This research proposed a model of a professional learning community (PLC) of teachers’ learning management using digital technologies in basic educational institutions. The researchers divided the research study into four phases. Phase 1 studied current conditions and problems of professional learning community management of teachers’ learning management using digital technology in basic educational institutions.
The sample included 118 school administrators or academic professional teachers. For Phase 2, the researchers designed a model for digital technologies. Twelve specialists evaluated this model. Next, Phase 3 implemented the model. Finally, in Phase 4, twenty-one experts and participants evaluated the model. The research instruments consisted of a questionnaire, an interview form, and an evaluation form. Research statistics included mean and standard deviation. The research results revealed that the overall current conditions using technology in PLC were at a high level and the essential problems using technology in PLC were at a moderate level. The results of the design of a model using digital technologies consisted of five components. According to the experiment in the educational institution, it was found that administrators, teachers, and personnel could access the PLC conveniently and quickly from any location simultaneously and the overall satisfaction with the model was at the highest level. Moreover, the results of the overall evaluation of the model regarding suitability, possibility, and profitability of the model were at the highest level.
