dc.description.abstract | Based on a survey submitted to business teacher educators in 5 post-secondary educational institutions in Nigeria, unit leaders are perceived as having a capacity to lead their colleagues in their innovative efforts to enhance current instructional delivery systems. In this regard, personal lifestyle choices of unit leaders in terms of using social media and technology are generally perceived as being assimilated into their work styles and priorities for their programs. Business teacher educators perceive their unit leaders as being receptive to their ideas, willing to work with them on innovative endeavors, and exhibiting a participatory leadership work style. A discrepancy between unit leaders’ personal preferences towards aspects of social media and current awareness of these preferences by business teacher educators themselves may be an inhibiting factor in advancing social media use in the classroom. is discrepancy may be evident in other teacher training programs throughout the continent of Africa, resulting in social media currently being marginally implemented. Addressing this discrepancy may result in accelerating the integration of social media use in the classroom. | |
