Abstract

This study investigated the effect of the Think-Pair-Share instructional strategy on senior secondary school students' achievement in mathematics in Ogun state, Nigeria.  The study adopted a pre-test, post-test, and control group quasi-experimental research design with a 2X3X2 factorial matrix. The sample comprised 104 students from two classes of the SS2 students. Two instruments used were the Mathematics Achievement Test (MAT) and Instructional treatment packages (experimental and control). Data was analysed with descriptive and inferential statistics (Analysis of Covariance) to test hypotheses 0.05 significance level. The result showed a significant main effect of treatment and parental educational background on students' academic achievement in Mathematics (F (1,103) = 13.092; F (2,103) = 15.327 respectively, P < 0.05). It showed that students taught with the Think-Pair-Share instructional strategy recorded a higher adjusted post-test mean score in MAT (21.91). However, the outcomes of treatment and Parental education background levels contributed 35.4% and 39.5%, respectively, to the variance in students' achievement in mathematics. It is concluded that this strategy encourages students to participate actively and interact, thereby making them take responsibility for their learning. As part of the recommendations, mathematics teachers should be encouraged to use the think-pair-share instructional strategy as a variety tool in mathematics classrooms. Penelitian ini menyelidiki pengaruh strategi pembelajaran Think-Pair-Share terhadap prestasi siswa sekolah menengah atas dalam bidang matematika di negara bagian Ogun, Nigeria. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain penelitian kuasi-eksperimental pre-test, post-test, dan kelompok kontrol dengan matriks faktorial 2X3X2. Sampel terdiri dari 104 siswa dari dua kelas siswa SS2. Dua instrumen yang digunakan adalah Tes Prestasi Matematika (MAT) dan paket perlakuan instruksional (eksperimen dan kontrol). Data dianalisis dengan statistik deskriptif dan inferensial (Analisis Kovarians) untuk menguji hipotesis pada tingkat signifikansi 0,05. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan adanya efek utama yang signifikan dari perlakuan dan latar belakang pendidikan orang tua terhadap prestasi akademik siswa di bidang Matematika (F (1.103) = 13.092; F (2.103) = 15.327, P < 0.05). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa siswa yang diajar dengan strategi pembelajaran Think-Pair-Share mencatat nilai rata-rata post-test yang lebih tinggi dalam MAT (21,91). Namun, hasil dari perlakuan dan tingkat latar belakang pendidikan orang tua masing-masing berkontribusi sebesar 35,4% dan 39,5% terhadap varians pencapaian siswa dalam matematika. Dapat disimpulkan bahwa strategi ini mendorong siswa untuk berpartisipasi aktif dan berinteraksi, sehingga membuat mereka bertanggung jawab atas pembelajaran mereka. Sebagai bagian dari rekomendasi, guru matematika harus didorong untuk menggunakan strategi pembelajaran think-pair-share sebagai alat variasi di kelas matematika.

Abstract

Teachers’ factors is one of the factors that influencing students’ learning outcomes in mathematics at secondary school level observed. However, there is therefore needs for more research attention to be drawn to teachers’ job performance using some affective factors among the factors. Hence, this study therefore to investigate the mathematics teacher’s affective factors as a panacea for determining senior secondary school teachers’ job performance in mathematics in Ogun state. A descriptive survey research design and 203 public Senior Secondary Schools in Ogun East Senatorial Zone (Ijebu and Remo Block) of Ogun state, Nigeria was adopted. A total of 571 public teachers teaching mathematics in SSS were selected which contained male teachers were 306 (53.42%) and female teachers were 266 (46.58%); the qualified teachers were 424 (74.26%) and less qualified teachers were 147 (25.74%) and the experienced teachers were 426 (74.61%) and less experienced teachers were 145 (25.39%). Four instruments were employed to collect data for this study. Linear Multiple Regression Analysis was adopted to test for four statement of hypotheses formulated at 0.05 level of significance. The result revealed that the contribution of teachers’ stress management on senior secondary school mathematics teachers' job performance is little and significant (R2 = 0.023; F = 13.572; P < 0.05); Teacher’s stress management, Social abilities and teacher’s Motivation when combined together has little contribution on mathematics teachers’ job performance and significant (R2 = 0.039; F = 7.602; P < 0.05). It is therefore concluded that there is a statistically significant contribution of teachers’ stress management on senior secondary school mathematics teachers' job performance. One of the recommendations made is that Stakeholders should organize seminars and workshops and mandate mathematics teachers to attend at regular interval, to keep them abreast of modern trends in stress management healthy lifestyles and optimal performance.
