmed the effectiveness of the IBSR tool in boosting teacher resiliency, and the results of this study can aid school administrators in developing new management models utilizing this tool.
