Bachelor Thesis from the year 2019 in the subject Mathematics - Miscellaneous, grade: 4.02, University of Lagos, course: Mathematics and Education, language: English, abstract: The study examined study habits and academic performance of senior secondary school students in Mathematics. The main purpose of the study was to investigate the relationship between study habits and academic performance of senior secondary school students in Mathematics. To carry out this study, four research questions and one null hypothesis were raised to guide the study. The population of 1128 Senior Secondary School Two (SS2) students with a sample size of 200 respondents was selected from 5 public secondary schools for the study using simple random sampling technique. A structured questionnaire was used to gather data for the study, which consists of two sections (A and B), section A consist of 20 items while section B, consist of 30 achievement tests on mathematics. The reliability coefficient of 0.72 was obtained using Split Half Method. Data collected was analyzed using simple frequency counts, percentages and Pearson Product Moment Correlation Co-efficient (PPMC) and the hypothesis was tested at 0.05 level of significance using One-Way Analysis of Variance(ANOVA). However, the results revealed that there is significant relationship between study habits and academic performance of senior secondary school students in mathematics. Based on the result of the findings, it was recommended that group guidance should be organized in schools by professional counsellors in order to create awareness on how students can develop effective study habits which could lead to good academic performance in mathematics and a functional school library should be mounted in all the secondary schools.

Investigating the Effects of Using a Variety of Teaching Methods in Teaching and Learning of Secondary School Mathematics by Thom Phiri Pdf

Academic Paper from the year 2019 in the subject Mathematics - Didactics, language: English, abstract: This paper aims at finding out the effects of using a variety of teaching methods in teaching and learning of Mathematics in Malawian secondary schools. The main objective of the research paper will be to investigate the effects of using a variety of teaching methods in the teaching and learning of secondary school Mathematics in Malawi. Mathematics has always been given special attention in school as the nature of the subject is related to many other fields and disciplines. Moreover, students' mathematics achievement has often been the focus and is seen as a critical global issue in many countries. Besides being perceived as a tough subject, problems in mathematics learning have also been related to the lack of regulation skills among students in learning mathematics. Self-regulation is a broad construct which covers before, during and after phases learning. The rapid changes of the education system and delivery methods give a huge impact to students.This situation requires students to learn effectively and in a more self-directed manner. To achieve this, teachers are encouraged to use a variety of teaching methods when teaching mathematics. This leads to student motivation which is a very important element in the learning process as it is an inducer and propeller for one to do a task successfully. Therefore, motivation is essential for an individual to successfully face challenges in academic setting. Moreover, motivation will be used by students as the attribution or determinant to their behaviour in learning and performance. Behaviours that are related to academic motivation such as the desire to do difficult tasks and stay longer in difficult situations will be the determinant for students' ability in facing daily school life challenges. It has been observed that there is still poor performance in mathematics despite the use of a variety of methods by teac

Educating the Student Body by Committee on Physical Activity and Physical Education in the School Environment,Food and Nutrition Board,Institute of Medicine Pdf

Physical inactivity is a key determinant of health across the lifespan. A lack of activity increases the risk of heart disease, colon and breast cancer, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, osteoporosis, anxiety and depression and others diseases. Emerging literature has suggested that in terms of mortality, the global population health burden of physical inactivity approaches that of cigarette smoking. The prevalence and substantial disease risk associated with physical inactivity has been described as a pandemic. The prevalence, health impact, and evidence of changeability all have resulted in calls for action to increase physical activity across the lifespan. In response to the need to find ways to make physical activity a health priority for youth, the Institute of Medicine's Committee on Physical Activity and Physical Education in the School Environment was formed. Its purpose was to review the current status of physical activity and physical education in the school environment, including before, during, and after school, and examine the influences of physical activity and physical education on the short and long term physical, cognitive and brain, and psychosocial health and development of children and adolescents. Educating the Student Body makes recommendations about approaches for strengthening and improving programs and policies for physical activity and physical education in the school environment. This report lays out a set of guiding principles to guide its work on these tasks. These included: recognizing the benefits of instilling life-long physical activity habits in children; the value of using systems thinking in improving physical activity and physical education in the school environment; the recognition of current disparities in opportunities and the need to achieve equity in physical activity and physical education; the importance of considering all types of school environments; the need to take into consideration the diversity of students as recommendations are developed. This report will be of interest to local and national policymakers, school officials, teachers, and the education community, researchers, professional organizations, and parents interested in physical activity, physical education, and health for school-aged children and adolescents.

Making Sense of Adult Learning by Dorothy MacKeracher Pdf

Learning is an inseparable part of human experience. Understanding how adults learn and applying that expertise to practical everyday situations and relationships opens the window on a broader understanding of the capacity of the human mind. Dorothy MacKeracher's Making Sense of Adult Learning was first published in 1996, and was acclaimed for its readability and value as a reference tool. For the second edition of this essential work, MacKeracher has reorganized and revised many of the chapters to bring the text up-to-date for contemporary use. Concepts are presented from learning-centred and learner-centred perspectives, while related learning and teaching principles provide ideas about how one may enable others to learn more effectively. Written for people preparing to become adult educators, Making Sense of Adult Learning provides background information about the nature of adult learning and the characteristics that typify adult learners. This new edition will be quick to assert its place as the premier guide in the field.
