Main Article Content
Abstract
The purposes of this research were (1) to study the digital leadership level of school administrators and the performance effectiveness level of teachers; (2) to study the relationship between digital leadership of school administrators and performance effectiveness of teachers; and (3) to study the digital leadership factors of school administrators affecting performance effectiveness of teachers in elementary schools under the Office of Chaiyaphum Primary Education Service Area 2. The research sample totaling 338 school personnel consisted of 35 school administrators and 303 teachers. The research instrument was a questionnaire with reliability coefficient of 0.97. The research data was processed by a computer program using statistical analysis procedures of correlation and stepwise regression analysis. The research findings revealed that (1) the overall digital leadership of the school administrators was at the high level and the overall performance effectiveness of teachers was at the high level; (2) digital leadership of school administrators and performance effectiveness of teachers correlated positively, which was significant at the .01 level; and (3) two factors of the school administrators’ digital leadership were predictors of the teachers’ work performance effectiveness, i.e. technological competency (X3) and digital learning path (X1), with the multiple correlation coefficient of 0.681 and the combined predictive coefficient or predictive power of 46.40 percent which was significant at the .01 level. The predictive equation in the form of raw scores is as follows: Y = 2.007 + 0.688(X3) - 0.156 (X1); while the predictive equation in the form of standardized scores is as follows: Z(Y) = 0.795 Z(X3) - 0.161 Z(X1)
