Abstract

Purpose of the Study: The purpose of this study was to investigate students’ attitudes toward cooperative learning, their levels of academic achievement, the relationship between these two dimensions, and the reasons behind their demonstrated attitudes. Methodology: This explanatory sequential mixed methods design was employed, and the convenient sampling technique was adopted to choose 422 students and 7 teachers studying and working at two Generation Schools (NGSs). A survey questionnaire and interview protocol were utilized to collect the data. The statistics, such as percentage, mean, standard deviation, and the independent samples t-test, were used to analyze the data. Main Findings: The findings indicated that students’ attitudes towards cooperative learning were highly positive. The reason behind students’ attitudes towards cooperative learning focuses on its value and benefits. That is to say, students valued cooperative learning for its benefits, including the development of social skills and cognitive domain, stress reduction, enjoyment, and learning performance. However, they had some concerns, including time-consuming, conflicting interests, and potential grade drawbacks in terms of their final course grade. Novelty/Originality of this study: The study revealed that cooperative learning improves social skills, cognitive growth, and stress reduction, but students are also concerned about efficiency and fairness in grading. Accordingly, this study shed light on the practical and emotional problems of cooperative learning that were generally missed in the literature. The findings would also provide a more complete knowledge of cooperative learning's adoption in education by bridging theoretical advantages and real-world student concerns.

Abstract

Purpose of the Study: This study aims to investigate the impact of high school directors’ digital leadership practices on teachers’ self-efficacy in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. Methodology: This study employed a quantitative survey design, utilizing an online questionnaire. The sample included 300 teachers from 30 high schools in Phnom Penh City. Data analysis was conducted with SPSS version 30, employing both descriptive and inferential statistical methods to answer the research questions. Main Findings: Findings show that both high school directors’ digital leadership practices and teachers’ self-efficacy, overall and by dimensions, were at high levels. A weak but significant positive correlation was found between digital leadership practices and teachers’ self-efficacy. The results also suggest that strengthening digital leadership can indirectly enhance teaching standards by boosting teachers’ self-efficacy. Novelty/Originality of this Study: This study contributes new knowledge by empirically linking digital leadership practices of school directors with teachers’ self-efficacy in Cambodia’s secondary education sector. It advances existing research by highlighting the contextual role of digital leadership in improving teacher capacity, offering practical insights for policymakers and school leaders to develop targeted leadership and training programs.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study aimed to examine whether and to what extent Technostress Creators (TSC) and Technostress Inhibitors (TSI) predict the level of Transformational Leadership (TRL) among academic administrators at the Preah Sihamoniraja Buddhist University (PSBU) in Cambodia. Methodology: The study used a quantitative predictive correlational design with 123 PSBU academic administrators (e.g., rectors, deans, and department heads) selected through total population sampling. Data were collected using two instruments: the Technostress Creators and Inhibitors scale (TSC/TSI) and the Multiple-Factor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ 5X) for transformational leadership. The instruments were back-translated and validated for clarity and reliability. Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics with computer-based methods. Main Findings: The findings revealed that techno-insecurity (T-INS) was the only statistically significant predictor, negatively associated with TRL. Other TSC and TSI variables were not statistically significant predictors. Overall, regression models for TSC and TSI did not significantly explain variation in TRL levels. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study is significant at the theoretical and practical levels. Theoretically, this study broadens the understanding of technostress and transformational leadership style. Practically, this study can be used to examine how academic administrators in higher education perceive technostress and its effects.
