dc.description.abstractThis research investigated Classroom Management and Educational Resources as determinants of teachers’ job commitment in Public Secondary Schools in Southwest, Nigeria. The missing gap filled was dearth of research on joint influence of classroom management and educational resources on teacher’s job commitment. The research was guided by Resources Dependent theory, side-Bet and Behavioural learning theories. Three research questions and three hypotheses were formulated and tested. Descriptive survey research design was adopted. The population consisted of principals (2,262) and teachers (56,827). Sample size comprised of (4,354) teachers and 1,061 principals. Two self constructed questionnaires:- Educational Resources and Classroom Management Questionnaire (ERCMQ) ( =0.892) and Teacher’s Job Commitment Questionnaire (TJCQ) ( = 0.871) were used. Data collected were analysed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Results revealed high level of teacher’s job commitment ( ?ത = 4.88), classroom management in public Secondary School, Southwest, Nigeria is moderate (?ത= 2.99). The level of educational resources available in public Secondary school is poor (?ത= 1.88). There was a combined significant influence of classroom management and educational resources on teachers’ job commitment (Adjusted R 2 = 0.674) (F = 342.861 = 0.000, P ˂ 0.05). There was a significant relative influence of classroom management (Beta = 0.155, t = 4.488) and educational resources (Beta = 0.807, t = 23. 325) on teachers’ job commitment. There was a significant relative influence of classroom management (Discipline and control; Beta 0.454, t = 21.461, communication; Beta = 0.109, t = 4.813, Instructional materials; Beta = 0.286, t = 4.836) educational resources (physical; plant; Beta = 0.897, t = 17.865, printed; Beta 0.598, t = 10.372, Non-printed; Beta = 0.450, t = 9.417) on teachers’ job commitment. It was recommended amongst others that educational resources should be available in the schools, monitoring and evaluating the utilization of educational resources and effective classroom management strategies should be implemented to improve teachers’ job commitment.
