Abstract

This study aims to examine the individual and simultaneous influence of empowering leadership and adversity quotient (AQ) on the performance of kindergarten teachers. Employing a quantitative survey method with a correlational approach, data were collected via questionnaires from 58 teachers in Ilir Barat I District, Palembang City, and analyzed using correlation and multiple regression. The results confirm significant positive influences: empowering leadership alone explains 43.9% of performance variance (r=0.664), while AQ alone explains 58.6% (r=0.766). Simultaneously, both variables account for 59.3% of performance variance (r=0.770), with the regression equation Ŷ = 36.606 + 0.15X1 + 0.585X2. The novelty lies in empirically testing this specific variable combination within early childhood education, a less explored context. A key practical implication is the need for integrated professional development programs that combine leadership empowerment with resilience training to optimize teacher efficacy. This study contributes concrete empirical data and a predictive model to the educational management literature, highlighting the substantial role of psychological resilience alongside leadership in enhancing teacher’s performance.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of empowering leadership and teacher certification on teacher performance, both partially and simultaneously, within State Elementary Schools in Suak Tapeh District, Banyuasin Regency. Employing a quantitative expo-facto approach, data were collected via questionnaires and documentation from 83 teachers and analyzed using SPSS. The results indicate that both factors significantly and positively affect performance. Empowering leadership partially enhances teacher performance by fostering autonomy and support. Similarly, teacher certification status independently contributes to improved performance, likely through formal recognition and financial remuneration. Most substantially, the combined effect of empowering leadership and teacher certification exerts the strongest simultaneous influence on overall teacher performance. The novelty of this research lies in its specific examination of this dual-variable model in a rural educational context, highlighting how structural policy (certification) and daily managerial practice (leadership) interact. A key practical implication is the need for integrated school policies that combine certified teacher recruitment with ongoing leadership training for principals to cultivate an empowering work environment. This study contributes to the educational management literature by providing empirical evidence from a district-level setting, underscoring that both systemic incentives and localized leadership are critical levers for enhancing teacher efficacy.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the combined influence of curriculum implementation and teacher motivation on student learning achievement in State Junior High Schools within Sematang Borang District. Employing a quantitative descriptive method, data were collected via questionnaires, observation, and documentation from a sample of 70 principals and teachers across two schools: SMP Negeri 23 and SMP Negeri 60 Palembang. Analysis involved normality, linearity, and multicollinearity tests, followed by correlation, regression, t-tests, and an F-test. The results indicate a statistically significant joint influence, with curriculum and teacher motivation together explaining 59.6% of the variance in student achievement. The novelty lies in empirically examining the synergistic effect of these two factors within a specific Indonesian district context. Practically, the findings underscore the need for integrated school improvement policies that simultaneously enhance curricular delivery and teacher incentive structures. This research contributes to educational management theory by quantifying the collective impact of institutional and human resource variables on academic outcomes.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the combined influence of work motivation and work discipline on the performance of elementary school teachers in Rantau Bayur District. Employing a quantitative descriptive method, data were collected via questionnaires, observation, and documentation from a sample of 95 teachers and principals across 10 public elementary schools. Statistical analysis included normality, linearity, and multicollinearity tests, followed by correlation, regression, t-tests, and an F-test. The results demonstrate that both factors significantly and positively affect teacher performance, with their combined influence being substantially greater than their individual effects. The novelty of this research lies in its focused examination of the synergy between intrinsic motivation and behavioral discipline within a specific rural Indonesian educational context. A key practical implication is the need for school administrators to develop integrated policies that simultaneously enhance motivational incentives and reinforce disciplinary frameworks. This study contributes actionable empirical evidence to the field of educational management, highlighting that holistic human resource strategies, rather than isolated interventions, are critical for optimizing teacher performance in public elementary schools.

Abstract

This study aims to test the effect of a Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model assisted by interactive videos on the computational thinking skills of second-grade elementary school students in Banyuasin III. Utilizing a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental method, data were collected through tests and observations. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS version 26 to examine the causal relationship between the instructional model and learning outcomes. The results demonstrate that students taught with the PBL and interactive video model achieved a significantly higher average computational thinking ability than those taught with a direct instruction model. The novelty of this research lies in its specific integration of interactive video media to scaffold the PBL process for very young learners, a demographic underrepresented in computational thinking research. A key practical implication is the actionable framework it provides for elementary teachers to enhance 21st-century skills by combining collaborative problem-solving with engaging digital visualization tools. The study contributes empirical evidence to the field of primary education technology, validating a multimedia-enhanced PBL strategy as an effective pedagogical intervention for developing foundational computational thinking.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of principal supervision and organizational culture on teacher performance within State Vocational Schools in Ogan Ilir Regency. Employing a quantitative descriptive method, data were collected via questionnaires from a sample of 67 teachers across five vocational schools. Statistical analysis included normality, linearity, and multicollinearity tests, followed by correlation, regression, t-tests, and an F-test. The results confirm that both principal supervision and organizational culture have a significant positive effect on teacher performance, with their combined influence explaining a substantial portion of the variance in performance outcomes. The novelty of this research lies in its focused examination of these two managerial factors within the specific context of Indonesian public vocational education, a sector critical to workforce development. A key practical implication is the need for district-level policies that train school principals in constructive supervision techniques while consciously fostering a collaborative and achievement-oriented school culture. This study contributes to the field of educational management by providing empirical evidence that strategic leadership and intentional cultural development are synergistic levers for enhancing teacher effectiveness in vocational settings.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of infrastructure facility availability and teacher work motivation on the professionalism of State Elementary School teachers in the Ikrar Cluster, Banyuasin III District, examining both partial and simultaneous effects. Employing a quantitative ex post facto method, data were collected via questionnaires and documentation from a sample of 138 teachers. Analysis was conducted using SPSS. The results confirm three key findings: (1) infrastructure availability has a significant positive influence on teacher professionalism; (2) teacher work motivation has a significant positive influence on professionalism; and (3) both factors together exert a statistically stronger combined influence. The novelty of this research lies in its empirical examination of the synergistic relationship between tangible resource allocation (infrastructure) and intangible human resource factors (motivation) within a specific Indonesian school cluster context. A central practical implication is that school district administrators must adopt integrated improvement policies that concurrently invest in physical facilities and foster motivational strategies to optimize teacher professionalism. The study contributes actionable empirical evidence to the field of educational management, demonstrating that teacher development is most effectively enhanced through a dual-focused strategy addressing both environmental and psychological supports.
