Abstract

The study examined the Effects of Team Teaching Approach on Academic Performance of Students in Faculty of
Education in Kebbi state university of science and technology, Aliero, Nigeria. The study used quasi-experimental
research design and 162 UG II students from Faculty of Education were used. The study used self constructed open
and closed ended questionnaires as data collection instrument. The study answered two (2) hypotheses. The data
analysis tools was independent sample t-test which is used in testing of the two null hypotheses postulated by the
study. The study revealed that that students who were exposed to the use of team teaching approach (experimental
group) scored higher and were significantly different from those who were taught with the single teacher approach
(control group); no significant difference was established between the mean scores of UG II male and female
students taught using team teaching approach (Experimental group). The study recommended that lecturers in the
faculty should be encouraged to adopt team teaching approach for their students for optimum academic
performance as the approach has proven to be the best.
