Abstract

Digital information literacy and digital informal learning are especially fundamental in improving the efficiency of teachers instruction within a context of limited resources such as Islamic secondary schools of Southern Pakistan. This paper examines how digital competencies (ex: information literacy, technology use, and communication) and digital informal learning (e.g.: self-directed learning thru online platforms) make teachers able to deliver engaging lessons, manage classrooms, and encourage student-centered learning. Although interest in digital education is increasing, little research has considered such aspects in rural to Islamic schools. In a quantitative research, 450 teachers of Islam secondary schools and Southern Punjab comprised the purposive sample in which the structured questionnaires were administered and assessed using SPSS v 22, descriptive statistics, correlation and multiple linear regression. Results have shown that increased digital capabilities lead to a strong increase in instructional effectiveness, whereas digital informal learning brings cultural awareness and invention of new practices in teaching. A combination of these factors enhances the delivery of the lesson, student participation, and classroom management. The research suggests considering digital competency training and informal learning materials as part of teacher development companies in order to improve educational performance in the under-resourced Islamic schools.

Abstract

This study investigates how digital competencies and the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) influence the instructional effectiveness of secondary school teachers in Southern Pakistan. A quantitative research approach was employed, collecting data from 440 teachers selected through purposive sampling across four tehsils in Kot Addu District. Structured questionnaires measured digital competencies, AI usage, and teacher effectiveness, and the data were analyzed using SPSS v27 with descriptive statistics, regression analysis, t-tests, and ANOVA. Results indicate that while digital competencies alone did not produce a statistically significant independent effect (p = 0.051), AI usage had a strong positive impact on teaching outcomes (p = 0.000). The combination of digital competencies and AI integration significantly improved instructional effectiveness (p = 0.024), classroom management, and student engagement. Descriptive analysis showed above-average confidence in AI and digital tools, with variations across tehsils and genders. Reliability and validity tests (Cronbach’s alpha > 0.87, Pearson correlation > 0.189) confirmed the robustness of the findings. Based on these results, the study recommends AI-focused teacher training programs, integration of digital tools into lesson planning, provision of equitable access to technology, and regular professional development. Policymakers are advised to strengthen digital infrastructure, promote AI literacy, and support lifelong learning to enhance teacher effectiveness and advance 21st-century education in Southern Pakistan.
