Abstract:

“Technology plays a great role in innovating and renovating contemporary teaching practices. Hence, this study aimed at determining the influence of the education manager’s management skills on the advancement in technological, pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) of teachers in private junior high schools in Davao City. This study utilized a quantitative prediction research design using a survey method. The 205 teacher-respondents chosen using universal sampling answered a two-part validated online survey questionnaire which asks about the educational manager’s management skills and the teacher’s TPACK. Data were described, analyzed and interpreted using mean, standard deviation, Pearson r, and linear regression. The findings showed a very high level of management skills among educational managers and a very high level of TPACK among teachers. Standard Multiple Linear Regression Analysis using the Stepwise Method and the equation model showed that the educational managers’ management skills such as managing acculturation, managing the future, managing teaching principles, and managing teaching methods significantly predict the TPACK of private Junior High School teachers and these five management skills have relatively contributed to the variation of TPACK. Thus, there is a need to strengthen education manager’s formation programs focusing on the areas of energizing employees and teacher’s training in technology knowledge.”
