Modular Approach in Teaching Mathematics: Quadratic Function
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Physics, Mathematics and Statistics - Year 2016, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
The use of self-instructional program plays an important role in teaching mathematics. Self-instructional program is useful not only to the fast learner group of students but also to the remedial teaching for low achievers as well. The practice of modular approach as a remedial teaching material like the Quadratic Function significantly increased the achievement level of the students, especially the experimental group. After the remedial teaching is done, statistically there is a significant difference between the achievement level between the experimental group and the control group. This means that the experimental group achieve better performance level than the control group. There were 40 participants for this study, 20 for the control group while 20 also for the experimental group. The experimental group was given a module while the control group was taught using the traditional way using the chalk-talk method. After the completion of the remedial lessons the post-test was administered to both groups to assess the students. In addition, six Mathematics teachers were asked their perceptions regarding the module before remedial teaching will be administered. The main purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of module in teaching mathematics, specifically on quadratic function.

Region of Variability of a Subclass of Starlike Univalent Functions
Let R denote the class of all analytic univalent functions f(z) in the unit disk ∆ with f(0)=f^' (0)=1 and (zf^' (z))/(f(z)) is starlike. For any fixed z_0 in the unit disk and λ ∈ ∆ ̅, we determine the region of variabi...
