The Effect of Teaching and Learning Based on the Impact of Supportive and Achievement Oriented Administrative Style of Head of Departments among Lecturers in Tertiary Institutions in Borno State”

“This study determines the effect of teaching and learning based on the impact of supportive and achievement-oriented administrative styles adopted by Heads of Departments (HODs) among lecturers in Tertiary institutions in Borno State, Nigeria. A correlational research design was adopted to examine the relationships between the identified variables. The sample consists of employees from five higher institutions in Borno State, selected through a simple random sampling technique. Two validated instruments (Indvik's Path-Goal Leadership Questionnaire (PGLQ) and Atsebeha's Teacher Job Performance Questionnaire (TJPQ)) were employed to measure administrative styles and the effect of teaching and learning. We employed frequency counts, simple percentages and Pearson's Product Moment Correlation Coefficient for data analysis. The study indicated a significant relationship between supportive and achievement-oriented administrative styles and effective teaching and learning. Therefore, based on the outcome of this study, we recommended that tertiary institutions actively promote and adopt leadership styles comprising supportive and achievement-oriented administrative styles among HODs.”
