A descriptive survey design was employed, with a sample of 420 doctoral students from four regional universities. Data was collected using a structured questionnaire and analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. The findings reveal that Google Docs and Authorea are the most widely used online tools for academic writing and collaboration, followed by Overleaf and OneNote. Surprisingly, Microsoft Office 365 showed lower adoption rates. Regarding reference management software, Mendeley and Zotero emerged as the clear favourites, with EndNote and Citavi also showing significant usage. Statistical analysis indicated significant differences in the use of online tools for academic writing and collaboration and the types of reference management software used among postgraduate students. These differences could be attributed to individual preferences, institutional recommendations, or varying levels of technological literacy. The study contributes to understanding digital literacy and technology adoption in higher education in developing countries. It provides valuable insights for educational institutions, policymakers, and software developers to support postgraduate students' academic endeavours. Recommendations include implementing digital literacy programs and developing standardized sets of recommended tools to enhance research productivity and collaboration among doctoral students in North-west Nigeria.</p> 2025-01-14T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Muhammad Auwal Yakubu, Zohaib Hassan Sain, Uthman Shehu Lawal, Septian Arief Budiman, Dian Permana http://kharisma.pdtii.org/index.php/kh/article/view/68 Transformational Leadership in Education: Harmonising Accountability, Innovation and Global Citizenship 2025-01-04T21:16:15+00:00 Moses Adeleke Adeoye princeadelekm@gmail.com Hasan Baharun ha54nbaharun@gmail.com Izzatul Munawwaroh 2352600002@unuja.ac.id <p>This article explores integrating transformational leadership in educational settings, focusing on balancing accountability with innovation while fostering sustainability and global citizenship. The primary objective is to develop a theoretical framework that illustrates how academic leaders can effectively align these elements to enhance student outcomes and community engagement. A qualitative research design was employed, incorporating a literature review and case studies of five exemplary schools. The findings revealed that successful transformational leadership involves redefining accountability, promoting innovative teaching practices and embedding global citizenship into the curriculum. Key challenges include resistance to change, balancing assessment pressures and ensuring adequate professional development. However, schools implementing these strategies report can improve student engagement, academic performance, and community involvement. In conclusion, transformational leadership is essential for navigating the complexities of modern education. It empowers schools to thrive amidst accountability demands while fostering innovation and global awareness. The article recommends that educational leaders prioritise flexible assessment methods, invest in continuous professional development, and build strong community partnerships to sustain these initiatives. By adopting this comprehensive approach, schools can better prepare students to become responsible and engaged citizens in an increasingly interconnected world.</p> 2025-01-14T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Moses Adeleke Adeoye, Hasan Baharun, Izzatul Munawwaroh
