This document summarizes a study that examined teachers' personality types as determinants of classroom management in Lagos State, Nigeria. 180 teachers from 15 schools completed questionnaires on their personality and classroom management strategies. Results showed that teachers in Lagos State predominantly have an open personality type and are generally effective in classroom management. Statistical analysis revealed significant relationships between teachers' personality and their classroom management approaches, both overall and when analyzed by gender. The study provides insight into how teachers' innate personality traits impact their ability to manage student behavior and learning environments.
Classroom Management The Challenge of Changeijtsrd
Undesirable behavior is inevitable inside and outside the school premises. This research addresses the importance of classroom management as one of the important factor that prevents the occurrence of undesirable behavior of the learners. Based on the findings, the ideal classroom management practices lead and connect teachers and learners to meet the model desirable behavior inside and outside the school premises. Indicators include Establishing clear learning outcomes, behavior management and maximizing in giving praise to the learners. Classroom management has shown to be one of the most important factors that teachers need to consider before the school year. The data has shown that in dealing with students behavior, teacher must develop a strategy that not just only address a single behavior but a multi strategy that meet the needs of the learners.

A good relationship between teachers and students can positively influence
the subjective well-being of teachers. However, in the context of middle
school setting, a good relationship with students was considered as an
effortful attempt for teacher to maintain which was related to the teacher
well-being too. It was said that the more teaching experience the teacher has,
the easier for them to navigate their relationship with students. Therefore,
this study aimed to test whether the teaching experience moderate the impact
of the teacher-student relationship to the teacher subjective well-being. The
teacher-student relationship was measured using the Student-Teacher
Relationship Scale (STRS), while the teacher subjective well-being was
measured by the Teacher Subjective Well-Being Questionnaire (TSWQ).
Respondents in this study were 289 teachers at the middle school level from
both junior high school and senior high school or equivalent. The analysis
technique used was a simple moderation analysis. The result showed that
there was a positive relationship between the teacher-student relationship, the
teacher subjective well-being, and teacher experience. However, this study
indicated that there was no moderation role of the teaching experience in
weakening or strengthening the close teacher-student relationship impact on
the teacher well-being.

An effective teaching contributes to the students’ performance and this
depends on qualified-trained teachers, school administration, parents and
conducive environment for teaching and learning. It is proven that students
are more successful in their academic achievements, in the societies where
teachers perceive their profession as their job. This paper explores the impact
of the society’s perception on teachers’ professionalism. The method
employed in this paper is qualitative by using interview technique and used
audio-recorded to ensure a complete transcript. The result indicated that in
some developing countries including Cameroon, Kenya and Fiji has various
reasons for their job. Teaching profession was affected by how the society
considers teachers whereby they are perceived as disadvantaged population
who cannot fully take part in the social and economic activities due to the
fact that their salary is very low compared other public servants. This low
salary and loss of respect of teachers by the society lead to the job
dissatisfaction and made the teaching profession as a transitional job before
waiting to move to another different professional field.

Unit One Reflection
For this week’s journal entry reflect on your teaching experience. In both the Marzano and Jones textbooks, the authors stress the importance of focusing on classroom policies and procedures at the beginning of the school year in order to achieve a good start. How closely do you attend to the types of procedures discussed by these authors and what might you do differently in terms of planning and instructing in the future as a result of the readings? I work with students who are only assigned to my caseload; therefore I’m not closely involved in school wide/teacher planning. However, at times I participate in Intervention meetings with the Principal, Assistant Principal, teacher(s), School psychologist, School social worker and sometimes the parent. During the meetings, I offer strategies for classroom management behaviors. If a student is a candidate for ADHD or any disability, I arrange for psychological testing to assess whether possible ADHD or emotional factors are interfering with the student’s academic performance, provide feedback to the parents, and school officials regarding the psychological evaluation. I also consult with parents and school officials about designing effective learning programs for intervention strategies that build on his strengths and compensate weaknesses.
Unit Two Reflection
The "Dealing with the Dilemma of Gum Chewing" case study provides an example of how we can teach productive behaviors. After completing this week's reading, reflect on where this type of strategy might apply in your setting.
•Have you encountered situations in your setting where this approach may be more productive than what you have been doing? In the Kindergarten class, the students continue to struggle with picking up cut paper. Instead of having the students cut paper, the teacher showed the class how to fold the paper and use the edge of their desk to cut. After several times of redirecting, the students were able to begin using the scissors again. The students developed a system in the class where 1 person from each table (red, blue, purple, yellow) collects the paper straps.
•What are the ethical issues involved in establishing expectations without teaching the appropriate expected behaviors? Ethical issues continue to be an ongoing issue today in schools and without providing detailed expectations teachers leaves room for issues and concerns. Misinforming, consents, students getting hurt, etc. could happen. Students could always say they were not informed and the responsibility falls back on the teacher. I think in this situation communication is vital.
Unit Three Reflection
During Unit 2, you designed Mini-Intervention 1. For this unit's journal reflection, take time to reflect on how well or how poorly the intervention is working. Reflect on your learning’s so far in the course in the area of managing unproductive behaviors.

Teacher Professional Competence and Elementary School Student Creativity in S...AJHSSR Journal
ABSTRACT: The implementation of the 2013 Curriculum in the primary school education system in
Indonesia aims to develop students' creativity as one of the 21st-century skills. This research describes the
correlation between the teachers’ professional competence and the primary school students’ creativity. The
problem in this research is whether the students’ creativity is correlated with the teachers’ professional
competence in primary schools. Data were collected by distributing questionnaires to 1281 students in 26
primary schools. The teachers’ professional competence questionnaire consists of 6 items while the students’
creativity questionnaire consists of 14 items. The research samples were taken at simple random. The data
analysis method used Spearman correlation description analysis. Based on the results of the Spearmen
correlation test, it was found that: (1) there was a significant correlation between the teachers’ professional
competence and the elementary school students’ creativity; (2) category of correlation between the teachers’
professional competence and the students’ creativity was weak; (3) the direction of the correlation between the
teachers’ professional competence and the students’ creativity was positive. The correlation between the
teachers’ pedagogic competence and the students’ creativity shows the need for efforts to increase the teachers’
professional competence to increase the primary school students’ creativity.

The Mediating Effect of Sense of Efficacy on the Relationship Between Instruc...charisseasoncion1
The primary objective of this study was to determine the role of teacher self-efficacy in mediating the
relationship between teachers' instructional practices and organizational commitment.
This systematic literature review (SLR) aimed to investigate the potential of digital online game-based learning (DOGBL) to enhance motivation in English as a foreign language (EFL). Online gaming has grown in popularity among students, opening up the possibility of using games as powerful instructional resources. Academic achievement depends on motivation, and this study, led by self-determination theory (SDT), explored how external rules, like rewards and recognition, could increase motivation in EFL utilizing DOGBL. The study used the SLR method, examining databases and choosing articles based on predetermined criteria. The chosen publications were examined in-depth, and a preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses (PRISMA) diagram was employed for analysis. For results, DOGBL could enhance teaching EFL by providing flexible and interesting learning environments. Key elements in motivating in DOGBL included game design, personalization, social engagement, curricular integration, and instructor assistance. As a promising method to improve EFL instruction, game-based learning, especially DOGBL, saw considerable developments between 2018 and 2023. Thus, these ground-breaking techniques transformed the way people learn English vocabulary and provided a fun and engaging way to learn the language. For educators and students, the potential for DOGBL to change EFL education is still exciting as technology develops.
The development of postmodern-era technology in the world of education is increasingly sophisticated, thus impacting the character of students and their social environment. Technological progress negatively affects the lives of today's generation. When misuse of technology is widespread, it is imperative to strengthen cultural and religious filtration. So that the influence of globalization on technological development can be minimized. So as not to damage the cultural values and morality of students as the next generation of the nation. This study aims to explain the importance of transforming the values of Bima's local wisdom "Nggusu Waru" through the media of social studies e-books. The results and conclusions of this study are efforts to develop students' social character that require teacher collaboration, supervision, and optimal parental attention so that their interest in learning is higher and minimizes deviant behavior. This research method uses research and development design. At the stage of preliminary studies with models developed by Borg and Gall. Through several stages of research, information gathering, development of initial forms of products, and initial field testing. In this step, data is collected through interviews, observation and documentation. The data is analyzed to find out some of its weaknesses and shortcomings.

This research investigated the pre-service teachers’ self-regulation, selfefficacy, and mathematics performance in blended learning during the post Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic in a state university using a descriptive correlational design. There were 201 pre-service teachers who were identified using simple random sampling. They answered the two-set survey questionnaire, which assessed their self-regulation and self-efficacy, while their performances were assessed using their grades in the subject. The data gathered were treated using descriptive and inferential statistics. The results revealed that they had high self-regulation while they had a very high level of self-efficacy. At the same time, they had a very satisfactory performance in mathematics. Moreover, their self-regulation in terms of planning, monitoring, and adjusting was significantly correlated with their math performance while reflecting is not. However, no significant relationship was found between their self-efficacy and mathematics performance. Thus, instructors are encouraged to conduct monitoring during blended learning to encourage pre-service teachers to maintain their high level of self-regulation and self-efficacy in learning mathematics. In addition, future researchers may explore the same variables to validate the findings of the study because these findings are limited only to pre-service teachers and were conducted during the post COVID-19 pandemic.
This study explores the correlation between technology utilization and language acquisition while analyzing the impact of moderating variables on this relation. Our meta-analysis approach analyzes data from 43 extracts out of 19 primary studies published between 2012 and 2021. Our data analysis employs a random-effect model utilizing a significance level of α = 0.05. Additionally, the authors examine four moderating variables: level of education, location of research, proficiency in language, and year of publication. Technology-based language acquisition outperforms traditional methods, indicating a significant and moderate impact on the learning process. This study enhances comprehension of the efficacy of technology in language acquisition by identifying various factors, such as the geographical location of research, methods of assessing language proficiency, and technology type employed. However, there is insufficient evidence to support the notion that educational level or sample size significantly impact technology-based language acquisition. This meta-analysis highlights the importance of considering nuanced factors when integrating technology into language learning. The findings emphasize the possibility of technology to transform methods of acquiring language and urge additional investigation into customized strategies that optimize its advantages.
Effective science instruction in a blended learning approach is synonymous with the strategic use of instructional videos (IVs) to fill the gap in teacher support. This study aims to determine the IVs’ effectiveness in improving students' concept retention and overall learning experiences. The experimental group was exposed to instruction integrating IVs via embedded mixed-method design, whereas the control group was exposed to traditional lecture methods. The results showed that students' post-test scores and concept retention improved significantly in the experimental group, where students reported better learning experiences than in the control group. This beneficial effect of a technology-integrated approach can be attributed to various elements of IVs, such as engaging content, motion graphics, video length, the language used, and the speaker's perspective. This study recommends that IVs be used to enhance learning opportunities and results in the teaching and learning process.
Higher order thinking skills (HOTS) are an important element in facing the challenges of the 21 st-century. Difficulty in solving problems systematically, facing challenges in an organized manner, and being unable to design original solutions are due to the low HOTS that students have. HOTS ability can improve students who low-level thinking skills in several ways, for example, through learning integrated with media, practice, and assessment or HOTS-based cognitive assessment. The purpose of this study was to develop and implement a HOTS-based cognitive assessment to assess students' HOTS abilities. The device development model used is an adaptation of the analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation (ADDIE) model. The research sample consisted of 30 students in class 11 of the Governance and Office Automation Competency Program of Vocational High School 1 Kudus. The result is that 11 students have the HOTS ability with very good criteria, 17 well criteria, and 2 enough criteria. This study suggests that a test instrument for further research is to measure students' HOTS ability. The Experts conclude that HOTS-based cognitive assessment can be used as an approach to improve students' HOTS to actively think selectively and supported by logical argumentation.
The background of this research is the need for teacher innovation in developing digital-based learning media in Indonesian language learning. The research method used is research and development (R&D) with the analysis, design, develop, implement, and evaluate (ADDIE) model, which consists of five research stages: analysis, planning, development, implementation, and evaluation. Data collection techniques are questionnaires, in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation that present the results regarding innovation, features, applications, and the impact of using the benkangen game in learning Indonesian in elementary school. The subjects of this study were 25 teachers from 25 elementary schools, and 66 students from 10 elementary schools in Magelang district and Magelang city. The results showed innovation in the development of game applications based on Magelang local wisdom with game features in the form of puzzles of Magelang culture and local wisdom, Indonesian language learning materials packaged in the form of questions accompanied by the number of points in each answer, and audio that reflects local wisdom in Central Java. The novelty of this research is the development of the benkangen game based on Magelang local wisdom, which still needs to be developed by teachers in Indonesia. Future research needs to explore the innovation of Indonesian language learning games through the latest software.
The specific processes, techniques, and actions that learners take to facilitate their language learning have been widely explored under the concept of language learning strategies (LLS); however, more exploration is needed about recent investigations in this area, as calls for new theorization of strategies research have emerged. This systematic literature review aimed at exploring the prevailing research methodologies and educational settings appertaining to LLS in English as foreign language (EFL) contexts. The study analyzed 42 articles published from 2017 to 2023 in journals in the field of social sciences in the Scopus and ERIC databases. The findings show how non-intervention quantitative approaches are predominant in LLS research, occasionally accompanied by qualitative data collection methods. Accordingly, most research has favored descriptive and correlational designs, identifying the relationships between the use of strategies and variables such as language proficiency, demographic aspects, motivation, and self-regulation. Grounded on the revision of existing evidence, this article advises future strategy-based research to focus on primary and secondary levels of education, strategy instruction, cultural aspects, and qualitative research designs.
This study aimed to i) analyse learning problems in science at boarding schools for junior high school students and ii) determine the effectiveness of science learning in the context of Islamic teachings using the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics, -religion (STEM-R) approach to improve reflective and critical thinking skills. The research method applied in this study was a sequential exploratory mixed method. The research design consisted of five stages: i) qualitative data gathering, ii) qualitative data analysis, iii) quantitative data gathering, iv) quantitative data analysis, and v) data interpretation. The subjects of this study were 192 students from boarding schools and were divided into 6 groups. The research results obtained were the school, parents, science teachers and religion teachers’ vision and mission causing students to like or dislike science. An excellent teacher is viewed by students as someone who can make learning enjoyable, exhibit creativity in presenting educational material, possess the ability to motivate, link science and religion, engage in investigative activities, infuse humour, establish connections between science and everyday life, and communicate concepts effectively. Moreover, distinctions in reflective thinking and critical thinking abilities were observed between the experimental group and the control group. Learning that connects science and Islamic religion and examines STEM-R aspects is able to develop students' thinking skills.
This study aims to reveal the profile of open-start problem-solving with ethnomathematics regarding student learning styles. This research is a qualitative research study on 3 out of 31 students of Junior High School of 3 Magetan taken by purposive sampling. The three students carried out four stages: understanding the problem, planning problem-solving strategies, implementing problem-solving strategies, and reviewing again. The results of the research show that students with a visual learning style solve problems by understanding problems through writing known and being asked and drawing illustrations, planning problem-solving strategies by making examples, carrying out solving strategies by working on the calculation process; students with an auditory learning style solve problems by understanding problems through writing known and being asked, planning strategies by making problems and formulating formulas used, implementing solutions by doing calculations and reviewing; students with a kinesthetic learning style solve problems by understanding issues through writing known and being asked, making examples and writing the formulas used, carrying out solving strategies by applying the calculation process and reviewing the results obtained. However, of the three styles, the results of the accepted work were not correct because they did not write down the conclusions and were not thorough enough.
The volunteer function inventory (VFI) is an assessment tool to measure individual volunteer motivation. VFI measures individual motivation to volunteer by examining the functional motives of each volunteer. This research aimed to adapt the VFI to the Indonesian language. VFI consists of 30 items divided into five dimensions. This study utilized a non-experimental quantitative research method. Samples were acquired by accidental random sampling with N = 176. In this study, reliability testing was carried out with items and dimensions of Cronbach's α. Validity tests were examined using construct validity and item analysis. The results of the Indonesian version of VFI showed high reliability and validity. Besides, the item analysis also shows that the quality of each item is excellent. The Indonesian version of VFI will be suitable for various education fields in Indonesia to measure the students' voluntary willingness in community development activities, for example, in measuring the impact of volunteerism in the Merdeka Belajar Kampus Merdeka (MBKM) social activities and other activities within the communities.
Digital history-based project-based learning (PjBL) in history learning is a learning medium that can provide a special attraction for students who can improve historical concept skills and historical awareness. However, there are still many teachers who have not used it, so it is very important to study it. This research aims to analyze the influence of the digital history based PJBL model in improving historical concept skills and historical awareness. The method used is quasi-experimental with two classes, experimental and control. The population used class XI high school students in Lampung, Indonesia and the sample size was 213. Cluster random sampling was used to determine sampling, while data collection was in the form of test instruments. The test instrument questions were analyzed using the gain score and Kruskal-Walli’s test to determine the increase in historical concept skills and historical awareness with the help of statistical package for the social sciences (SPSS) 26. The research results confirmed that digital history based PjBL was effective in increasing historical concept skills and historical awareness with a high score, making it the best choice to overcome obstacles in history learning.
This study aims to determine how using an active learning model based on the three higher education principles can improve students' active learning. Qualitative research methods were applied in this study, with data collection through interviews, literature study, and observation. The results showed that active learning based on the three higher education principles was included in the "good" or "acceptable" category. The application of this model can make this campus a place with a positive academic atmosphere that enhances and supports collaboration, discussion, and positive and critical thinking. The novelty of this research lies in the use of active learning with mini-research projects, which are developed based on university principles and embody it. The hope is that this can help solve problems in the student learning process at the State Islamic University Sunan Kalijaga, Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The expected implication is that the university's policy supports applying the model to resolve learning problems and build real scientists for students.
Integration of information and communication technology (ICT) in teacher education is a means to support the teaching and learning process. Good teaching by utilizing technology certainly requires changes, especially in the realm of pedagogy, but teachers apparently do not have enough ability to optimize ICT in the learning process. In fact, ICT has the potential to provide various benefits for teachers and students, including joint learning areas, cooperative and collaborative learning opportunities. Therefore, this research aims to identify the use of mobile learning application (MLA) and its impact as a form of ICT integration in learning. The method used is literature study, by taking data from various relevant scientific articles and books. Data analysis uses descriptive analysis from the results of the synthesis of several literature reviews obtained. The research results show that a number of 10 main articles and 15 relevant supporting articles as well as several book sources show that mobile-based learning with smartphone devices is becoming a trend at various levels of education, both academic and vocational.
Incorporating ethnoscience into lessons through the ethnoscience-students’ worksheet (ESW) is one method to improve student interest in science learning while introducing them to the local culture. However, no research was reported the effects of ESW on students' responses and the factors that influence ESW implementation in science learning. In order to better understand how students learn through ESW, this study investigated the relationship between ethnoscience context, science learning, and the implementation of students’ worksheets. Seventy-two students participated in the survey after they studied ethnoscience learning through ESW. Students’ responses are more influenced by science learning. In addition, the ethnoscience-integrated students’ worksheets (SW) variable indirectly affects students’ responses. Additionally, ESW affects students' responses more significantly than science learning and ethnoscience. This research provides insightful implications for educators on planning, designing, and practicing ESW to enhance students’ problem-solving motivation and academic achievement. Furthermore, to contribute significantly to future researchers, further research employed the structural equation model through covariance analysis, also known as confirmatory factor analysis (CFA).
This research aimed to assess the readiness of Indonesian pre-service science teachers by examining their perceptions of impending challenges, desired competencies, and anticipated instructional methodologies in preparing for the challenges of Society 5.0. Using a quantitative survey research methodology, 884 pre-service science teachers from 16 universities were surveyed. The research instrument's validity and reliability were assessed utilizing the Rasch model. Inferential statistics were employed to assess the readiness of pre-service science teachers for future challenges, taking into account their backgrounds. The test outcomes showed the Cronbach's Alpha coefficient reached 0.92, is deemed "excellent", affirming the instrument's high reliability. The findings of the study revealed that the majority of teachers share a consistent perception of future challenges and recognize the importance of mastering 21st-century skills, particularly critical thinking, creative thinking, communication, and collaboration. However, respondents believe that the current learning process does not adequately train these skills. They expressed a desire for an alternative learning method that can enhance their skills while accommodating their diverse backgrounds, including place of residence, economic background, and technological proficiency. Further research is needed to identify alternative teaching methods that can effectively foster these abilities in diverse backgrounds.
The issue of psychological well-being in education has emerged as an increasingly critical topic in recent years. This is due to the significance of psychological well-being in enhancing the performance of e ducational institutions, encompassing students, teachers, and the process of formulating school policies. This study sought to discover recent research on psychological well-being from an academic perspective. A total of 27 research articles were successfully gathered and reviewed based on the established criteria. This article review was conducted utilizing two databases (SCOPUS and WoS) and the following keywords: "psychological well-being" combined with "AND" and other search terms such as "school", "teacher", and "student". This systematic review offers a synthesis of results that can serve as the initial step in developing constructs of psychological well-being in educational institutions, thus implying the importance of psychological well-being for teachers and students. The results of the analysis from this systematic literature review have been discussed and concluded in this study.
This study aims to investigate Indonesian senior high school teachers’ perceptions of using the first language (L1) when teaching English because Indonesian teachers tend to have negative perceptions toward the application of the L1, while the L1 is needed in a situation where Indonesian students have limited skills in English. The semi-structured interview was applied to collect data, while thematic analysis was used to analyse it. The result showed that the teachers have three different positions in perceiving the use of the L1: the virtual position, maximal, and optimal positions. Although they have different perceptions toward the application of the L1, a major insight can be concluded about the limited use of the L1 for specific reasons, such as considering teachers’ and students’ English abilities, learners’ needs, and the type and the difficulty of the given task or assignment. The L1 can be functioned as scaffolding in three aspects: when teaching grammar, vocabulary, and when giving instructions. Teachers may consider this study’s results as the information to use the L1 in classrooms. This may also be beneficial for Indonesian educational stakeholders and the government to specifically define what type of scaffolding that teachers can use the L1 to teach English.
The Smile project is an engineering service-learning initiative carried out through collaboration between Chouaib Doukkali University in Morocco and Pusan National University in South Korea. Since 2016, this project has been conducted annually for engineering students from both universities. Participants are selected through an oral interview, ensuring representation from different majors, years, and genders. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the project transitioned to an online mode starting from 2020. The objective of this article is to investigate the impact of the service-learning approach on learning and its potential for enhancing engineering education. This study aims to compare the face-to-face and online implementations of the Smileproject as examples of this educational approach. The analysis demonstrates a strong positive effect of engineering service-learning as a learning approach, leading to the improvement of engineering students' skills and competencies. Notably, there is minimal difference between the two implementation modes of this learning approach.
Assessment is an important component of learning which aims to determine student achievement in learning. However, the pandemic has changed how assessment is carried out, prompting teachers to look for new strategies in carrying out mathematics learning assessments under any conditions, whether in normal conditions or during a pandemic. This study described the strategies used by high school mathematics teachers in assessing mathematics learning during the pandemic towards the post-pandemic period. This type of research is descriptive exploratory research with a qualitative approach. The subjects in this study were three mathematics teachers, three principals, and three vice principals from a public senior high school in Yogyakarta City, Indonesia. Qualitative data were collected by means of questionnaires, interviews, and documentation. The collected data were analyzed qualitatively according to Bogdan and Biklen. The results of the study reveal that the mathematics teacher’s strategy for carrying out assessments during a pandemic includes: i) determining the appropriate online assessment platform that suits the needs; ii) assessment based on student participation; iii) using various of online assessment methods; iv) prioritizing academic integrity and honesty in the assessment implementation; and v) carry out the management and reporting of data on the results of the assessment in accordance with established procedures.

1. INTRODUCTION
Classroom teachers perform an important role in the attainment of any educational goal. The ability
of teachers to effectively manage classroom and student behaviour is critical in achieving positive
educational goals. Classroom management have remained a serious concern for teachers. This is so because
the teachers are the second parents of the students and as well they have direct contact with the students in
the school premises. Teachers should use good classroom management techniques so as to avoid disorderly
behaviour by a certain number of students which may likely affect the activities of the classroom [1].
Teachers have the opportunity to affect student achievement by effectively managing the learning
environment. Teachers are content experts who must cope with different types of students in the classroom
and manage those behaviours appropriately. Making the teaching-learning environment interesting has been
the hallmark of educationists. Classroom management refers to a teacher's ability to successfully establish a
favorable and happy learning environment in the classroom. In the study of Ndiyo [2], it was narrated that
classroom management includes curbing learner’s disruptive behaviours such as fighting, noise making, close
observation, and response to students who ask questions.
Management of the classroom is one of the problems teachers face in the institution of education.
Classroom management strategies enhances prosocial behaviour and increase student academic participation.
Walker [3] concluded that, the ability to effectively manage a classroom determines a successful teaching.
The study of George, Sakirudeen, and Sunday [4], have shown that most schools recommendations on
classroom management is to use flexibility in instructions. Classroom management act like an umbrella that

330
gives cover or protection to every activity of the classroom [5]. Two types of classroom management styles
were identified by Williams [6] and they are; as proactive and reactive approaches. Active teachers promote
communality in the classroom by demonstrating positive behaviors. While reactive teachers plan alternative
activities for students who finish classroom assignments early and become bored, having a tactic to use for
students to switch bad behaviors into good, and responding quickly to an upset student, proactive teachers
plan alternative activities for students who finish classroom assignments early and become bored. The
teacher’s goal is to control students’ goals and behaviours toward a prescribed end. Teachers are expected to
prepare the classroom environment for the teaching and learning process, establish classroom rules and create
an effective learning environment for students to adopt the rules, organize and maintain classroom instruction
[7]. The teacher creates the climate in the classroom that makes good discipline possible. In a healthy
classroom atmosphere teacher are given the opportunity to develop and enhance all the aspects of their levels
of personality. Teachers are expected to prepare classroom environment for teaching and learning process,
determine the rules of the classroom and create good learning environment for the students [4].
Teacher's personality traits play an important role in the students behaviour and influence not only
the goals sets for the classroom activities but also the ways in which one goes about achieving those goals
[8]. Teacher personality can affect student learning outcomes via the psychological environment of the
classroom. How and why one differs from another is an important part of the study of personality [9]. When
the psychological traits of personality are achieved within the teacher, one is more likely to be motivated to
achieve, cooperate and take on new challenges. It is important for a teacher to have a sound personality
which will reflect upon the students. A study conducted by Richardon, et al. [10] suggested that personality
styles should be identified to meet learners need. The personality type that have positive relationship to
teaching effectiveness competencies have greater ease or difficulty in achieving high effectiveness scores as
the situation demands [11]. When teachers understand their personality type, it makes them to be proactive in
determining a better fit for each students.
In the study of Othman [12], the big five personality are characterized as neuroticism (individual is
likely to experience nervousness, uncertainty and psychological depression), extraversion (interpersonal
communication), openness to experience (seeking and appreciating new knowledge), agreeableness (the
quality of one’s interpersonal interaction) and conscientiousness (determination, organization and motivation
in expected goals). Similarly, extroversion is defined by sociability, confidence, societal dominance,
determination, dispositions toward action, sensation-seeking, and positive mark experience, according to
Bozionelos [13]. Altruism, friendliness, and modesty are all linked to agreeableness. The concept of
conscientiousness is concerned with how people approach their employment. Excessive concern, pessimism,
low confidence, and a proclivity to experience negative emotions are all features of neuroticism. Thoughts,
curiosity, open-mindedness, and creativity are all examples of openness. Teachers' gender may influence the
education they provide, as well as the responsibilities they play in society. Gender has a significant impact,
particularly in underdeveloped countries. Gender concerns are very relevant and tremendously significant in
poor nations where women are marginalized, according to Allana, et al. [14].
Nearly one-half of those who become teachers leave the profession within 5 years due to lack of
classroom management strategies [15]. Thus, a stronger emphasis on classroom management strategies and
best practices in the context of teachers’ personality may serve to strengthen teacher retention efforts. Certain
personality traits may be required to be a good and effectual teacher [16]. There are several studies on
teachers’ personality in relation to student academic performance. For instance, study conducted by
Chamorro-Premuzic and Furnham [17] indicate that neuroticism may impair academic performance, while
higher academic achievement will be as a result of conscientiousness. Similarly, in the study of Laidra,
Pullman, and Allik [18], it was found that, students performance is positively correlated with openness,
agreeableness, and conscientiousness while neuroticism correlated negatively with the performance of
students. Another study conducted by Zhang [19], investigated the relationship between teacher personality
traits and their teaching styles among 157 Chinese high school teachers. The results indicated that teachers’
personality significantly contributed to teachers’ teaching styles.
On a flip side, a study conducted by Ahmed, Ambreen and Hussain [20] compared both male and
female teachers in terms of classroom management skills and found that female teachers scored significantly
higher than male teachers in terms of instructional and behavioral management. Female teachers are better at
instructional tactics, but male teachers are better at student involvement, according to Nejati, et al. [21].
Effective teaching research, as well as personality traits that assist successful teaching, is not new
and has long been a staple of academia [22]. It has been observed that not many studies on teachers’
personality type as determinant of classroom management has been carried out in Lagos State Nigeria. It is
therefore imperative that study on teachers’ personality type and classroom management in Lagos State
appears relevant and complementary to the existing studies. The main purpose of this study is to examine
teachers’ personality type as determinant of classroom management in Lagos State. Four research questions

were generated based on the research question: 1) What is the teachers’ personality in Lagos State?; 2) How
effective are the classroom management of teachers in Lagos State?; 3) What is the relationship between
teachers’ personality and classroom management in Lagos State?; and 4) What is the relationship between
teachers’ personality and classroom management based on gender in Lagos State? While the research
hypotheses are: 1) H01: There is no significant relationship between teachers’ personality and classroom
management in Lagos State; and 2) H02: There is no relationship between teachers’ personality and classroom
management based on gender in Lagos State.
2. RESEARCH METHOD
This study employed a descriptive research design. The participants in this study are all teachers in
Lagos State's public basic schools. The state consists of three Senatorial District. They are: Lagos Central,
Lagos East and Lagos West, Nigeria. The sample for this study comprises 180 basic school teachers from the
15 selected schools in the three Senatorial Districts. Basic school teachers are considered appropriate for this
study because this is where the foundation for other level of education rest on. Also, basic education is the
first stage of formal education after coming from pre-school. This study selected basic school teachers
because this is the stage where all round development of a child takes place mostly. Teachers also give wings
to the ambitions and aim in the mind of the students for academic success.
Multistage sampling technique was used. At the first stage, the state was stratified in to three
stratums (Lagos Central, Lagos East and Lagos West). The second stage involved using a purposive sample
methodology to select five public elementary schools from each of the three Senatorial Districts. The 15
public basic schools were selected because they have the highest number of teachers in the Senatorial
Districts. At the third stage, simple random sampling technique was used to select 12 teachers each from the
sampled schools.
Two instruments were used for this study. They are: Big Five Inventory which was adapted from a
Self-Report Measure for Personality developed by Othman [12] while Teachers Classroom Management
Strategies Questionnaire was also adapted from [4]. Experts in the field of Educational Psychology and
Educational Management were given the instruments for validation and the reliability of the instruments was
established using test re-test method. Two sets of test administrations were carried out at the interval of two
weeks. Data obtain from the first and second administration was collated separately and subjected to
reliability using Pearson Product Moment Correlation (PPMC) to ascertain the reliability of the instruments.
The reliability coefficient was found at 0.67 and 0.65 respectively. Four research questions were raised in this
study. The first and second research questions were answered using mean and percentage, while the third and
fourth research questions, which had corresponding hypotheses, were tested using PPMC at the 0.05 level of
significance.

3.3. Discussion
The study investigated teachers’ personality type as determinant of classroom management in Lagos
State, Nigeria. The first finding showed that many of the teachers’ personality type is openness vs. closed to
experience in Lagos State. This study is consistent with Arif, Rashid, Tahira, and Akhter [23], which reveals
that the openness personality type of instructors is more prevalent than the other four Big Five personality
types. However, the result of the findings negates that Bozionelos [13] who reported that, most of the
teacher’s personality in Scotland is agreeableness and the less is neuroticism. The difference that exist in the
findings could be associated with difference in the locale and also the way teaching profession is taking in the
locales differs.
Also, it was revealed that majority of the teachers in Lagos State are effective in their classroom
management. Similarly, this finding is in line with the finding of George, Sakirudeen, and Sunday [4]. They
revealed that teachers are effective in their classroom management and it thus significantly influences senior
secondary school students.
Another results of the study indicates that in Lagos State, there is a significant association between
teacher personality and classroom management. This results is consistent with that Opdenakker and Damme
[24]. They looked at the relationship between teacher personality qualities and their teaching methods, and
found that instructors' personalities played a substantial role in their teaching approaches.
Lastly, another finding showed a significant relationship between teachers’ personality and
classroom management based on gender. However, this finding does not corroborate the finding of
Opdenakker and Damme [24] which revealed that teachers’ gender does not significantly predict classroom
practices. Furthermore, the findings of this study contradict those Oktan and Kivanc [25], who found that
gender had little bearing on teachers' classroom management strategies. The disparity in results could be due
to the idea that female instructors are more likely to choose teaching as their sole job because they are
already accustomed to caring for their families.
4. CONCLUSION
The research investigated teachers’ personality type as determinant of classroom management in
Lagos State, Nigeria. The result showed that majority of the teachers’ personality type is openness vs. closed
to experience. Also, the result revealed that majority of the teachers in Lagos State are effective in their
classroom management. The finding of the study showed that, relationship between teachers’ personality
type and classroom management was significant. Another finding showed that, teachers’ gender and
personality type is significantly related to how a classroom is managed. It was then concluded that, the type
of teachers’ personality goes a long way in predicting how effective classroom management could be and
also, teacher’s gender plays a significant role in determining how personality type could predict effect
classroom management. Teachers should ensure that rules given in the classroom should be consistent.
It was then recommended that regular seminars should be organized for teachers on how to develop
personality type. It can bring about effectiveness in their classroom management techniques, since teachers
can either increase or decrease positive behaviour among learners in the classroom.
