Designing A Super Lecture Model For Academic Excellence: Integrating The Theories Of Human Resource Management: An Exploratory Study

Abstract

Teachers are interested in adapting effective pedagogies to improve students’ learning in the classroom. The most practical, significant, and popular pedagogy is lecturing. We conducted this study to develop a super lecture through the lenses of ability, motivation, and opportunity (AMO) and human capital theory (HCT) theories to help both academia and students improve the learning process and achieve academic excellence.

We conducted interviews of fifty Ph.D. professors and conducted a thematic analysis to explore the phenomena. We developed a “Super Lecture” and proposed an Integrated-Lecture-Model (ILM) to overcome the short comings and make the lecturing technique more power full pedagogical method.  We have designed five components of ILM.  They are 1, lecture structuring, 2, using of I.T tools for assistance, 3, teacher-student collaboration, 4, teachers’ professional competence and 5, monitoring and evaluation system for both teachers and students.

Findings further show that improving teachers' professional competence is crucial for improving the educational process. Both teachers and students play a significant part and this is a systematic and collaborative process. Students can advance academically by using modern pedagogies and technologies. With the use of professional development programmes provided by institutions, teachers can create a more dynamic learning environment. The ILM of super lecture will increase the capability and capacity of teachers to deliver high-quality education.
