Abstract

Abstract This study investigates the influence of instructional materials on students' performance in English language at Bauchi State University, Gadau. The research aims to identify the types of instructional materials used, assess their impact on student performance, and explore the challenges faced by teachers in utilizing these materials. A mixed-methods approach was employed, involving surveys and interviews with students and faculty. The findings indicate that effective use of diverse instructional materials significantly enhances student performance. However, challenges such as lack of resources and training hinder optimal utilization. Recommendations include improving resource availability and providing professional development for educators.
