A study of classroom management at UiTM Sarawak Branch, Samarahan Campus.

The expansion of academic programmes at UiTMSBSC and the subsequent increase in enrolment has led to the shortage of classroom space. In contrast to this situation, some classroom slots were found to be vacant ranging from 8.00am to 3.30pm. The findings indicated that, on the average, 10.5% of the classroom allotted to each programme and 11.7% of big rooms space were not utilized. A further 26% of the former and 54% of the latter were not monopolized to their maximum capacity. It was found that the shortage of classrooms could be overcome by merging certain groups from the same programmes based on student numbers or combining the common courses being offered to different programmes.
