STUDENTS TEACHERS CONCEPTION OF MATHEMATICS IN SECONDARY SCHOOL IN ABIA STATE

Introduction Students teachers conception conceptions of mathematics and its teaching and learning are powerful moderators of their mathematical teaching practices. The role of these conceptions and the nature of their relationship to knowledge and practice have been deeply analysed within the literature on mathematics education. Previous research also reports on the impact of beliefs, affects […]

TEACHERS CONCEPTION OF MATHEMATICS PROVISION AND UTILIZATION OF STUDENTS’ ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE IN SECONDARY SCHOOL IN MUSHIN

Conventional teacher-led instruction remains dominant in most mathematics classrooms in Lagos state. Under such instruction, the teacher can rarely take care of all students. Many students may then continue to fall behind the standard of mathematics achievement and lose their interest in mathematics; they eventually give up on learning mathematics. In fact, students in Lagos

COMPARATIVE EFFECTIVENESS OF MATHEMATICAL GAME AND INSTRUCTIONAL ANALOGY AS ADVANCE ORGANIZERS ON STUDENTS ACHIEVEMENT AND INTEREST IN MATHEMATICS

Abstract The study investigated the effects of mathematical game and instructional analogy on students’ achievement in junior secondary school mathematics. A total of 246 Junior Secondary Two (JS2) Mathematics students were involved in the study. A 3×2 factorial design was adopted in the research. From the findings, it was observed that: a. both game and

MATHEMATICAL MODEL OF CEREBROSPINAL MENINGITIS IN OBUASI MUNICIPALITY OF ASHANTI REGION, GHANA

ABSTRACT Meningococcal disease is a serious health threat in the human body which begins rapidly with a relative high case fatality rate particularly in the absence of treatment and thus is a priority when it comes to prevention. Delayed treatment can lead to death or invasive meningococcal disease which causes complications such as neurologic disorder,

Resolvent Method for Computing Galois Groups of Polynomials of Degrees Four and Five

ABSTRACT We describe a general algorithm for the computation of Galois groups of polynomials over global fields from the point of view of using it to compute Galois groups of polynomials over function fields with prime characteristic, including characteristic 2 in which some invariants which are efficient to use in other characteristics are invariant for too large a group. We state new invariants
