Abstract

The phenomenon of datafication in schools has significantly transformed educational administration, introducing a new governance logic that shifts between centralized and decentralized regulatory models through interconnected systems. However, the adoption of datafication in education is influenced by socio-cultural factors, particularly when models shaped by Anglo-American practices are applied to countries like Indonesia, where cultural and social conditions differ. This research focuses on school readiness for implementing datafication, especially in learning evaluations through e-reporting (e-raport), and examines the disparities between urban and rural schools in this context. Using a qualitative methodology, this study explores the experiences of stakeholders involved in implementing e-raport systems. The research progresses through four stages: (a) initial investigation, involving field surveys and team discussions; (b) design, focusing on developing interview formats and questions; (c) construction, where data is collected, classified, and processed; and (d) evaluation and revision, incorporating triangulation for data validation. Findings reveal distinct differences in readiness for datafication between urban and rural schools. Urban schools demonstrate greater adaptability due to better infrastructure, access to training, and a more receptive technological culture. However, challenges such as age-related resistance among older teachers persist. In contrast, rural schools struggle with limited infrastructure and a less technology-oriented culture, further hindering their ability to adapt. This highlights the importance of addressing both infrastructural and socio-cultural readiness, particularly through targeted education and training programs, to ensure equitable implementation of datafication across diverse school contexts.
