Exploring the predictor of innovative teaching using the job demands-resources model

Abstract

Introduction. To keep in pace and remain competitive in today's environment, the lecturer must do innovation in educational process. However, encouraging lecturers' willingness to do innovative teaching is challenging in higher education due to the dual roles as teachers and researchers, which makes the excessive workload and leads to the teacher-researcher role conflict (TRC). Therefore, it is crucial to analyse the impact of TRC on the innovative teaching of lecturers. The present study utilises the job demands-resources (JDR) model due to its high popularity but rarely used in higher education.Aim. This study is aimed to explore the predictor of innovative teaching by utilising the JDR model as a theoretical anchor.Methodology and research methods. This study uses structural equation modelling (SEM) to examine the research model on a random sample of 233 respondents.Results. The results indicated that teacher-researcher role conflict negatively predicted the innovative teaching of the lecturer. Besides, the occupational well-being is a mediating variable to explain the influence of teacher-researcher role conflict on innovative teaching.Scientific novelty. This study reveals innovative teaching predictors in higher education by using the JDR model as a theoretical anchor. The authors found out that teacher-researcher role conflict (TRC) was significantly related to innovative teaching. The high-level expression of TRC will reduce the lecturer's innovative behaviour on teaching activity, and vice versa.Practical significance. The current study provides critical insight into the related stakeholders, such as the universities and related ministries, regarding the negative predictor of innovative teaching. They should discover approaches to reduce the negative effect of TRC on the innovation behaviour of lecturer teaching activity and to address the problem of job role conflict.

Trajectory of Teacher Well-Being Research between 1973 and 2021: Review Evidence from 49 Years in Asia

“…In our review, although it was the least prevalent research focus, investigation of the consequences of TWB seems to have increased in the final interval [67,71]. Out of those studies of the effects of TWB, teacher personal outcomes [60] ranked the first, followed by teaching outcomes [61], student learning and outcomes [62], and school-level outcomes [64]. The scarcity of investigations with this research focus may be because the current research often regards TWB itself as an outcome variable [57,72].…”

“…The first sub-theme is teacher personal outcome (32, 78.05%); for instance, teacher task performance by Cho [60]. The second sub-theme is teaching practice (6, 14.63%); for example, teachers' innovative teaching by Rafsanjani et al [61]. The third sub-theme is student learning and outcomes (4, 9.76%); for instance, students' academic performance by Zach and Inglis [62] and emotional and disciplinary relationships by Asl Marz et al [63].…”

Optimization of Balanced Distribution of Online and Offline Biochemistry Teaching Resources Utilizing Machine Learning Algorithms and Big Data

“…Where, () k  represents the set of tasks selected from the set of tasks forming k disjoint subsets, () K  represents the amount of resources in the kth dimension of the resource processing node, and () of represents the resources required for each task [8] . Then we need to calculate the probabilistic importance of teaching resources, which is the degree to which the change in unreliability (probability of failure) of the resource teaching unit causes the change in unreliability (probability of failure) of a certain resource teaching system.…”

“…Due to the existence of resource allocation protocols, the primary user will not forcibly interrupt the resources being used by the secondary user. Therefore, using equation (8) we can obtain the average delay of the p's resource usage in this pattern [15] .…”

Teoría de las demandas y los recursos laborales en el profesorado. Una revisión sistemática

“…Por último, el conflicto de rol profesor-investigador supone una demanda que se asocia al burnout y afecta negativamente al entusiasmo laboral, a la enseñanza innovadora y al compromiso hacia la docencia (Rafsanjani et al, 2021;Van den Berg et al, 2013).…”
