The Role of Professional Learning Communities (PLCs) in Developing Teaching Strategies from the Perspective of Teachers and Principals in Governorate Schools

The study aimed to identify the role of Professional Learning Communities (PLCs) in developing teaching strategies among teachers from the perspective of principals in governorate schools. The study population consisted of all principals of public schools in Ajloun Governorate, totaling 130 female and male principals. The study sample consisted of 62 principals, chosen using the simple random method. The results indicated that the role of Professional Learning Communities (PLCs) in developing teaching strategies among teachers, from the perspective of principals in governorate schools, was regarded as high. Additionally, the results showed significant differences in the average responses of the study sample members regarding the role of PLCs in developing teaching strategies due to the variable of experience, favoring those with less than 10 years of experience. Based on these findings, the study recommended several actions, with the most important being the promotion of a culture centered around the strategy of Professional Learning Communities.
