Abstract The management and control of classrooms in the school system in terms of maintaining order and achieving effective learning is one of the most difficult tasks facing beginning and inexperienced teachers in recent times. Owing to this .singular aspect, some teachers wish to leave the teaching profession. Students' characteristics and incidences of disruptive behaviour among students have become very complex and, challenging due to the changing nature of the society. The tasks of the teachers have therefore increased enormously creating greater demands on them in an attempt to create positive classroom environments for effective teaching and learning. This paper provides techniques that teachers can adopt to achieve effective classroom management despite disruptive behaviour by students and provides tips on the prevention and management of indiscipline for the smooth running of the classrooms and effective teaching and learning. Suggestions are made for practical solutions to classroom problems to enable teachers teach without stress and achieve the goals of teaching and learning one of which is qualitative education

Abstract The study investigated the administrators’ perception on the use of social media in facilitating organizational team growth. The purpose of the study was to critically evaluate and analyze the perception of administrators, their computer literacy levels, whether they possess the technical skills required by them in using social media for
organizational team growth. The researchers used in-depth analysis to collect both qualitative and quantitative data. Using a purposive sampling method two hundred (200) administrators were selected; one hundred and twenty (120) academic staff and eighty (80) non -academic staff out of the nine hundred and thirty (930) staff of defunct College of Education, Agbor. Frequency count, percentage, mean, and standard deviation were used to analyze the questionnaire data while document analysis was used to analyze the quantitative data. Findings revealed that 141 (70.5%) of the participants were computer literate. However more than 50% of the non-academic staff were not computer literate, the most popular social media among the participants
was WhatsApp (61.5%). the mean perception of the academic staff for the eight listed roles of social media in facilitating team growth in an organization/department range
from 2.97 to 3.34. While that of non-academic staff ranges from 2.64 to 3.21. All the means were above the cutoff mean point of 2.50. Hence, all the eight roles were accepted as the roles social media plays in facilitating team growth in an organization. However, the means perception of the academic staff was higher than that of the nonacademic staff. This implies that the academic staff had a higher perception on the identified role that social media plays in facilitating team growth in an organization / department.
