For both organizational and personal life, especially for teachers in the context of schools, organizational citizenship behavior (OCB), is essential. Thus, this study investigates and creates a novel empirical model of the mediation mechanism of compensation on the relationship between visionary leadership and teachers' OCB. For this study, 230 private junior high school teachers in three Indonesian provinces Jakarta, West Java, and Banten were given Likert scale questionnaires. With survey methods and analyses by structural equation modeling (SEM) found a significant impact of visionary leadership and compensation on OCB, the substantial influence of visionary leadership on compensation, and the significant effect of visionary leadership on OCB through compensation. This evidence supports a novelty about visionary leadership, through compensation, affects teachers' OCB. It is in line with and confirms the results of previous research as the basis of this research and, at the same time, negates the conflicting results of previous research. Under these circumstances, the novel model offers a theoretical and practical contribution that necessitates thorough and critical debate prior to adoption, adaptation, or modification as a model for enhancing teachers' OCB through visionary leadership backed by compensation.

The present study attempted to describe the initiatives of Saint (St.) Kuriakose Elias Chavara on vocational training and women’s empowerment. The study narrated the present condition of one of his vocational training initiatives known as “rosary-making,” which is in vogue at Koonammavu Village in Kerala state, India. The study employed a multi-method research design approach to carry out the present study. It included historical, qualitative, and quantitative methods in sequence. In the historical method, the study employed document analysis of primary and secondary sources. As a part of the qualitative method, the study conducted a semi-structured interview with 10 rosary-making entrepreneurs in Koonammavu. As a part of the quantitative method, the study administered a questionnaire to 100 families who are actively involved in the rosary-making business. Document analysis revealed that St. Chavara’s initiative on rosary-making vocational training for nuns was a contribution to women’s empowerment. Narrative thematic analysis revealed 5 main themes and 10 subthemes in Chavara’s contribution. Quantitative data revealed that rosary-making emerged as a livelihood, business, and source of income for many families. The study recommends future researchers focus on all the initiatives of St. Chavara in the realm of vocational training and women’s empowerment.

Online and distance learning technology with the learning management system (LMS) is an example of the application of online learning models at universities, which is the impact of technological developments. However, advances in LMS technology still need to be implemented in universities, the problem of university readiness being the main factor. Another area for improvement is the level of computer self-efficacy (CSE) among LMS users. Therefore, before the actual research was carried out, instrument testing was carried out regarding the factors influencing LMS users at the university. After testing the limited instrument on 63 university students, the results showed that of the six constructs with 21 indicator items, it was proven that only one indicator item was invalid. However, the reliability test has met the criteria. The conclusion of the initial test results of the instrument was declared valid and reliable, so it was suitable for actual testing.

This study addresses the critical issue of enhancing students’ integrated biology-technical-vocational skills, essential for career readiness, by investigating the predictive role of self-regulation within a career-oriented pedagogical framework. Self-regulation, encompassing decision-making, goal orientation, impulse control, and self-direction, is recognized as vital for both academic achievement and career preparedness. Despite its importance, there is a gap in the literature regarding its influence on the development of integrated skills. To bridge this gap, the study employs a quasi-experimental design, utilizing analysis of variance (ANOVA) and simple linear regression on data from a representative sample. The findings reveal that self-regulation significantly predicts the acquisition of these integrated skills. The study concludes that enhancing self-regulation through targeted educational interventions is crucial for fostering students’ career-oriented skills. These insights contribute to educational psychology by highlighting the importance of self-regulation in skill development, offering practical implications for improving academic and vocational outcomes. Future research should further explore these relationships and their practical applications in educational settings.

The concept of content and language integrated learning (CLIL) for English as a foreign language (EFL) writing has been extensively investigated to aid language acquisition; however, there is a paucity of knowledge regarding its impact on a specific element of writing development. This systematic literature review aimed at exploring the impacts of CLIL on EFL writing acquisition in secondary education. Grounded in three databases (i.e., Scopus, Google Scholar, and EBSCO), 43 research articles were extracted from 2015 to 2023 with certain exclusion and inclusion criteria. Findings show that Spain has practiced CLIL the most with various outcomes of specific writing measurement using a range of methods for measuring language through CLIL impacts. However, CLIL shows a dynamic gain in the specific element of writing as it positively impacts all the outcomes of writing measurement. It is suggested that future studies use new techniques for measuring discipline-specific content in writing and focus more on measuring both the language and content dimensions of writing.

Graduates in mismatched careers with their personalities often feel dissatisfied and less productive. This research aims at assessing occupational congruence and occupational satisfaction of graduates in Kenya, informed by Holland’s theory. Objective of the study is to investigate the mediating effect of congruence on the relationship between Holland’s personality types and occupational satisfaction. A longitudinal cohort research design was adopted, involving participants from a 2012 study, with 76 respondents participating. Data was collected using Holland's Self-Directed Search (SDS) 4th Edition questionnaire and an interview schedule. Logistic regression was used to examine the mediating effect of congruence on the relationship between personality types and occupational satisfaction. Results indicated that the mediating effect of congruence was statistically significant at (p0.05). This study provides additional empirical evidence for the educational institutions, career counsellors, and employers for policy making. Additionally, Holland’s classification tool can be used for career guidance to align students with suitable academic fields and ensure congruence of learners with academic programmers, and that of employees with their careers resulting to employee satisfaction.

Research conducted by graduate students is crucial for the development of lifelong learning skills and future professional success. However, many students encounter obstacles that hinder the timely completion of their research projects and theses. The factors that impede the completion of research papers within designated timeframes have not been thoroughly investigated, resulting in a lack of understanding of certain barriers. This qualitative phenomenological study aimed to identify the demotivating factors that hinder graduate researchers from completing their research papers on time. Through thematic analysis of qualitative data from 10 purposively selected graduate students experiencing demotivation, the findings provide a comprehensive understanding of the personal, psychological, institutional, and resource-related factors that demotivate graduate researchers. Key issues include self-determination challenges, conflicting responsibilities, rigid policies, and inadequate support. These insights can guide interventions to enhance graduate student achievement, well-being, and research productivity. By addressing the diverse barriers identified, academic institutions can create a more supportive environment for graduate researchers to excel.

Technological advancements have popularized "gamification" in recent years, yet few studies have explored its connection to the technology acceptance model (TAM). This paper aims to enhance understanding of the relationship between gamification and TAM by systematically reviewing current research trends. Employing a systematic literature review (SLR) method, we analyzed 72 papers identified via Scopus, focusing on 13 journal papers published between 2016 and 2020 that met our criteria for in-depth analysis. Our findings indicate a significant rise in research on gamification and TAM, with nearly half of the studies (49%) incorporating new external variables into the original TAM framework. The study identifies three key themes for future research. By providing a comprehensive review, this study contributes new knowledge and offers a critical summary for further investigation into the integration of gamification with TAM, highlighting potential avenues for future research and practical application.
