Information and Communication Technology Utilization in Instructional Management
Journal Title: Psychology and Education: A Multidisciplinary Journal - Year 2024, Vol 19, Issue 4
Abstract
This study investigates the demographic profile and utilization of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) among school administrators in public secondary schools. Results reveal that most administrators are aged between 47 and 57, with many possessing post-graduate qualifications. Moreover, most administrators have served in their current positions for less than five years. Regarding ICT use in instructional management, administrators and teachers generally agree on its extensive application, especially in planning, organizing, and evaluating instructional activities. However, disparities arise in perceptions of ICT utilization for leadership tasks. Challenges identified include insufficient internet connectivity and budget limitations. The null hypothesis, positing no significant difference in ICT utilization assessment between administrators and teachers, is refuted, suggesting discrepancies between perceived and actual ICT integration. The study recommends targeted ICT training for administrators and increased resource allocation to bolster instructional management. Acknowledging the critical role of ICT in contemporary educational administration, the researcher proposed an action program to enhance the ICT integration capabilities of public secondary school principals and school heads. Objectives include fostering 21st-century management strategies and facilitating practical ICT application in instructional processes. The program will undergo review and approval by education authorities, with stakeholder engagement sought for sustainability. Scheduled for the forthcoming academic year, the program aims to equip participants with instructional materials and instill a renewed commitment to enhanced school performance. Robust monitoring and evaluation mechanisms will ensure program efficacy, with budgetary provisions sourced from the Maintenance and Other Operating Expenses (MOOE) fund.
