 STUDENT PERCEPTION OF TEACHING QUALITY IN BUSINESS SCHOOLS: EVIDENCE FROM POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTIONS IN GHANASolomon Abekah Keelson Business Education and Accreditation, 2011, vol. 3, issue 1, 77-88 Abstract: The study examines students' perceptions of the effectiveness of teaching and learning in business studies programs in the polytechnic institutions in Ghana. This research is a replica study (Hamid and Pihie, 2004). Two major factors are employed to measure students' perceptions of effective teaching and learning. They are Lecturers' Characteristics and Teaching Methodology. Findings of the study show how respondents perceive the qualities possessed and exhibited by lecturers with regard to the two main constructs. Descriptive and inferential statistics are reported. F ratio and ANOVA were used to show the significant differences in students' perceptions of the two factors based on age, class, and department. There were significant differences in the perceptions of overall Lecturer Characteristics, and in the perceptions of Teaching Methodology based on these variables. The study revealed high students’ perception of teaching quality and learning in the Polytechnics in Ghana. The significant differences found were related to age, class and departments Keywords: Polytechnic; Lecture characteristics; Teaching methodology; Quality teaching; Student perception (search for similar items in EconPapers) Downloads: (external link) Related works: Export reference: BibTeX RIS (EndNote, ProCite, RefMan) HTML/Text Persistent link: https://EconPapers.repec.org/RePEc:ibf:beaccr:v:3:y:2011:i:1:p:77-88 Access Statistics for this article Business Education and Accreditation is currently edited by Terrance Jalbert More articles in Business Education and Accreditation from The Institute for Business and Finance Research |
