Urgensi Manajemen Dalam Pengelolaan Pendidikan Islam
Abstract
Managing the formal process of imparting knowledge and skills, widely known as education, is not an easy task. There are many factors to consider, as well as opportunities to grab and threats to look out for. As said, education is the formal process in which sets of knowledge and skills are passed from instructors, teachers and professors to students. To expedite this process, there is a need to manage all concerned affairs, including those not directly related to teaching -- education management. Education management deals with administering all the affairs inside an academe. Usually, education managers are not given teaching assignments, and if they were, their loads were minimal so as to have them focus on the affairs of the school. Professors, instructors and other members of the teaching faculty are usually made to focus on their task as passers of knowledge and skills. The non-teaching affairs of the academe – including handling teaching salaries, maintenance of school buildings, equipment and ground, as well as doing other transactions – are left for education managers to mind. Education managers make the job easier for the teaching staff by handling the school’s problems and affairs alike.
