Classroom Management Practices in Higher Educational Institutions of Quetta, Baluchistan

Abstract

This study investigated the interrelationships among classroom management practices, teachers’ motivation and attention, students’ engagement and interest, and students’ creativity and learning within higher education institutions in Quetta. Data were collected from 200 respondents across two universities and analyzed using a range of statistical techniques, including descriptive statistics, Chi-square tests, correlation analysis, histograms, and heatmaps. The descriptive results indicated a balanced representation across gender, institutions, departments, and semesters, ensuring a reliable dataset. Chi-square findings revealed no statistically significant associations among the categorical variables, implying that these factors function independently. In contrast, correlation analysis highlighted strong and positive relationships, particularly between classroom management practices and teachers’ motivation (r = 0.726), as well as moderate correlations with student engagement (r = 0.512) and creativity (r = 0.384). These results underscore the pivotal role of motivated teachers and effective classroom management in fostering greater student engagement and creative learning outcomes. Overall, the findings contribute to a deeper understanding of how teacher motivation and management strategies synergistically enhance the quality of teaching and learning in higher education settings.
