Journal Title: International Journal of Trend in Scientific Research and Development - Year 2020, Vol 4, Issue 6
Abstract
Teaching and learning Mathematics involves the creation of opportunity for individual, this includes providing a supportive learning environment that offered mathematical challenge and norming processes and strategies which foster learning that also makes our lives orderly and prevent chaos. The study was undertaken in response to the problems of students’ perceptions and attitude towards mathematical learning. These issues are related to classroom management and mathematical contents and pedagogy. The study employed the descriptive correlational method of research. Questionnaire contained of three parts is the primary tool used in the study, the respondents were one hundred fifty 150 Grade 9 and 10 students from Mindanao State University – Saguiaran Community High School. Researchers used random sampling to get 75 from the total population as respondents. The data gathered were interpreted and analyzed using three 3 statistical tools such Frequency and Percentage, Mean, and Pearson’s r. The result revealed that majority of the respondents were female and age ranged from 13 to 19 both grades 9 and 10. Moreover, the relationship between the respondents’ perceptions about the nature of Mathematics and attitudes towards Mathematics as evidenced by the computed statistics r = 0.014 with corresponding significance value of 0.866 which is greater than 0.05 level of significance, it implied that the respondents’ perceptions about the nature of Mathematics do not necessarily affect their attitudes towards Mathematics.
