Abstract

This study is aimed at identify the influence of teachers' readiness towards 21st century classroom
management among secondary school teachers in Sabah, Malaysia. The non-experimental study
utilised the survey method by combining several variable sampling techniques to obtain samples. Data
was collected through a set of adapted questionnaires administered to 439 teachers. Descriptive
analysis shows teachers’ readiness and 21st century classroom management being practised at a high
level. One-way ANOVA test results show that there is no significant difference in teachers’ readiness
and 21st century classroom management based on teaching experience. Meanwhile, multiple regression
analysis shows that there is a significant influence of teachers' readiness towards 21st century classroom
management. The findings show that the overall contribution predicted by teachers' readiness towards
21st century classroom management is 27.8 percent. Implications and recommendations for further
studies are also discussed.
