Abstract

Over the years, there have been several studies exploring the factors affecting mathematics achievement. However, no study, specifically in the Mindanao context has attempted to summarize or illustrate the model for these sets of studies. This study aims to analyze the overall effect size of the factors on the student’s achievement in mathematics. The causal-comparative research design was utilized to synthesize the existing research about the student-related, teacher-related, and school-related factors that have -greatly influenced students’ mathematics achievement. Through the use of a multi-stage sampling design, 200 existing studies were funneled down to 50 with 158 effect sizes which met the inclusion criteria coming from the different colleges and universities in Mindanao. To determine the significant factors be included in the model that significantly influence students’ achievement, Hierarchical Linear Modeling (HLM) was utilized. The findings revealed that the overall effect sizes have a small effect on mathematics achievement. On the other hand, mathematical skills, attitude, and self-efficacy are found to be the predictors of students’ mathematical achievement. Further, it was concluded that the type of school where the student is studying could cause significant variation in the effect sizes. It is recommended that educational institutions may review regularly the curriculum addressing the disparity of achievement between public and private schools. Also, teachers may utilize varied teaching strategies so that students would develop interest and positive learning attitudes towards mathematics.

Abstract

Rubric has been associated with the term assessment used for grading and/or scoring. However, it might observe less, but it is also designed as students ‘learning tool. This study was conducted to provide empirical facts on its effectiveness as a learning tool in teaching Applications of Derivatives in Basic Calculus. It used the quasi-experimental design called the pretest posttest design. The participants were the 96 students from two classes of Grade 11 STEM students at the University of Mindanao. The instruments used were the adapted and improved rubric designed from two different research, a 25-item teacher-made problem-solving test questionnaire that was used in both pretest and posttest to measure the performance of the experimental and control group. The test questionnaire and rubric were both validated by 3 experts in the field with a result of very good, and it has a good internal consistency. The data gathered were summarized, translated, and analyzed using the mean scores of pretest and posttest. Findings showed that both the experimental and control group showed improvement, however, the experimental group who used rubric as a learning tool showed more significant improvement than control group. Thus, using a rubric as a learning tool in teaching Applications of derivatives is effective in improving students’ academic achievement as it teaches students to develop their understanding of procedural knowledge.
