Popis: | 106 Faced with the era of Industry 4.0 and the implementation of the "12-year Basic Education" policy, the principals had to acquire the leadership to cope with the inevitable trend. The essence of education should be reverted to the primary education with "student- centered" as the foundation of learning. For this regard, having considered the implementation of principals’ leadership for learning in theory and in practice, the issue of constructing a model learning mode for primary school principals was worth studying. This study depicted the structure of the public primary schools to explore the system model of excellent principals’ leadership for learning based on a holistic viewpoint of system thinking. The purposes of the study included five parts. The first was to analyze the connotation and theoretical framework of principal's leadership for learning. The second was to explore the status of public primary school practicing principals’ leadership for learning. The third was to analyze the differences in the perception of teachers from different background variables towards the behavior of principals’ leadership for learning. The fourth was to explore the plight of principals in practicing leadership for learning and the corresponding strategies. The fifth was to construct the system model of principal’s leadership for learning of public primary school. To achieve the above purposes of the study, the research had conducted a questionnaire survey on the perception of public primary school teachers towards the behavior of principals’ leadership for learning in Taichung City. Besides, the semi-structure interview was used focusing on five principals who met the high level of leadership for learning to understand the plight of principals who possessed excellent leadership for learning and their corresponding strategies. Finally, the "model of qualitative causality" of system dynamics was adopted to construct a system model of principals’ leadership for learning in primary schools. The findings of this study were set out below: 1.The connotations of principal's leadership for learning comprised six aspects including establishing learning visions, acquiring and using resources, shaping the learning environment, valuing learning effectiveness, developing professional of teacher, and molding learning culture. 2.The perception of public primary school teachers towards the status of principals’ leadership for learning in Taichung City was at a middle and high degree. 3.In terms of different seniority of the principals, school size and gender, the perception of primary school teachers towards the behavior of principals’ leadership for learning showed no significant difference in general performance. In terms of different school districts, teacher status and different types of teaching qualification, the perception of primary school teachers towards the behavior of principals’ leadership for learning showed significant difference in general performance. 4.The research result showed the plight and the corresponding strategies of principals’ leadership for learning in primary school, as well as the constructing of its system model. Eventually, based on the findings, this study put forward the relevant proposals for the competent education authorities, primary school principals, and for reference of any follow-up studies. |
