Abstract

The Corona pandemic has engendered drastic change throughout the world and schools in most countries have, relatively quickly, been required to transfer from frontal traditional learning to online learning.The research investigated the relationship between transformational leadership style and teaching mediated by school communications and moderated by sector (Jewish and Arab) in education systems in Israel during the Corona pandemic.331 Jewish and Arab teachers participated in the research, expressing attitudes on the principals' leadership, the quality of school communications and the success of their online teaching during the Corona crisis.A positive correlation was found between principals' transformational leadership style and the success of online teaching, and the quality of communications in the school mediated this correlation.It was also found that the Jewish teachers reported more successes in online teaching and that the indirect correlation between transformational leadership and successful online teaching, through the quality of school communications, was moderated by population sector, so that it was stronger among Jewish teachers in comparison to Arab teachers.These findings have significant implications to improve organisational effectiveness, especially in the transition to online learning, and especially regarding the cultural uniqueness of different sectors.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
