The Mathematics Performance and the Track Preference of Grade 10 Students

Abstract

This research paper focused on investigating the mathematical performance of grade 10 students and its role in determining their Senior High School (SHS) track/strand. The aim of the study is to explore the attitudes, beliefs, and opinions of the students towards mathematics and how it influences their decision-making process in choosing their SHS track/strand. Additionally, the study aims to examine the factors that affect students' performance in mathematics in relation to their chosen SHS track/strand. The research design utilized in this study is a survey questionnaire, which was administered to grade 10 students at Narvacan National Central High School. The participants of the study are primarily grade 10 students, with a majority being 16 years old. There are more female respondents than male, and a significant percentage of the respondents' parents have blue-collar jobs. Additionally, most of the parents are college graduates. The findings of the study indicate that the level of mathematics performance among grade 10 students at Narvacan National Central High School is considered "Fair." Furthermore, the students' preferred track for SHS is Humanities and Social Sciences (HUMSS). The study also reveals a significant relationship between mathematics performance and the profile of the respondents. Additionally, there is a significant relationship between mathematics performance and STEM, HUMSS, and TVL track/strands. However, there is no relationship between mathematics performance and the preferred strand of students who chose ABM. The implications of this research highlight the importance of mathematics in the decision-making process of students when choosing their SHS track/strand.
