Abstract

This study examined ethical leadership as a predictor of teachers’ task performance in public secondary schools in Delta State, Nigeria. Four research questions and four null hypotheses guided the study. A correlational research design was adopted. population comprised 11,011 teachers in public secondary schools across the 25 Local Government Areas of Delta State. A sample of 551 teachers was selected using proportionate stratified and simple random sampling techniques. Data were collected using two researcher-developed instruments: the Ethical Leadership Questionnaire (ELQ) and Teachers’ Task Performance Questionnaire (TTPQ). The instruments were validated by experts in Educational Management and Measurement and Evaluation, while reliability was established using Cronbach Alpha, which yielded an overall coefficient of 0.750. Data were analysed using simple regression analysis at the 0.05 level of significance with the aid of SPSS version 27. The findings revealed that ethical leadership significantly predicted teachers’ task performance. Specifically, dimensions such as integrity, fairness, accountability, effective communication, participatory decision-making, and professional conduct positively influenced teachers’ effectiveness in carrying out instructional and school-related responsibilities. The study concluded that ethical leadership is essential for improving teachers’ task performance in public secondary schools. It was therefore recommended that principals should uphold ethical standards, encourage participatory leadership practices, and maintain transparent communication to enhance teachers’ effectiveness and overall school productivity.

Abstract

Promoting healthy eating among youth is hindered by limited access to reliable dietary guidance, which often leads to poor nutritional practices and adverse long-term health outcomes among adolescents. This study adopted an ex-post facto, descriptive survey design in Delta State, Nigeria. Out of a population of 14,819 public senior secondary students across three senatorial zones, a sample of 390 students from 18 schools was selected using Slovin’s formula and multistage sampling. Data was collected via a validated, 4-point Likert scale questionnaire (Cronbach’s Alpha = 0.81) with a 100% retrieval rate. Analysis involved percentages, mean scores, standard deviations, and t-test statistics using SPSS version 22. Based on 390 respondents, senior secondary students agreed that television (M = 3.47), friends/classmates (M = 3.26), radio (M = 2.90), and social media (M = 2.76) are available nutritional information sources, exceeding the 2.50 cut-off. Conversely, they disagreed on home economics textbooks, newspapers, and fiction books (M = 2.23 – 2.40). Standard deviations ranged from 0.63 to 0.99. Hypothesis testing revealed a significant locational difference in information sources between urban (N = 219, M = 21.42, SD = 2.62) and rural (N = 171, M = 12.35, SD = 2.38) students. With t-cal = 35.32 and p = 0.00 (at alpha = 0.05), the null hypothesis was rejected. In conclusion, secondary students rely heavily on electronic and social media for nutritional knowledge, while print media remains ineffective. Significant urban-rural disparities highlight the urgent need for equitable, localized nutritional interventions.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the application of role-playing learning methods in improving students' theater skills. The study was conducted in class XI B of SMA Negeri 10 Malang using the Kemmis & Mc. Taggart Classroom Action Research (CAR) model consisting of two cycles. Each cycle involves four stages, namely planning, implementation, observation, and reflection. In cycle I, students are introduced to basic theater techniques and asked to practice acting techniques, as well as practice reading scripts together. In cycle II, students further practice basic theater techniques and do space processing (blocking) using the scripts that have been studied. The results of the study showed that although in cycle I students' scores were still below the KKM, after cycle II, there was a significant increase in students' ability to play roles according to the characters they played. In addition, the Role-Playing method has also proven effective in improving students' interpersonal communication and self-confidence. This study shows that the application of the role-playing method can improve students' theater skills, while also having a positive impact on their social and emotional development.

Abstract

This research aims to increase students' involvement and understanding in the subject of Arts and Culture, especially in contemporary theater materials, through the use of Character Card learning media. The background of this research arises from the low level of understanding of grade XI 3 students at SMAN 9 Malang on the basics of role-playing, especially in the aspect of deepening character characters, which is caused by the lack of innovation and the limitations of media in the learning process. The method used is Class Action Research (PTK), which is carried out in two cycles with stages of planning, implementation, observation, and reflection. Data collection is carried out through observation, learning outcome tests, and documentation. The results showed a significant increase in student participation and understanding after the implementation of the action. The participation rate of students increased from 58% in the first cycle to 83% in the second cycle. Media Character Cards have proven to be effective in creating a more interactive, fun, and meaningful learning atmosphere.

Abstract

Pragmatic competence is very important for English language learners. Learners of any foreign language must know how to use language, vocabulary, expressions, and gestures within specific contexts. Learning a language involves more than just vocabulary and grammar; it also includes pragmatic abilities, which are the capacity to understand and convey the implicit meanings of the language Therefore, this study focused on explaining and analyzing some activities that can develop the communicative ability of English language learners, as these activities are an important part of the language learning process. This study examines activities designed to develop pragmatic competency among ASL learners in school settings. It aims to identify effective strategies that enhance learners’ communicative skills. A qualitative analysis of selected classroom activities was conducted. The findings indicate that interactive and context-based activities significantly improve pragmatic use of ASL. The study highlights the importance of incorporating pragmatic-focused tasks in ASL instruction.

Abstract

This study analyzes the financial management performance of the Kediri City Government during 2022–2024 using data from the Regional Revenue, Financial, and Asset Management Agency (BPPKAD) of Kediri City. The Value for Money approach covering economy, efficiency, and effectiveness is applied and reinforced with the expenditure composition ratio, regional financial independence ratio, and Locally Generated Revenue (PAD) growth ratio. A quantitative descriptive method was used with secondary data from the Kediri City Government's Budget Realization Reports (LRA) for 2022–2024. Results show the economy level is economical, with ratios of 79.14%, 81.58%, and 82.42%. The efficiency level is inefficient, with ratios of 102.01%, 105.98%, and 103.42%, as expenditure realization consistently exceeded revenue realization. The effectiveness level is effective, with ratios of 105.61%, 101.78%, and 100.38%. Operating expenditure ranged from 86.78% to 89.85% of total expenditure, while capital expenditure ranged from 9.76% to 12.69%. The financial independence ratio is consultative, rising from 28.16% to 34.88%. The PAD growth ratio declined by 27.42% in 2022 before growing 9.98% and 11.01% in the following years. Overall, Kediri City's financial management has fulfilled the principles of economy and effectiveness, although budget efficiency and fiscal independence still require improvement.
