Abstract

This study aims to investigate the factors that impact students' interest and performance in chemistry in Kandahar City. Utilizing a written questionnaire delivered to high school students through random simple sampling, this study examines various factors, including school resources, the school environment, teacher- and student-related issues, curriculum and study materials, and the lack of practical resources such as chemical labs. The data demonstrate that most students were uninterested in chemistry owing to insufficient effort, incompetent teachers, difficulty in grasping complicated topics, and poor parental support. These difficulties are exacerbated by a lack of active engagement in class, a lack of a strong study culture, and financial constraints of many families. Furthermore, the lack of appropriate chemical laboratories exacerbates these issues. The study emphasizes the critical need for engaging in teaching techniques, enhanced learning settings, better resources, and support systems to increase students' interest, engagement, and comprehension of chemistry.
