Factors Affecting Teachers Classroom Innovation Management School of Educational Innovation Area, Rayong Province

Abstract

The purposes of this research were: 1) To study the level of innovation management in the classroom and the level of factors affecting the management of innovation in the classroom 2) To study the relationship between the factors affecting the level of innovation management in the classroom 3) To study the factors affecting management of innovation in the classroom and 4) forming an innovation management forecasting equation in the classroom. The sample group consisted of 447 school teachers in the educational innovation area of Rayong province using the landscape stratification method. Research instruments include research questionnaires. The statistics used to analyze the data were frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation. Pearson's correlation coefficient and multiple regression statistics were used.

The study findings revealed as follows: 1) the level of innovation management in the classroom and the level of the factors studied 2) all of the factors studied were positively correlated with classroom innovation management. 3) Teacher co-efficacy factors (X₃), innovative thinking skills (X₁), innovative leadership characteristics (X₂) affecting classroom innovation management. It was statistically significant at the .01 level and 4) was able to predict classroom innovation management at 78.30 percent (R₂=.7830). The forecast equation was as follows: the predictive equation in raw scores:  and the predictive equation in standard scores: Y = .504 + .367X₃ + .300X₁ + .211X₂ and the predictive equation in standard scores: Z = .366Zx₃ + .357Zx₁ + .235Zx₂
