Keywords:
Agricultural Education; Agricultural Education lecturers; institutional variable, human resource supervision, teaching effectiveness, human resourceAbstract
This study was conducted to determine the extent to
which human resource supervision relates with teaching
effectiveness of Agricultural Education lecturers in Nigerian
Colleges of Education. Two null hypotheses were formulated to
guide the study. A 30-item questionnaire was structured to
obtain data for the study. Expost facto research design was
adopted for the study. Sixty three Agricultural Education
lecturers were involved in the study. The Pearson Product
Movement Correlation and Population t-test were the statistical
tools used in data analysis. The results of the study revealed that
there was significant relationship between human resource
supervision and Agricultural Education and that lecturers’
teaching effectiveness in Nigeria colleges of Education was not
significantly high with respect to teachers’ self-control, classroom
design techniques, teaching of appropriate behaviour and
students’-lecturers’ relationship. To enhance Agricultural
Education lecturers’ teaching effectiveness, it was recommended
among others that Agricultural Education lecturers should be
involved in human resource supervision in Colleges of education
in Nigeria.
