The impact of leader-member exchange, perceived organizational support, and readiness for change on job crafting behaviours in HRM in an emerging market

The International Journal of Human Resource Management, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 34(22), P. 4261 - 4290

Published: March 21, 2023

The demands of the workplace have become such that employees need to continuously change, tweak, and restructure ways in which they work. To do so, engage a process called job crafting. This is becoming so commonplace it crucial verify whether organizations are able provide climate can feel positive about changes. In this regard, leader-member exchange may create conditions necessary motivate crafting behaviours against contextual background perceived organisational support. When ready for support their organization, experience high quality exchange, engagement will be heightened. Conducted through lens social theory, our study represented an attempt integrate some important predictors behaviours—i.e. support, moderating role played by readiness change. contributes literature defining model suited revisit human resource (HR) practices policies add value HR perspective end improving effectiveness.

Augmented Reality: An Emergent Technology for Students’ Learning Motivation for Chemical Engineering Laboratories during the COVID-19 Pandemic

Sustainability, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 15(6), P. 5175 - 5175

Published: March 15, 2023

In higher education, the learning of Unit Operations in Chemical Engineering and development practical activities became a real challenge. Therefore, use emerging technologies necessary to develop laboratory due inaccessibility equipment infrastructure. this study, Project-Based Learning methodology was assisted with Augmented Reality (AR) technology for subjects. The educational experiment application basic topic course as project each subject proposed. results were presented using Zappar application, unique rubric used evaluation project. students’ motivation measured Keller’s Attention, Relevance, Confidence Satisfaction (ARCS) model by Instructional Materials Motivation Survey (IMMS). attention, confidence satisfaction demonstrate an acceptable reliability comparison relevance, which considered moderate reliability. Above 96% students that activities, materials, organization information AR caught their attention encouraged interest towards fundamentals applied Around 80% expressed concern about ease use, understood aim 85% recognized relevance usefulness, meaningful tool. 90% helped them competencies. Cronbach’s Alpha indicate IMMS instrument. Regarding IMMS, values superior 0.7, could be acceptable. For individual ARCS dimensions, alpha reached 0.94.

Innovative Professional Learning Communities and Sustainable Education Practices through Digital Transformation

Sustainability, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 16(14), P. 6250 - 6250

Published: July 22, 2024

Education is the most important part of sustainable society development. Traditional approaches to permanent lifelong educator training often fail produce lasting changes in teaching practices (UN, Goal 4). This paper examines how involvement a professional learning community (PLC) ensures equitable quality education and promotes opportunities for all digital transformation process. Participation PLC use contemporary environments positively impact educators’ work, thereby enhancing overall educational study utilised quantitative methodology, employing both descriptive inferential statistics analyse data. Results indicate that balanced integration formal structures guidance, combined with elements non-formal, broader external incentives support (such as projects), can surpass mere exchanges best practices, foster innovation, educators. approach leads shift pedagogical paradigms. The PLC_IP model (focused on including technologies effective strategies) enhances collective efficacy, contributing improved quality. For PLCs achieve sustainability, they must be dynamic entities adapt evolving landscape, ensuring their continued relevance rising completion rates over time. Our findings underscore importance innovative driving development improvement provide framework future research practical applications settings. In addition, strengthen means implementation revitalise global partnership 17).

Ongoing effects of pandemic-imposed learning environment disruption on student attitudes

Physical Review Physics Education Research, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 19(1)

Published: Jan. 5, 2023

We present a study on the development of Finnish first-year physics majors' attitudes towards physics, as measured by Colorado Learning Attitudes about Science Survey, before, during, and after period mandatory remote learning due to coronavirus pandemic. find that in years before pandemic, these did not change, but extended pandemic had negative effect students' expertlike views. Similarly, students who experienced high school displayed lower level thinking they entered university. As contact teaching resumed, moderate positive gains were seen, bridging some all gap student left pandemic.Received 29 September 2022Accepted 5 December 2022DOI:https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevPhysEducRes.19.010101Published American Physical Society under terms Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International license.
