Shaping Behaviors Through Institutional Support in British Higher Educational Institutions: Focusing on Employees for Sustainable Technological Change.

Technology permeates all walks of life. It has emerged as a global facilitator to improve learning and training, alleviating the temporal and spatial limitations of traditional learning systems. It is imperative to identify enablers or inhibitors of technology adoption by employees for sustainable change in education management systems. Using the theoretical lens of organizational support theory, this paper studies effect of institutional support on education management information systems (EMIS) use along with two individual traits of self-efficacy and innovative behavior of academic employees in British higher educational institutions. Data for this cross-sectional study were collected through a questionnaire completed by 591 academic employees of 23 universities from 10 cities in the United Kingdom. Partial Least Square structural equation modeling was used to analyze data with smartPLS 3.2.9 software. Results indicate that institutional support promotes self-efficacy and innovative behavior that help develop positive employee perceptions. The model explains a 52.9% variance in intention to use. Post-hoc mediation analysis shows that innovativeness and self-efficacy mediate between institutional support and employee technology adoption behavior. As opposed to student samples in past studies on educational technology, this study adds to the literature by focusing on academic employees.

Acceptance of an online Educational Management Information System (EMIS) among Data and Information Teachers

The aim of this study is to examine the relations of usability, acceptance, ease of use, and attitude with satisfaction of Data and Information (DI) teachers in using an online EMIS for the management of data and information in school. The study used a quantitative approach based on a survey involving 120 DI teachers recruited from a secondary school in the state of Pahang, Malaysia. Pearson Correlation and Linear Regression statistical procedures were performed on the survey data. The results showed that all the four variables were highly rated, suggesting that the acceptance of the EMIS by the DI teachers is significantly high. Furthermore, there were significant positive relations of strong magnitudes among usability, ease of use, attitude, and user satisfaction of DI teachers in using the online EMIS. Also, there were significant differences in attitude and user satisfaction based on demographic factors, involving those whose ages were within 31 to 35 years and 36 to 40 years and those who had high frequency of use, respectively. Overall, these findings strongly suggest that usability and ease of use are critical factors in influencing attitude, which in turn influences user satisfaction of DI teachers to accept such an online system.

Shifting Paradigm of Education Landscape in Time of the COVID-19 Pandemic: Revealing of a Digital Education Management Information System

The COVID-19 pandemic has indirectly changed the landscape of the country’s education system. Through information-based decision-making, the management of the education system seeks to increase the access to and efficiency, effectiveness, equity and quality of education through effective systems of monitoring, evaluation, budgeting and planning. From this perspective, an Integrated National Education Information System (iNEISTM) was developed to streamline and transform business processes and to provide an application and technology platform to comply with the National Education System that may be suitable for the COVID-19 pandemic environment. The implementation of iNEIS™ aimed to significantly improve operational efficiency and productivity and provide better services, value and “holistic education” to students. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of the newly implemented, integrated iNEISTM and its implications for educational management systems that were implemented during the COVID-19 pandemic. It specifically examines the benefits and obstacles that hinder the efficiency and effectiveness of the system. The result is very interesting. These findings demonstrate that there was a lack of positive impact on end-users, such as lacking readiness to accept organizational change and uncoordinated communication and information exchange between stakeholders and end-users. This research implies that when both the stakeholder-provider and end-user understand the significance of iNEISTM, there is a great possibility that the implementation will succeed in harvesting the full value of the system. This paper provides the stakeholder-provider with useful guidelines, in the form of recommendations, that need to be implemented to ensure improvement in the effectiveness of iNEISTM.

RETRACTED: Application of English education information management system based on convolution neural network classification algorithm

In order to improve the convenience of English education management and improve the quality of teaching, this paper proposes the application of English education information management system based on convolution neural network classification algorithm. Specifically, it relies on spark cloud technology and data mining technology of cash to build an English education information management system. Secondly, in the educational information management platform, convolution neural network classification algorithm is used to mine useful information. Convolution network mainly combines the emotional words, parts of speech, degree adverbs, negatives, punctuation and other word features that affect the emotional tendency of the text to form an extended text feature. Then, the word vector feature and the extended text feature are used as two input channels of convolution neural network, and the dynamic K-max pooling strategy is adopted to improve the ability of feature extraction of the model. The experiment in the English education information management system shows that the classification performance of the algorithm in this paper is not only higher than that of the single channel convolution neural network algorithm, but also has some advantages compared with some representative algorithms. In addition, experiments verify the effectiveness of the educational information management system.

A Framework for Implementing an Education Management Information System in Tanzanian Secondary Schools to Improve Delivery of Quality Education and Students’ Academic Achievement

Globally, access to quality education is being recognized by educational scholars as a significant process of poverty eradication. In developing countries including Tanzania, access to quality education is a national goal supposed to be achieved by Tanzania Development Vision 2025. However, the practice is being hindered by the use of manual systems in administering academic activities in secondary schools. The manual systems lead to loss of data integrity, work productivity of teachers, inefficiency and ineffective collection, and dissemination of educational information required to support education policymakers in planning, monitoring, and evaluation of quality educational activities. This study used structured interviews and questionnaires to collect data from educational stakeholders of the Arusha region to investigate a cost-effective digital solution required to improve the delivery of quality education for sustainable development. After data analysis, findings revealed that Tanzanian secondary schools required to use a centralized education management information system in administering schools’ academic activities. The study concluded by formulating a cost-effective digital framework that can enhance the accurate and timely collection and dissemination of quality educational information for supporting planning, monitoring, and evaluation of the academic activities. Due to the tremendous change of technology, this study recommended all schools to adapt to the use of digital tools rather than manual systems in administering schools’ academic activities.

Optimalisasi Emis dalam Proses Data Base Pendidikan Diniyah dan Pondok Pesantren di Kementerin Agama Kabupaten Bangkalan

Abstract: Education Management Information System (EMIS) is an education management information system to support planning and policy making in Islamic-based education programs. EMIS is a program that also provides real data to support policy makers. Technology and information as data collection bases have a very important role in supporting the achievement of educational goals. With the existence of EMIS, it is hoped that the incoming data can be more accurate and continuously updated so that it can be used as a basis for decision making. This study aims to determine the optimization of EMIS in the process of data base for diniyah education and Islamic boarding schools in the Ministry of Religion, Bangkalan Regency. As EMIS is an education database, it is hoped that the incoming data will be more accurate and updated to make it easier to find information. However, the Diniyah education and Islamic boarding schools in the Ministry of Religion, Bangkalan Emis Regency have not been able to be used optimally. One of these factors is that there are still many human resources who do not fully understand how to operate an EMIS, so that there are still many institutions that have not filled in the existing data on EMIS. The method used by the researcher is descriptive qualitative method, while the data collection technique uses interviews, observation and documentation.
 Keywords: EMIS, data dase, Islamic boarding school early education.

Making the user friendly: the ontological politics of digital data platforms

ABSTRACT Mapping India’s vast, complex, and unruly education system through the systematic generation of accurate and current data, and encouraging accountability by persuading a diverse array of actors to engage with such data, is an ambitious, if not heroic, project. Yet this is what India’s Education Information Management System (EMIS), the Unified District Information System of Education (U-DISE), has set out to do. This digital platform must persuade actors in India’s 1.5 million schools to regularly upload trustworthy data to populate the database. A range of actors must be cajoled into becoming data-informed, to plan and strategize, and to enforce accountability. This paper traces how U-DISE attempts to impose its desires on a range of distributed actors, and how these actors respond to its overtures. Using concepts from Science and Technology Studies (STS), and based on interviews with the designers of U-DISE, central and state government officials, school-level data coordinators and NGOs and activists, as well as policy documents and government websites, we argue in this paper that, to realise their ambitions, digital platforms not only aim to be ‘user friendly’, but also engage in efforts to make the user friendly.

ICT Adoption in the Educational Management of Primary Schools in Kenya

Information Communication Technology (ICT) plays an important role in enhancing the quality of education. The adoption of ICT for educational management in developed countries has significantly transformed the education sector in terms of data storage, resource management, and decision making. In African countries, initially, the use of ICT in management of schools was low compared to other fields such as business and engineering, however, in recent times, school managers have embraced ICT in the education sector. In the case of Kenya, through the ministry of education, the Kenyan government has made deliberate attempts to encourage the use of ICT to revolutionize the management of schools, which is evident through the introduction of National Education Management Information System (NEMIS), putting in place an ICT policy and creation of institutional websites. However, very few primary schools have effectively adopted ICT for management with a majority using it for teaching and learning. This is attributed to a myriad of challenges facing most schools and consequently resulting in slow and low adoption rates despite its promise and potential for improving educational management in schools. As such, this paper analyses the slowness that has surrounded the adoption of ICT in the management of Kenyan schools. The focus is on the benefits of introducing ICT in educational management, the current status of ICT adoption in educational management in Kenya and barriers to the adoption of ICT in educational management of primary schools in Kenya.

Differences in the Reading Performance of Texas Grade 4 Students as a Function of Their Economic Status: A Multiyear, Statewide Analysis

In this study, the degree to which differences were present in the reading performance of Grade 4 Texas students as a function of their economic status (i.e., Not Poor, Moderately Poor, and Very Poor) was analyzed. Data obtained from the Texas Education Agency Public Education Information Management System for all Grade 4 students in Texas who took the State of Texas Assessment of Academic Readiness Reading exam, were analyzed for the 2012-2013, 2013-2014, and 2014-2015 school years. In all three years examined, statistically significant differences were established in not only overall reading performance, but also in all three Reading Reporting categories. A clear stair-step effect was present. The higher the degree of poverty, the lower student STAAR Reading test scores were. Finally, the higher the degree of poverty, the lower the percentages of students who met the passing standard on the STAAR Reading exam. Future research and implications for policy and practice are suggested.

МЕТОДОЛОГІЧНІ ЗАСАДИ РОЗРОБКИ ПОКАЗНИКІВ ДО ІНФОРМАЦІЙНОЇ СИСТЕМИ УПРАВЛІННЯ ОСВІТОЮ (EMIS) У СФЕРІ ПРОФЕСІЙНОЇ (ПРОФЕСІЙНО-ТЕХНІЧНОЇ) ОСВІТИ

The Education Management Information System (EMIS) in the TVET field is a system for collecting, storing, analysing, disseminating and using data in the TVET. The metho­dological framework for developing a system of indicators for the Education Management Information System (EMIS) in the TVET field should be guided by recognized world standards, guidelines and best practices. At the same time, it should be built on a consensus basis with national standards, which are the key to the generation and use of well-structured metadata in the TVET field. As an example of effectively functioning global Education Mana­gement Information System (EMIS) in the TVET field, the Open Education Management Information System (OpenEMIS), namely its OpenEMIS Concept Note module – TVET, the CTE National Reporting System and Workforce Training System – CTE Statistics, developed by the United States Institute of Education (IES) and published by Federico Mejer should be cited. The Interagency Vocational Education and Training Group (IAG-TVET), which includes global educational organizations, has developed guidelines for a set of indicators to help countries evaluate the effectiveness and efficiency of their TVET systems based on actual data and the use of reliable tools to evaluate TVET monitoring. IAG-TVET has identified four relevant po­licy areas in the TVET system: funding; access and participation; quality; relevance. Based on the recommendations of the above guidelines, the author has developed a system of indicators for the Education Management Information System (EMIS) in the field of TVET, which will be included in the form of the information and analytical unit "TVET System" in the Automated Information Complex of Educational Management (AICOM) of the State Scientific Institution "Institute of Educational Analytics". The system of indicators includes: the register of TVET institutions, the results of the admission campaign and training, teaching staff, logistics facilities, architectural accessibility, profitable economic activity, the creation of an innovative educational environment, the use of ICT in the educational process. The information and analytical unit "TVET System" should be institutionalized with databases of other official bodies of Ukraine, for example, with databases of the State Statistics Service, the State Employment Service etc. The data contained in the Information and Analytical Unit "TVET System" must be compatible with other international databases and allow the construction of international indicators in the TVET system.

A Novel Application of Educational Management Information System based on Micro Frontends.

With the launch of the Education Informatization 2.0 action plan by the Ministry of Education, a large number of college information systems have been born in China. Most of these systems are single page web applications (SPA) based on traditional MVC structures. Due to the complex logic and high coupling between educational businesses, developers need to write a lot of code. The education information system has many businesses and high coupling between businesses that the system often face problems such as bloated frontend businesses, iterative system updates, and difficult incremental function developments. Combined with the idea of service-oriented architecture, this paper proposes a micro frontends solution and applies it to the new generation of graduate information platform of East China Normal University, which has better agile development capabilities. From the aspects of service separation, efficient development, and incremental upgrade, this paper verifies that the architecture can well adapt to the needs of future educational management information system. The design of the micro frontends provides a new idea for the development of a new generation of education information system.

DevOps in Practice for Education Management Information System at ECNU

Abstract With the rapid development of the Internet, the education information systems have become more prevalent aligning with better management to produce better education. However, the limitations of prior education systems development are gradually exposed, which ignore the changing requirements, the high concurrency bottlenecks and lean development of education information systems. Therefore, we develop and build a novel education information system at ECNU based on DevOps and related techniques. This paper reveals the practice of DevOps for new education information system from four aspects: CI (Continuous Integration), CD (Continuous Deployment), log management, and code quality. Meanwhile, brief technical explanations include Git, Jenkins, Kubernetes, ELK, SonarQube, etc. Through our continuous engineering practice, the new education information system has been developed and implemented at ECNU. The DevOps practice for information system establishes that it is so convenient for developing, testing and release of education information systems, and it also improves reliability, availability and scalability of information platform especially considering the guarantee of efficiency.

Tackling girls dropping out of school in Malawi: Is improving household socio-economic status the solution?

This study used primary data from rural primary schools in Malawi and administrative data from the Malawi Education Management Information System to explore the impact of school bursaries and socio-economic status on girls dropping out of school. Lack of money to pay for school fees was a major reason for the high girl school dropouts. School bursaries appeared to help keep more girls in school and girls from households with better socio-economic status were less likely to drop out of school. The Malawi Government and its development partners should extend bursaries to needy girls in all secondary schools. Promotion of programmes that enhance household socio-economic status in rural areas should enable households to be financially capable of schooling their children.
