Improving student-lecturer relationship

Experts agree that students must have a cordial relationship with their lecturers if they are to do well in a higher institution.

A paper published in 2019 by Nnamdi Azikiwe University's Educational Management and Policy Academic Journal concluded that a lack of cordial relationships among students and lecturers negatively affected academic performance.

According to the study by Apeh H.A. and Dagwa A. I., both of the University of Abuja, there was a need to improve student-lecturer relationships. The study focused on the University of Abuja.

The researchers noted:

"Education in the 21st century is undergoing significant changes at all levels. In contemporary university setting, there is a great diversity in terms of sociocultural, political, religious and racial backgrounds among students and lecturers. This diversity necessitates an appropriate lecturer-student relationship in order to create a campus environment that prepares students and lecturers to live and work amicably in a socio-culturally diverse society."
