Journal Title: Psychology and Education: A Multidisciplinary Journal - Year 2024, Vol 26, Issue 4
Abstract
This research determined the challenges encountered and the mathematics performance of the Grade 11 students at San Isidro National High School in Tagbilaran City Schools Division for the school year 2023-2024 as the basis for an action plan using descriptive correlational research design. Forty-three (43) students participated in the study and were identified using random sampling. The data gathered were treated using frequency count, percentage, and Pearson's r. The results revealed that most respondents are 17 years old, followed by 16 years old, and 18 years old. The gender distribution within each age group shows that females outnumber males in the 16 and 17-year-old categories, while males are more represented in the 18-year-old group. For mothers, the most common educational attainment levels are College Graduate and High School Graduate, followed by High School and College Level. Only one mother has a Graduate Studies degree, and none have completed Post-graduate Studies. The most common educational attainment among fathers is College Graduate, followed by College Level and High School Graduate. Most respondents have a family income between 10,957 and 21,194 pesos per month. It is concluded that while most respondents demonstrate proficiency in mathematics, they still encounter significant challenges in learning the subject. The respondents' profile, including age, gender, parents' educational attainment, and family income, provides insight into the students' diverse backgrounds. Although the study did not find a statistically significant relationship between the challenges faced and mathematics performance, addressing these challenges remains crucial for fostering a positive learning environment and promoting student success. Hence, it is recommended that the action plan crafted will be utilized.
