Abstract
The purposes of this research were to: 1) study the actual and desired states of academic management development of secondary schools based on the concept of financial literacy; and 2) study the priority needs in academic management development of secondary schools based on the concept of financial literacy. The population was 2,361 schools under the Office of the Basic Education Commission. The samples were 331 schools, selected by stratified random sampling and simple random sampling. The informants were principals and teachers who performed the head of academic affairs, totaling 662 people. The research instrument was a 5-level rating scale questionnaire with 0.984 actual state reliability and 0.944 desirable state reliability. The data were analyzed by mean, standard deviation, and Modified Priority Needs Index (PNImodified).
The results revealed; 1) The actual states were at a moderate level overall, with terms of schools’ curriculum development having the highest average, followed by teaching and learning management, and measurement and evaluation having the lowest average. As for the desirable state, overall, it was at a high level. The desirable states of teaching and learning management had the highest average, followed by the schools’ curriculum development and measurement and evaluation, which had the lowest average. 2) The overall needs in academic management development of secondary schools based on the concept of financial literacy had PNImodified = 0.168, arranged as follows: No. 1 was teaching and learning management, No.2 was measurement and evaluation, and No.3 was schools’ curriculum development.
