Understanding Teacher Leadership: Elementary Students’ Perspectives on tsi Role in Shaping Classroom Dynamics
Journal Title: Psychology and Education: A Multidisciplinary Journal - Year 2025, Vol 31, Issue 7
Abstract
Educational leadership is a crucial factor in shaping students' academic and personal development, operating within an interpersonal framework that emphasizes the significant role of educators and school leaders. However, previous studies highlight challenges, such as some educators’ lack of sustained action, self-control, or compassion toward their students. This study explored the impact of teacher leadership on classroom dynamics from the perspectives of elementary students. A qualitative-descriptive approach was used to capture the depth of students’ experiences and perceptions. Data collection included in-depth interviews (IDIs) with seven participants and focus group discussions (FGDs) with six participants. Thematic analysis revealed that teacher leadership, marked by empathetic guidance, strong relationships, and motivational support, plays a critical role in students' academic success and personal growth. Teachers who foster collaboration, provide encouragement, and create supportive environments emerged as transformative figures in shaping students’ educational experiences. The findings emphasize the importance of teacher leadership in creating dynamic, inclusive classrooms where students thrive. By inspiring participation and fostering motivation, teacher leaders contribute to meaningful learning experiences, laying the foundation for students' lifelong growth and success.
