Managerial Competence, Deep Learning, Digital LiteracyAbstract
This research is driven by suboptimal teacher digital literacy, inadequate school facilities, and the need to enhance principals’ managerial competence due to limited training and misconceptions regarding deep learning. The study aims to analyze the influence of principals’ managerial competence and teachers’ digital literacy on the readiness to implement deep learning, including the role of digital literacy as a moderating variable at public elementary schools in Kupitan District, Sijunjung Regency. The study employed a quantitative causal-associative approach involving 101 respondents selected via simple random sampling. Data were collected using Likert scale questionnaires and analyzed through simple linear regression and Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA). The research findings indicate that: Principals’ managerial competence significantly influences implementation readiness (t count 5.372 > t table 1.984); Teachers’ digital literacy significantly influences implementation readiness (t count 3.850 > t table 1.984), and; Digital literacy significantly moderates the effect of managerial competence on implementation readiness (sig. value 0.002 < 0.05). These findings underscore that the synergy between leadership and teachers’ digital proficiency is key to educational transformation in elementary schools.
