This study aims to determine the profile of teacher TPACK and its effect on teacher skills in integrating ICT in online learning during the Covid-19 pandemic. The population of this study were teachers of Economics in all regions of Indonesia, while the sample obtained was 271 respondents through convenience sampling technique and using a research instrument in the form of a questionnaire with a total of 20 items. The research method used is descriptive quantitative. The results showed that the average score of the seven components of TPACK was more than 80%, namely TK, PK, CK, TPK, TCK, PCK, and TPACK respectively 81.5%, 83.1%, 87.5%, 84 .0%, 86.3%, 85.3%, and 84.1%. Then, the integration of teacher ICT during online learning consisting of preparation of ICT-based learning, process of ICT-based learning, and evaluation of ICT-based learning has an average score of 87.3%, 84.7%, and 85.4%, indicating that the average score the ICT integration of teachers is more than 84%. So it can be said that a high TPACK can affect teacher skills in integrating ICT during online learning, especially during the current Covid-19 pandemic. For future research, it is possible to test the validity of this instrument and the relationship and influence of the TPACK variable factors on the integration of ICT teachers

Career paths are no longer linear or predictable due to the instability and dynamic changes occurring in the work environment. Career researchers have acknowledged this trend and emphasized the significance of individuals’ actual behaviors in career development. Occupational engagement is an essential behavior that leads to successful and satisfactory career development in college students. The current study examined the mediating and moderating roles of work volition in the relationship between social support and occupational engagement. A total of 233 (80 males, 153 females) Korean undergraduates participated in the survey. The results were as follows: Work volition partially mediated the positive relationship between social support and occupational engagement. That is, people who felt they had higher social support reported more work volition, which in turn resulted in more active participation in occupational engagement. Also, the moderation effect of work volition was found between social support and occupational engagement. Thus, the influence of social support on occupational engagement was greater for those with an average or above level of work volition. The results showed that environmental social support and individual work volition are vital factors in improving occupational engagement. The implications and suggestions for practical uses and future research were suggested.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine, explain, predict and guide the processes, mechanisms and outcomes of intrapreneurial behaviour to provide evidence that novelty ecosystems mediate the relationships between generative influence, positive deviance and intrapreneurial behaviour. It also enlightens the capacity of replicating the intrapreneurial best practices. Design/methodology/approach The study uses an integrated approach of entrepreneurship and complexity theories. Its subjects were full-time designated university employees in the Republic of Kenya. A total number of 244 employees were selected using snowball sampling technique from ten public and private universities in the Kenya. A self-administered questionnaire was used to collect data. Findings The structural equation modelling path analysis and the bootstrapping results confirmed full mediation of novelty ecosystems in the relationship between generative influence and intrapreneurial behaviour. The findings, further, verified that novelty ecosystems partially mediate the relationship between positive deviance and intrapreneurial behaviour. Research limitations/implications Subjective appraisals were used, despite the fact that studied variables are ultimately based on what employees perceive. Future research should generate and include more objective measures. Practical implications Intrapreneurial behaviour can only be explained and predicted through novelty ecosystems. University leaders need to fully understand and facilitate novelty ecosystems. Social implications A deeper understanding of the power of generative influence, positive deviance and novelty ecosystems will not be fully realized until researchers devote as much energy and attention to facilitation as has been devoted to conflict. Originality/value This study extends existing intrapreneurial research into complexity approach.

Purpose This paper aims to intend to ascertain whether corporate social responsibility (CSR) can serve as an effective promotional tool for the Malaysian halal certified companies in the era of Covid-19 pandemic. Starting from being nice to do, the emergence of the Covid-19 pandemic has brought CSR to the forefront of businesses, forcing them to rapidly shift from profit maximisation to business preservation. Thus, it is practically crucial to ascertain whether CSR could be effectively used to promote halal brands in this era. Design/methodology/approach To achieve the stated aim, a survey questionnaire was developed and used to collect data from 295 participants who are familiar with the concepts of CSR and halal in Malaysia. The data collected were analysed using both descriptive and inferential statistics. Findings The findings reveal that the commitment to halal best practices, zakat and charitable donations, environmental responsibility, employee welfare and responsible dealings with clients are the most important CSR activities that can promote halal certified companies in the era of Covid-19. Whilst there is a positive relationship between halal economic responsibility and CSR as a promotional tool, such relationship is not significant. Nevertheless, the relationship between legal responsibility and CSR as a promotional tool is negative and insignificant. Research limitations/implications Limitations are inevitable in any study where a convenient sampling technique is used. Respondents from Klang Valley in Malaysia make up a large proportion of the study’s sample. This may consequently limit the generalisability of the findings of this study. Hence, future research should adequately collect data from other cities in Malaysia. Moreover, this paper does not differentiate between perceptions of Muslims and non-Muslims or between male and female; this might have an effect, as Muslims are likely to favour most of the items in the questionnaire used to collect data for this study. Thus, future research may collect sufficient data to shed more light on this issue. Originality/value The researchers have revealed that CSR is an effective promotional tool for the Malaysian halal certified companies in the era of Covid-19 pandemic. Study of this nature is rare in academic literature.

The main purpose of the study is to know the practices of servant leadership (SL) in the context of Bangladesh. Specifically, the study explores the fitness of SL constructs in a developing country like Bangladesh. Data were collected using SL scale developed by Van Dierendonck and Nuijten from 432 respondents working in the different branches of private commercial banks of Bangladesh. The convenience sampling technique was used for selecting the respondents. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was applied for analyzing the data. It was revealed that SL is partially practices in the context of Bangladesh. All the constructs of SL are well fit with little modification in empowerment and forgiveness. The main implication of the study is that the SL has crossed the cultural applicability even in developing countries like Bangladesh, which has a cultural difference with any other Western country. The study also pointed out limitations and future research directions.
