Investigating The Impact Of Technology Integration On Teacher Job Satisfaction And Retention In Elementary Schools: A Human Resource Management Perspective

Abstract

This study investigates the impact of technology integration on teacher job satisfaction and retention in elementary schools from a human resource management perspective. The main purpose of this study was to analyze how technology integration combined with human resource management practices affects teacher job satisfaction along with retention rates. Research employed quantitative methods for data collection from 100 teachers at elementary school levels through structured questionnaires. The research data was analyzed through regression analysis. Professional development and work environment support as human resource management practices demonstrated substantial positive effects on teacher job satisfaction according to the research findings but technology integration and teacher retention showed no statistically meaningful relationships. The research indicates that well-implemented human resources management strategies increase teacher satisfaction and retention rates yet technology implementation requires teacher-specific support to generate meaningful results. The research findings indicate that schools need to improve their HR practices to build an environment which supports teacher development and satisfaction.
