This document discusses a study on the conflict resolution strategies used by public secondary school administrators in Region XII, Philippines and how these strategies relate to school development. The study found that administrators predominantly use collaboration, problem solving, smoothing, and compromising strategies to resolve conflicts. It also found the extent of school development in the region to be moderate. Certain conflict resolution strategies like competition, litigation and mediation were found to correlate with improvements in curriculum, staff, resources, learning environment and community building. The personal attributes of administrators did not affect their choice of strategies. Administrators' top concerns included lack of knowledge about different conflict resolution approaches and conducting preliminary investigations. The document recommends intensive seminars on conflict resolution and integrating related coursework into graduate
Principle of Administration And SupervisionDaryl Tabogoc
In the field of administration and supervision, principles is accepted as a fundamental truth. Principle may be considered a law, a doctrine, a policy, or a deep-seated belief which governs the conduct of various types of human endeavor. In administration and supervision, an accepted principle become part of one’s general philosophy which serves to determine and evaluate his educational objectives, attitudes, practices and outcomes.
A sound principle is formulated from carefully observed facts or objectively measured results which are common to a series of similar experiences. The guiding value of principle depends not only upon the soundness of its origin, but also upon the individuals acceptance, understanding, and ability to apply the principles.

Dividends are a portion of a company's profits that are distributed to its shareholders. When you own shares in a company, you become a part-owner, and as a result, you may be entitled to a share of the company's earnings. Dividends are typically paid out on a regular basis, such as quarterly, semi-annually, or annually, but this can vary depending on the company's policies.
Domains and Standards of School Leadership: Evaluation of Tertiary School Tea...IJAEMSJORNAL
School Leaders are modifiers of teaching and learning, crucial to maintaining good teachers and necessary for improving educational standards. This study described Standards of School Leadership in terms of: Leading Learning and Teaching Domain, Leading School Development Domain, Organizational Management Domain, and Professional Growth and Development Domain. The descriptive method of research was used in this study. A total of 107 tertiary school teachers which have permanent appointment or considered as regular employee for more than 3 years were surveyed around Nueva Ecija. After analyses of data, the following conclusions were formulated: first, domains of school leadership can be viewed from leading learning and teaching, leading school development, organizational management, and professional growth and development. Second, among these domains, organizational management was found to be the focus of school leaders. Third, school leaders create a culture of professional learning that fosters continuous improvement in learning, teaching and assessment. Fourth, school leaders engage in a continuous process of evidence-based school self-evaluation. Fifth, ensure the safe functioning of the school on a day-to-day basis. Last, school leaders recognize the need to manage workload to ensure a sustainable work/life balance. The researchers want to recommend some matters based from the formulated conclusions. It is indeed noticeable that organizational management is the main focus of the school leaders thus, it is recommended that school leaders should not let other domains of school leadership be taken for granted. Continuous harnessing on the strengths based on the standards is highly recommended. On the others hand, strengthening of the following is also recommended: school leaders should foster a commitment to inclusion and equality of opportunity of each student; promote communication within the school and manage challenging and complex situations and build professional networks with other school leaders.

Leading the Instructional Program and its effect on Academic Achievement of s...inventionjournals
ABSTRACT: The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between instructional program and academic achievement of students in national examinations in public secondary schools in Tinderet sub county Kenya. The objective of this study was: to determine the impact of leading the instructional program on the students’ academic achievement in national examinations. The study was guided by the effective schools model by Lezotte (2010), which states that an effective school is characterized by seven correlates namely: leading the instructional program, focus on school mission, safety and orderliness of schools, expectations for success, home-school relations, frequent monitoring of students progress and opportunity to learn for students. The researcher employed a survey design targeting all the 18 public secondary schools in Tinderet Sub County, all the 18 principals and the 225 teachers. Stratified sampling technique was used to select 10 schools for the study from the total 18 schools in the distinct. The sampled schools were stratified according to the academic performance for the last three years (2011-2013). All the principals of the sampled 10 schools took part in the study. Simple random sampling was used to select 90 teachers (9 teachers from each school selected). The sample size was 100 respondents. Questionnaires and interview guide were used to collect data. The descriptive survey allowed the generation of both qualitative and quantitative data. Quantitative data was analyzed using the descriptive statistics including frequencies and percentages. Pearson product moment correlation coefficient and Anova were used to make inferences. Qualitative data was put under themes consistent with the research objectives. The analyzed data was then presented in form of graphs, pie charts and tables for easy interpretation. Findings from the study showed that, majority of the principals indicated that they always led the instructional program. Majority of the teachers on the other hand indicated that, principals did not always engage in these leadership practices but did engage sometimes. Analysis of variance between principals' and teachers' responses on similar issues indicated that there was a significant difference in the manner teachers and principals were responding to questions. Findings on the effect of leadership practices on academic performance were consistent as the teachers and principals were in agreement that these leadership practices when applied had a positive effect on academic performance. Correlation test however revealed that the effect was weak as indicated by the correlation coefficients which were below 0.5. The study concluded that; leading the instructional program was not being implemented fully. The study recommended that; Implementation of leading the instructional program practices should be effected in schools by all principals. Various stakeholders that is teachers, students, Board of Management and princi

School systems have long recognized the need for public support and participation, but
now many districts are renewing their commitment to strengthen the ties with their
communities. More than ever, school districts realize they are dependent on community
support to meet mandated state and national performance standards, develop
innovative programs, and secure financial resources.
To build lasting community support for schools that facilitates student achievement,
school boards are developing communication strategies that routinely reach diverse
community groups. The process of building such partnerships, called public
engagement, is ongoing, two-way communication between a school d ...
Strategies for Enhancing the Synergy between Principals and Mathematics Teach...iosrjce
This study examined probable causes of friction between Principals and Mathematics teachers in
secondary schools and the consequences of the friction on students’ achievements in mathematics. The study
also sought to identify the strategies that could be adopted to reduce friction so as to enhance the synergy
between principals and mathematics teachers in secondary schools. A survey was conducted on one hundred
and three (103) mathematics teachers and thirty –seven (37) principals using stratified sampling method from
the five educational zones in Adamawa State. Questionnaire was the instrument used to collect data from the
respondents. Mean, standard deviation and t-test were used to analyze the data generated from the instrument.
The study revealed that causes of friction included; lackadaisical attitude of principals to mathematics teachers’
request, domineering attitude of principals , incompetence and mal administration among principals, nonrecommendation
of in service training for mathematics teachers, mathematics teachers’ involvement in
examination malpractice, organizing private lessons for fees without the knowledge of school authority and
class evading. It was also found that establishment of democratic relationships with teachers, counseling
problem mathematics teachers, impartiality in allocation of responsibility to mathematics teachers by the
schools’ principals are among the strategies that could be adopted to reduce friction between principals and
mathematics teachers. The researcher recommended that principals and mathematics teachers should be
tolerant of one another and that they should make conscious efforts to ensure that their school is peaceful and
conducive for teaching and learning.
Classroom Conflict Management Strategies and Students’ Competency Development...ijtsrd
This study set out to investigate the impact of classroom conflict management strategies and students’ competency development in Fako Division in the South West Region of Cameroon. Four research questions were asked how does the teaching of conflict management strategies with respect to problem solving, smoothing, forcing win lose, compromising and withdrawing impact teacher competency The study employed a survey design combining both quantitative and qualitative approaches in a concurrent triangulation mixed method perspective. Two Teacher training Colleges were randomly selected. In each of the sampled college, only class three students were involved in the study. The simple random sampling technique was used to select the colleges and the classes. Data were collected using an evaluation questionnaire. Evaluation questionnaire were effectively used by Jehan 2017 and Saduman 2010 . The evaluation questionnaire was trial tested on 15 student teachers. Student teachers were later on administered the questionnaire whereby their knowledge of conflict management was captured and how it influences their teaching competency development. An in depth interview guide was used to sample the opinion of directors of colleges and the teachers on the conflict management in the curriculum of teacher training, the perceived importance and how they think it can impact teachers’ competency.

Since the publication of the Reagan e a education epo t, A Nation at Risk, the United
States has focused attention on education efo m (United States, 1983). This epo t used
compelling language to desc ibe Ame ica’s schools as la gely inadequate and unable to meet
global demands on education, the eby leaving Ame ica’s futu e in jeopa dy. Since that time
school leade s have emb aced va ious education efo m movements such as No Child Left Behind

Act [ESSA], 2008). Each with thei own measu es of standa dized testing, academic achievement,
and school pe fo mance. Pe haps ove looked is the impo tance of school climate in the ove all
school imp ovement p ocess. Cleveland and Sink (2018) p omote the notion that student
pe spectives on school climate should be included in school imp ovement plans. Othe esea ches
such as Zahid (2014), suggest school climate to be the numbe one conside ation fo student

achievement and suggested a positive co elation. School p incipals a e the leade s of thei

may include cu iculum, discipline, community elations, and fiscal esponsibilities. P incipals a e

School Bureaucracy and Student Performance
at the Local Level
A major debate in American education centers on the role bureaucracy plays in shaping educa-
tional performance. Proponents of school choice argue that large educational bureaucracies have
contributed to dramatic performance shortfalls in America’s public schools. Other scholars view
educational bureaucracies as beneficial because they manage a wide range of problems and thus
make it easier for teachers to focus on the core task of teaching. This study examines these compet-
ing claims about the impact of bureaucracy on student performance using district level data from
Texas public schools. The findings from several regression models reveal negative relationships
between bureaucracy (measured both at the central and campus administration levels) and stu-
dent performance across several different grade levels.
Scholars, political officials, the media, and the public have
paid a great deal of attention to the topic of school choice in
recent years. Scholarly attention has focused primarily on
whether a market-based approach to education improves edu-
cational quality more than the traditional monopoly-based
system of public education in America. School-choice ad-
vocates (Chubb and Moe 1990; Fliegel and MacGuire 1993)
argue that school choice allows parents and students to flee
low-quality public schools and move to higher-quality pri-
vate schools. Thus, school choice forces public schools to
improve in order to remain competitive with private schools.
Critics of school choice (Henig 1994; Smith 1994; Smith
and Meier 1995; Witte 1991, 1992) point to a large body of
empirical evidence showing that few of the alleged benefits
of school choice are realized when such programs are imple-
mented and their effects are examined. In addition to look-
ing at the effectiveness of school-choice programs in im-
proving student performance, scholars have examined how
parents acquire ...

In-Service Training Needs for the Professional Development of the Secondary S...AJHSSR Journal
ABSTRACT : The study determined the importance of in-service training needs for the professional
development of secondary school teachers in Zone 2, Division of Zambales SY 2019-2020. The descriptive
research design with survey questionnaire as the main instrument was utilized to one hundred and ten (110)
teachers as population respondents who were randomly selected. The researcher concluded that the teacherrespondent is a Teacher-2, Social Studies major, and attained BS degree with masteral units of education. The
teacher-respondents assessed “Very Important” on the level of extent on the need for in-service training needs as
to systematic planning in teaching, pedagogical competence, assessment of learning outcomes, effective
management of classroom, use of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) and Professional
development skills. There is no significant differences when grouped according to profile variables towards
systematic planning in teaching, pedagogical competence, assessment of learning outcomes, and the use of
Information and Communication Technology (ICT) however, significant on field of specialization towards
effective management of classroom and significant on academic position towards Professional development
skills. There is no significant difference on the dimensions towards level of extent on in-service training needs
of teacher-respondents as to systematic planning in teaching, pedagogical competence, assessment of learning
outcomes, use of information and communication technology (ICT), effective management of classroom and
professional development skills.

This article examines the characteristics of school effectiveness and how the school effectiveness policy works in the context of education decentralization. The research approach is qualitative exploratory and was conducted in 2016 in 10 out of 35 districts/cities in Central Java Province. The results showed that there are eight characteristics of effective schools: effective school leadership, efficient learning processes, active community participation, a conducive school environment, increased professionalism of educators, heightened expectations of students, the commitment of teachers, which together lead to good student achievement. Local government policy has not been mentioned explicitly to build an effective school. The government system should contribute to creating effective schools through human resource development, community participation, provision of facilities and infrastructure, professional development of educators, guiding students’ and teachers' achievement, monitoring student progress, education financing to some degree, and the commitment of local governments to give appreciation to education actors.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

public secondary schools are on the rise
in the recent years. This is mainly due to
unresolved conflicts between the
students, teachers, and the school

In this study, the school administrators’ CRS
was presumed to have influence over
school development. Moreover, it was also
predicted that the way school heads
respond to conflicts may also be a factor of
his personal circumstances like age,
gender, highest educational attainment,
length of administrative service, and
religion.

22. STATISTICAL TREATMENT
Both descriptive and inferential statistics were
used in data analysis to include percentage,
weighted mean, t-test, F-test, Pearson r,
and ranking.

The extent of development of public
secondary schools in DepEd XII was
substantially observed and sustained
for a longer time while the students’
academic development was on
“average mastery” level only.
45
46. CONT…
Conflict resolution strategies such as
COMPETITION, LITIGATION AND
MEDIATION were associated to
curriculum, staff, resources, learning
environment and community-building
development.
46
47. CONT…
Conflict resolution strategies of the
secondary school administrators were
not affected by personal factors.
The inadequacy of competence on the
different conflict resolution strategies
and the limited knowledge on the
conduct of preliminary investigation
were the top concerns of school
administrators. 47
48. RECOMMENDATIONS
INTENSIVE SEMINARS for school
administrators on the fundamentals,
processes, and legal considerations of
conflict resolutions and strategies should be
organized in the Division level.
Courses or subjects in conflict management
should be INTEGRATED IN THE GRADUATE
PROGRAM CURRICULUM for Educational
Management or Administration to prepare
potential school administrators for conflict
management in school.
