Journal Title: International Journal of Physical and Social Sciences (IJPSS) - Year 2012, Vol 2, Issue 8
Abstract
Teachers work in higher educational institutions to provide specialized education to their students. They also work to introduce innovative ideas to the nation through their research and developmental activities. Furthermore, teachers in institutions of higher education play a critical role to train students in economic development as well as sustaining the well-being of the societies. The utility of the research carried out by teachers cannot be appreciated until it results in commercial use. Teacher cannot secure their position in the field of their expertise unless they are committed to their job and related entities. Consequently, the factors influencing the levels of commitment of the teachers in wider education systems must necessarily be the focus of an important field of research. This paper discusses about the significance of teachers’ commitment, conceptualizes different types of teachers’ commitment, identifies instruments to measure teacher commitment, and also possible outcomes of teacher commitment. Limitations and implications of the study have been discussed.
