Abstract

This study aims to examine the influence of the principal's leadership style and school climate on teacher innovation in digital-based learning in elementary schools in Cibatu District, Purwakarta Regency. The approach used is quantitative with correlational survey methods and multiple regression. The population in this study was 127 elementary school teachers, with a purposive sampling technique to select the entire population that was considered representative. The instrument used was a closed questionnaire that measured the variables of the principal's leadership style, school climate, and digital-based learning innovation. Data were collected and analyzed using SPSS for normality, linearity, correlation, regression, and significance tests. The results of the study showed that the principal's leadership style and school climate had a positive and significant influence on teachers' innovation in digital-based learning. Principals who adopt a transformational leadership style and create a collaborative school climate can encourage innovation in the use of technology in the classroom. The study also identified limitations such as focusing on one area and using only quantitative data. The implications of this study show the importance of the role of school principals in creating an environment that supports digital innovation. The suggestion was that principals need to adopt a more inclusive leadership style and provide ongoing digital training for teachers, as well as ensure adequate support for the application of technology in primary schools.
