Abstract

The study determined the level of teaching effectiveness of the College Mathematics instructors in Jose Rizal Memorial State College – Main Campus, Dapitan City during the Second Semester of the School Year 2003 – 2004 in terms of academic knowledge, teaching skills and classroom management skills and its correlates, namely: affective characteristics, educational qualification, attendance in in-service trainings/seminars, and teaching experience. The study revealed that teaching effectiveness and affective characteristics of college Math instructors, their educational qualification and attendance in in-service trainings/seminars are significantly correlated but teaching experience has no significant correlation with teaching effectiveness. Affective characteristics largely influence teaching effectiveness whereas educational qualification and attendance in in-service trainings or seminars slightly affect teaching effectiveness of college Math instructors; however, teaching effectiveness is not significantly influenced by the length of teaching experience. It was also divulged in the study that the administrators’ kinds of supervision significantly influences teaching effectiveness. Administrators and college deans should intensify their supervisory functions to monitor instructor’s needs and weaknesses and attract them to take postgraduate studies for professional advancement.
