Abstract: |
This study examined the influence of school governance, digital proficiency, and entrepreneurial leadership on the research practices of school administrators in region 10 during the 2024-2025 school year. It assessed governance in terms of transparency, accountability, responsibility, autonomy, fairness, and participation; digital proficiency based on self-assessment, digital skills, digital tool usage, and attitude toward technology; and entrepreneurial leadership encompassing innovation, creativity, risk-taking, adaptability, and visionary thinking. The study also measured research practices in infrastructure, capability, funding, collaboration, and interest.
Findings revealed that school administrators demonstrated high levels of governance, digital proficiency, and entrepreneurial leadership, with participation in governance and innovation in leadership receiving the lowest ratings. Research practices were rated as well-practiced, but funding emerged as the least supported aspect. Correlation analysis indicated significant relationships between research practices and governance, digital proficiency, and entrepreneurial leadership, with responsibility, attitude toward digital tools, and innovation as the strongest correlates. Regression analysis identified responsibility, transparency, digital attitude, self-assessment, adaptability, and visionary thinking as key predictors of research engagement.
