Type: article
Abstract: This study aims to assess the influence of study abroad programs on academicians' teaching abilities by analyzing the answers of university students. The academician must be the integrator and the determinant of other aspects in the teaching and classroom management process to maintain effective teaching and classroom management. Learning how to manage a classroom is a time-consuming and challenging task. According to the findings of this study, academics who have had a study abroad education are more effective at the school because they are more compatible with evolving technology, which is backed by their teaching skill. Several concerns relating to higher education are examined, including administrative, financial, and academic autonomy, the transition to higher education, and the privatization of higher education institutions. The research model used in this study is a descriptive-relational survey. Two hundred and eighty-five undergraduate and associate degree students comprise the research group, including 12 professors from Akdeniz University. Data were gathered through the teaching and classroom management skills questionnaire, which the researchers developed. The findings were compatible with the sub-objectives of the investigation. Using Tukey's honestly significant difference test (Tukey's HSD), it was discovered that the competency levels of academics in teaching and classroom management varied significantly depending on the class capacity of the students. Moreover, it seeks to determine if students' perceptions of academic teaching and classroom management abilities change depending on their gender, class capacity, grade point averages, and course attendance. In most cases, the power of academicians to manage a classroom is exceptional, and teaching employees who studied abroad, on the other hand, had much higher levels of teaching and classroom management competency. Discussions were had on the implications for comprehending study patterns, the affecting elements, and educational procedures. This study's conclusions and contributions may significantly impact theory and practice. The results indicate that the government should keep funding the study abroad partnership effort since it improves university professors' classroom management and teaching abilities. Keywords: Classroom Management, University Education, Study Abroad, Teaching Skills, Tukey's HSD Test.
