dc.description.abstractEffective teaching has had a major impact on students’ academic achievement over time. In Polytechnics, academic staff teaches skilled based courses. However, since the upgrading of Secretarial Studies to Office Technology and Management, teaching of OTM courses in polytechnics has been perceived to be ineffective because graduates lack the necessary abilities to meet established targets with dexterity. This has adversely affected the teaching of OTM courses in public polytechnics. Literatures abound on instructional facilities and quality assurance as predictor of effective teaching. However, little appears to have been done in considering instructional facilities and quality assurance mechanisms on effective teaching of OTM courses especially in public polytechnics. The study investigated instructional facilities and quality assurance on teaching of OTM courses in public polytechnics in South west, Nigeria. The study used a cross-sectional survey research design. The population consisted 184 Academic staff. Total enumeration sampling technique was used. A validated questionnaire was used for data collection. Reliability coefficients range from 0.72 to 0.80. A response rate of 95% was achieved. Data collected was analyzed through descriptive and inferential statistics using regression analysis. Findings revealed that there was a significant combined influence of instructional facilities and quality assurance with teaching of OTM courses (R 2 = 0.708, F = (2.37) = 44,875 t = 5.028, P< 0.05). Also, there is significant influence of instructional facilities and quality assurance on teaching of OTM courses (Adj R 2 = 0.692; p < .000). The study concluded that instructional facilities and quality assurance measures have significant influence on the teaching of OTM courses. It was recommended that polytechnics offering OTM courses should be provided with instructional facilities while quality assurance should be enforced to aid effective teaching.
