AMALAN KEPIMPINAN DIGITAL DALAM KALANGAN PENTADBIR TERHADAP KOMPETENSI DIGITAL GURU GEN ‘Y’

Abstract

Today's educational landscape demands mastery of digital technology. The role of school administrators is becoming increasingly vital in promoting the digitalisation of education within their schools. Teachers' digital competence is also essential for integrating digital technology into the classroom. This study examines the level of digital leadership among school administrators and its relationship with the digital competence of Gen ‘Y’ primary school teachers in the state of Perak. Teachers were selected from each district and from various school locations to respond to a prepared questionnaire. The findings reveal that both the digital leadership level among school administrators and the digital competence level of Gen ‘Y’ teachers are high. A significant relationship was found between digital leadership and teachers’ digital competence. School administrators provide strong support and motivation to teachers in enhancing their digital competence, enabling the effective integration of digital technology into pedagogy. The implications of this study offer valuable insights and opportunities for stakeholders, including school administrators and teachers, to further strengthen digital education in today's learning environment.
