The methodology used in this research is the descriptive analytical approach based on the induction and data analysis. The research concluded that observing the purposes of Shariah at developing educational programs requires the attention to the reality of religious, social, economic and cultural society, and that the administrative development is a basic pillar for any educational development in the university institutions. This can be done through the planning, organizing, leading, controlling and evaluating the performance.

ABSTRACT This paper discusses the role of classroom observations in informing debates on the quality of teaching and learning in secondary education. Specifically, the document proposes a methodology for classroom observation in context (CoC) to address many of the epistemological limitations of mainstream input-output observation models in relation to the professionalisation of educators. To observe in context entails working with a non-structured observation strategy to identify patterns in classroom events and the subsequent opening of spaces for collaborative dialogues (among observers and between observes and observees) to reflect about the potential mechanisms behind these patterns. The results of an exploratory study of CoC in Northern Colombia indicate the potential of such a strategy in informing education policy debates beyond the classroom setting.

School Based Management

The extent of the role of teachers’ pedagogical competence on the practice of school-based management (SBM) was explored in this study. Interviews have been conducted in order to collect the qualitative data from the participant in Pare-Pare, South Celebes, Indonesia. It was discovered that the teachers’ pedagogical competence has not been developed as it was expected. Accordingly, it was reported that teachers’ creativity was limited by the domination of the government’s interference. It is suggested that in order to improve the quality of SBM, teachers’ continuing professional development is highly required.

Effective Supervision

Zimbabwe has achieved quantitative expansion in education. The focus is now on achieving academic excellence. One of the ways of improving the quality of education is instructional supervision. Effective supervision of instruction, through changing teacher behaviour, can improve the quality of teaching and learning in the classroom. The basis of authority a supervisor has in a school is one of the supervisory dimensions that could impinge directly on the supervisor-supervisee relationship. Two major bases of authority in a school organization may be identified, namely, formal and informal authority, and both influence supervisee’s behaviour. The study sought to investigate which of the two bases of authority (formal and informal) is perceived by school heads and teachers in Zimbabwe to be more effective during instructional supervision. The investigation employed the survey research design. The study was conducted in 628 schools: 298 in Greater Harare, an urban province, and the 330 schools in Mashonaland Central, a predominantly rural province. Harare being the largest city was specifically selected as a typical urban province; while Mashonaland Central, with many responsible authorities, was specifically chosen to represent a predominantly rural province. The sample size was 729 school heads and teachers randomly chosen as follows: 368 from Greater Harare and 361 respondents from Mashonaland Central Province. Data were analysed using the SPSS. The findings showed that school heads and teachers perceived Informal Basis of Authority in instructional supervision as more effective while Formal Basis of Authority was perceived as generally not quite effective. The study recommended that supervisors broaden their supervisory influence, power and formal authority base by tapping into the informal organisation resource. Therefore, they should possess and tap both their expert and referent authorities, so as to augment and buttress their formal positional authority.

Innovative educational technologies have revolutionized the methods of teaching and learning. Recently, with advancements of artificial intelligence, higher education has begun to adopt new technologies. This conceptual review paper aims to investigate the emergence of using artificial intelligence in teaching and learning in education. It examines the educational consequences of emergent technologies on how institutions teach and the way students learn. This study intends to predict the role of artificial intelligence in the future nature of education in a world. The effective application of artificial intelligence methods is considered as a means of improving the quality of teaching and learning. However, the challenges of integrating artificial intelligence in educational institutions is addressed. Moreover, the challenges faced by students in adopting artificial intelligence in terms of students’ support, teaching, learning, and administration are discussed.  This paper presents a concise overview of the most recent studies to showcase the application of artificial intelligence in educational contexts. The implications and directions for further research are suggested.

Traditional Homework

The article discusses the role of homework as one of the important components of assessing student achievement in the process of monitoring the quality of teaching and learning, because it is the quality of homework that provides important information about the individual progress of the student. Emphasis is placed on the importance of homework for the student to develop comprehension of learning materials and problem-solving skills independently.Based on the results of the research, the difficulties that accompany homework are analyzed. The role and responsibility of the teacher is defined to determine and take into account the optimal volume and complexity of homework, which is extremely important for achieving the main goals of learning and upbringing.The author focuses on the questions: What factors influence this process? What individual characteristics can students have? In what environment do they have to do their homework? How much volume and difficulty should homework be given so that the student does not lose interest and belief in their own strengths? Should a parent intervene in the homework process or not? Analysis of the data shows that only a small proportion of students have the opportunity to isolate themselves from family members during their studies. Most do not have a suitable work space to do their homework, study in a common room, with the TV on and talking to family members, or in the kitchen.The author believes that it is advisable to plan and implement interventions to help both students and parents. Finally, some examples of „non-traditional“ homework are suggested, as well as interventions to help parents.
