Abstract

This research study investigated the influence of interest and motivation on mathematics achievement among junior secondary school students in Ijebu Ode, Ogun State, Nigeria. The study methodology was a descriptive survey, and the sample size of 350 junior secondary school students in Ijebu Ode from five public schools was chosen using a simple random sampling procedure. The Mathematics Achievement Test (MAT) and the Interest and Motivation towards Learning Mathematics Scale (IMLMS), with reliability coefficients of 0.77 and 0.81, respectively, were used in the study. Multiple regression analysis, Pearson Product Moment Correlation, and descriptive statistics were used to analyze the data gathered. The results showed that motivation and interest positively impact student achievement in school. They further demonstrated the independent factors' combined influence on the dependent variables. Based on the results, it is determined that junior secondary school students in Ijebu Ode, Ogun State, Nigeria, have high academic achievements in mathematics and that both motivation and interest jointly predict academic achievement. To improve students' mathematics achievement, it is advised that schools actively support these factors during the teaching and learning processes. The Ministry of Education needs to require all schools to implement student-motivating policies.

Abstract

This study looked into how using a laboratory teaching style affected the math performance of elementary school students, in Ijebu Ode, Ogun State, Nigeria. A quantitative study was adopted using Pre-test, Post-test, and Control group quasi-experimental designs. The study involved a total of seventy (70) primary four pupils, separated into two whole groups from separate institutions. We used one class as the experimental group, where the laboratory teaching strategy was implemented and the other class served as the control group, utilizing conventional teaching methods. Mathematics performance tests (r = 0.76) were administered to collect data on academic performance, in addition to carrying out the experimental group's treatment plan and the control group's traditional methods. An analysis of the data was done with ANCOVA, revealing the laboratory teaching technique has a noteworthy favorable impact on students' academic performance. However, gender was found to have not much influence on academic achievement, and likewise, the interaction effect was not significant. The findings bolster the assertion that the laboratory teaching strategy is an effective way to raise primary school pupils' performance in mathematics. As a recommendation, it is suggested that mathematics teachers should be encouraged to integrate this approach into their teaching practices.
