Paper Abstract:
|
The integration of teaching and learning technologies has been crucial catalysts for undergoing teaching and learning
innovations. However, in many higher education institutions, these integration potentials have neither been consistently
nor systematically used. The implementation of innovative teaching-learning technological change in higher education
remains a significant challenge. Previous studies suggest that universities need to embrace the role of academic leaders for
its effective implementation. We used 74 Mid-Level Academic Leaders (MLALs) from selected universities to show how
MLALs attributes influence the managerial-leadership competencies for enhancing the influence the integration of
Innovative Teaching-Learning Technological change (ITLTs). Our results suggest that MLALs have a relatively low
competency level for motivating the adoption and execution of ITLTs change. Seemingly, the overall competency level for
managing the integration of ITLTs change found to be relatively low. Furthermore, the results suggest that age, leader
experience, leadership position and prior knowledge are essential factors influencing the managerial competency level for
leading ITLTs change among mid-level academic leaders. Thus, this study recommends integrating ITLTS in higher to
consider leaders' experience throughout the process. |
