Abstract

This study aims to analyze the interest and perceptions of teacher welfare among 52 respondents. Quantitative analysis revealed that 69.2% of respondents are highly interested in becoming teachers, while 30.8% are moderately interested. These findings reflect a strong commitment from the younger generation toward the teaching profession, despite significant concerns about financial welfare. Qualitative analysis identified two main themes: financial welfare and personal motivation. Many respondents felt that the salary they receive is not proportional to the responsibilities they bear, while intrinsic motivation, such as a desire to contribute to education, serves as a major driving factor in choosing this career. This study aligns with previous findings emphasizing the importance of financial welfare in job satisfaction for teachers but also offers new insights by highlighting personal motivation as a decisive factor. The conclusion of this research suggests that greater attention to teachers' financial welfare is necessary to attract high-quality individuals to the teaching profession and to create a better learning environment. Recommendations for policymakers include increasing compensation and support for teachers while considering their intrinsic motivations.

Abstract

Digital transformation has brought significant changes to the world of education, requiring educational management to adapt and innovate in managing schools. This article examines the main challenges faced by educational management in implementing school digitalization through a literature review of current scientific sources, both nationally and internationally. The results of the study indicate that the main challenges include technological infrastructure gaps, limited digital competence of teachers, high implementation costs, a lack of digital learning materials, and issues of data security and ethics. The discussion is conducted in-depth to explain the root causes, impacts, and potential solutions to these challenges. This article emphasizes the importance of stakeholder collaboration, continuous teacher training, and the development of adaptive and responsive policies to technological advancements. Thus, the digitalization of education is expected to run optimally and improve the quality of learning in the digital era.
