Abstract:
This research sought to assess the extent of technology leadership of school heads and its relationship to the extent of technology integration of teachers in selected Science high schools in the National Capital Region, Philippines. The respondents of the study were six (6) school heads and two hundred seventy three (273) teachers from six (6) Science high schools: SciHS A, SciHS B, SciHS C, SciHS D, SciHS E, and SciHS F. The data were gathered through two (2) researcher-made survey questionnaires adapted and modified from the Principals Technology Leadership Assessment (PTLA) and the Levels of Teaching Innovation (LoTI) Digital Age Survey. The survey questionnaires underwent validation, pilot-testing, and reliability testing using Cronbach's Alpha. Percentage, weighted mean, Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient, chi-square, t-test for independent means, and analysis of variance were used for statistical treatment. The results of the study revealed that the school heads' extent of technology leadership across all areas ranges from partial to full implementation; and, the extent of technology integration of teachers across all areas is being implemented "most of the time." It was also found out that the profile of school heads are not associated with their technology leadership. On the other hand, only the highest educational attainment out of all profile variables was found significantly related to the teachers' extent of technology integration. Furthermore, there was no significant relationship between technology leadership of school heads and technology integration of teachers. The study also revealed that there were no significant differences among school heads when grouped according to their profile; and, there was a significant difference between teachers' assessment of and school heads' self-assessment on their technology leadership.
