Type: article
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: Teaching productivity is one of the key factors in improving the quality of education in Indonesia. This study aims to analyze the effect of principals' academic supervision and teachers' pedagogical competence on teaching productivity in Junior High Schools (SMP) in Bogor Regency. Using a correlational survey method with a quantitative approach, this study involved 124 teachers taken from various sub-districts using a stratified random sampling technique. The results of the analysis indicate that there is a significant influence between academic supervision and pedagogical competence on teacher teaching productivity. Principals' academic supervision has a correlation coefficient of 0.800 and teachers' pedagogical competence shows a correlation coefficient of 0.818, both of which contribute greatly to increasing teaching productivity. The combination of these two factors contributes 74.6% to teaching productivity. Based on these findings, this article recommends strengthening principal development policies with effective supervision training and developing teachers' pedagogical competence through ongoing training. In addition, it is recommended that local governments conduct periodic evaluations of principal and teacher performance to ensure better quality of education.
