Abstract

In the digital age, university principals and teachers share the same responsibility for improving educational digital transformation. However, their performance remains disadvantaged. This study aims to investigate the relationship between principal digital leadership and teacher technology usage, and explores how teacher technology usage contributes to principal digital leadership. The study employed a quantitative method, collecting data from 500 teachers across 25 universities in Jilin Province, China. Pearson correlation analysis examined the association between principal digital leadership and teacher technology usage, while multiple regression explored how teacher technology usage contributes to principal digital leadership practices. The results revealed a positive relationship between principal digital leadership and teacher technology usage. All four dimensions of teacher technology usage contribute to digital leadership practices, with the professional development dimension showing the greatest impact. Overall, these findings prove that teacher technology usage indeed catalyzes principal digital leadership practices, which contributes to understanding of the interaction in leadership and provides a new perspective for enhancing principal digital leadership. It implies that principals and teachers can grow together in their interactions. Therefore, strengthening teachers’ professional development can contribute to principal digital leadership practice.

Abstract

Digital leadership in educational settings has gained substantial attention in recent years. However, still lacks of a comprehensive understanding of digital leadership. Therefore, this systematic review presents the analysis on three key areas: defining digital leadership, understanding its effect, and analyzing what factors influence digital leadership practice. It aims to reveal the overlooked aspects of digital leadership. Methods involved conducting a systematic review of studies from the Scopus, Web of Science, and EBSCO databases, complemented by searches of citing articles and reference lists. The data gathered were analyzed to identify patterns and gaps in the current literature. As a result, this review suggest that digital leadership should be defined dynamically, taking into account the evolving nature of technology and its integration into education. The effects of digital leadership should focus more on promoting lifelong learning and ensuring digital safety. Future research should delve deeper into the factors influencing digital leadership to provide a more nuanced understanding of its practice. This literature review contributes to a comprehensive understanding of digital leadership by uncovering previously overlooked dimensions and proposing directions for future research.

Abstract

In education policy, principals’ teaching leadership is key to improving education quality. It shapes school culture and affects various aspects of school development, including teacher job satisfaction. However, there is a limitation of empirical research on how principal instructional leadership impacts teacher job satisfaction in Northwest China, a less developed area, highlighting a critical gap in understanding local educational dynamics. Therefore, this quantitative study aims to explain the impact of instructional leadership by principals on teacher job satisfaction in junior high schools across Ningxia, China. Underpinned by a correlational design, the study specifically focuses on the relationship between principal instructional leadership and teachers’ job satisfaction and the dimensions of instructional leadership that are most strongly associated with high levels of teacher job satisfaction. By analysing questionnaire responses from 372 randomly selected teachers, the research highlights that clear goal setting, effective curriculum coordination, and promoting professional development opportunities are important in improving teacher satisfaction. Interestingly, the study also shows that some commonly valued practices, such as high visibility and student progress monitoring, do not significantly influence teacher satisfaction. These findings highlight the importance of instructional leadership practices in improving teacher job satisfaction and suggest areas where school leaders can focus their efforts to enhance the overall educational environment.
