Tang's (1974) Teacher Behavior Inventory instrument was used to generate data to measure teacher's behavior in such areas as : 1) Principles and Methods of Teaching, 2) Aversive Teacher Behavior, 3) Knowledge of the Subject Matter, 4) Teacher Personal Behavior and 5) Motivational Teacher Behavior. The average level of the teacher behavior of the faculty members of the four colleges in the following areas are: a) Principles and Methods of Teaching - 3.78, satisfactory, b) Aversive Teacher Behavior - 4.37, highly satisfactory, c) Knowledge of the subject matter - 3.98, satisfactory, d) Teacher Personal Behavior - 3.93, satisfactory and e) Motivational Teacher Behavior - 3.6, satisfactory. Clearly, the average level of teachers' behavior is satisfactory. On the results of evaluation between the deans and teachers along the five areas, only the Teacher Personal Behavior shows a significant correlation. however, the correlation is weak -- There is no significant correlation between the dean's evaluation and student's evaluation on all the five (5) areas under investigation. There is no significant correlation that exists between the stundents' evaluation and teachers' self-evaluation along the five (5) areas stated.
