Systems Model

This study replicated an earlier study conducted by Tarter and Hoy (2004) in which an open systems model was used to test a series of hypotheses that explained elements of school performance. Four internal system elements (structure, individual, culture, and politics) of the school were used to explain two sets of school outcomes (student achievement and teachers’ assessment of overall school effectiveness) in a sample of 110 Catholic elementary schools in one Northeastern city. Correlational and multiple regression analyses were used to test the relationships. The results of this study further confirmed the usefulness of this model in understanding the factors that contribute to quality in elementary schools.

Do So

Modern preventive pediatrics recognizes that the school life of the child is one of the important environmental forces affecting his total well-being. Learning difficulties, or any problems interfering with adequate functioning in school, thus enter within the province of pediatric care. While the cause of a learning difficulty may be purely educational, to be handled adequately by the school authorities, the problem is frequently more complex and involves a variety of physical, emotional, or social factors. The pediatrician, through his close acquaintance with the child, his family, and their environment, is in the strategic position to seek and co-ordinate the services needed for the correction of these multi-faceted problems. In order to do so he must be thoroughly acquainted with the many factors which may interfere with a child's school performance so that he can correctly evaluate the problem and find the appropriate avenue for help in the individual child.

Interest And Motivation

The paper presents the results of research regarding interest and motivation of pupils in elementary schools in Niš for choral singing. The motive for this research is the data on the reduced number of school choirs participating in competitions in Niš in the last ten years. The research was conducted in October and November of 2018/2019 school year in five elementary schools in Niš. A total of 100 pupils in upper grades (V to VIII grade) were interviewed, 50 of whom were members of the school choir and 50 who were not members of the school choir. The obtained results show that pupils' motivation for choral singing is influenced by certain social factors (curricula, socialization, gender, grade, success), while factors related to genre preferences do not influence the attitude towards choral singing. Considering the results of the research, it is considered that the pupil's participation in the choir is very important for her/his personal psycho-physical development and socialization. Therefore, the role of school, teachers and parents should be enhanced to increase pupil's motivation for group/choral singing.

The Relationship

The aims of this study were to determine the perceptions of school climate, teachers’ commitment and school performance held by principals, teachers and parents and the relationship among these variables. Thirty elementary schools of the third congressional district of Bohol consisting of 200 teachers, 30 principals and 60 parents who were randomly sampled took part in the study. The teachers and parents completed two survey instruments: Organizational Health Inventory for elementary schools (OHI-E) from Hoy and Tarter to examine school climate and Organizational Commitment Questionnaire (OCQ)from Celep to test teachers’ commitment, while the principals were made to answer an additional questionnaire that solicits data regarding the school performance. With the school as the unit of analysis, the OHI-E outlined and measured five elements related to school climate (teacher affiliation, institutional integrity, collegial leadership, resource influence and academic influence). Those five were the independent variables used for the study. The dependent variables were the teachers’ commitment with regard to the commitment to school, teaching profession, pupils and work group; and school performance measured by graduation, retention, promotion, participation, repetition, failure, drop-out rates and the National Achievement Test Result. Data were analyzed using frequency count and simple percentage calculation. Weighted mean score was used to assess the level of school climate, teachers’ commitment and school performance. Furthermore, parametric test like Pearson Product-Moment Correlation (rxy) was used to determine the degree of relationship between school climate and the teachers’ commitment; while Spearman Rank Correlation (rs) was used to determine the relationship of school climate and school performance. Results indicated that school climate is related to teachers’ commitment and school performance. These findings have significant implications for the implementation of change in schools, motivation, productivity, well-being, and learner achievement.
