Abstract

This study explores teachers’ perceptions of their efficacy in teaching students with mathematics learning difficulties, also known as dyscalculia. This study employed a quantitative survey method. Random cluster sampling was used to select 384 mathematics teachers in the survey. Teaching Students with Mathematics Learning Difficulties Scale has been adapted with permission from Dawson & Scott (2013). Inferential statistics of independent t-test, analysis of variance, and Kruskal Wallis H-test were used to analyze the data. The results showed that teachers have high efficacy in teaching students with mathematics learning difficulties. There is no significant difference in teachers’ effectiveness in teaching students with mathematics learning difficulties based on age groups and years of experience. However, the findings show a significant difference in teachers’ effectiveness based on different academic qualifications. This study implies that the awareness of dyscalculia among mathematics teachers has increased. Future researchers are suggested to design and develop more interventions and instruments to improve the basic mathematical skills among students with mathematics learning difficulties.

Abstract

Based on student perceptions, this study describes mathematics teachers' personalities and social competence at MTsN 2 Cirebon. This study examines and describes mathematics teachers' personalities and social competencies based on student perceptions of MTsN 2 Cirebon. This type of research uses mixed research methods and a sequential explanatory design. The population in this study was all class VIII MTsN 2 Cirebon, and the sample in this study was 134 students. The data collection techniques are questionnaires and interviews using instruments like questionnaire results and interview guidelines. The data analysis used is descriptive statistics and descriptive qualitative. The results showed that the description of the personality competence of mathematics teachers at MTsN 2 Cirebon, according to the analysis of student perceptions in general, was categorized as good with a percentage of 72.67%, which was supported by the results of student interviews stating that the teacher always dressed neatly and according to the official schedule, starting and ending timely learning. However, there are indicators of personality competence that have not been maximized, namely the teacher being a role model for students, with a smaller percentage than the other three indicators of personality competence, namely 68.38%. Moreover, the social competence of mathematics teachers at MTsN 2 Cirebon, according to the analysis of student perceptions in general, is categorized as good. Supported the results of student interviews state that the teacher, when in class, interacts well with students and cares about students by reprimanding, advising, and repeating learning that has not been understood, but if outside the classroom, the teacher is just ordinary, not so close, just saying hello like other teachers.

Abstract

This study empirically reviews ICT and mathematics learning in Nigeria through a systematic literature review. Relevant articles and journals were identified to examine international students' teaching and learning experiences. Research shows that even if teachers believe that students need to understand mathematics or that the use of ICT improves students' development, students still need to solve problems. It may indicate that They do not incorporate her ICT into math classes or use it in traditional ways to impart knowledge. Her effective use of ICT in mathematics education may lead to more learner-centered classroom practices. These changes are widely believed to impact mathematics teaching and to learn positively. For example, ICT can enrich students' mathematics learning experience, increase their interest in mathematics, and change their attitudes toward mathematics. With the proliferation of online e-teaching, flipped classrooms are becoming a new trend in digital learning. The study recommends that ICT tools be made available by all parties to teachers and students with appropriate Internet access to achieve solid academic performance in mathematics. Governments at all levels need to increase their budgets for education and ensure that the money allocated for education is entirely spent.

Abstract

This study examined the effects of computer-aided instruction (CAI) and conventional teaching methods on high school biology performance. He was randomly selected from each of his two schools to take two science courses. An unequal, quasi-experimental, pre-test, and post-test design were used. Students in the experimental group used their CAI to learn cellular respiration (a biological concept), while the control group learned the same cellular respiration using a conventional approach. Independent and paired-samples t-tests were used to analyze pre-and post-test results for both experimental and control groups. Results showed that students taught using the traditional approach performed better on the post-test than those taught using the CAI. However, students in the experimental group performed better after being instructed to use the CAI. The results also showed that underperforming students performed better after being tutored at CAI. This indicates that CAI is more effective in teaching underperforming students.

Abstract

The study reveals the economic behavior of fisherfolks that governs their decisions to practice accounting in Partido district, Camarines Sur, Philippines. Economic behavior was modeled and measured through the following parameters: the socioeconomic characteristics of the fisherfolks and their economic transactions; the economic perceptions on socioeconomic contribution, market sustainability, and financial viability of fishing activity; the recordkeeping practices they adopt and constraints they encounter; and the Willingness to participate in accounting enhancement programs. Nonlinear models were utilized, and a causal-explanatory design was applied. The survey was conducted throughout the four sectors of the district. Most fisherfolks are married men with an average age of 45. Most are elementary graduates, have 7-8 children, and are impoverished. They have been observing 6 recordkeeping practices and have asserted 14 types of constraints. They have identified 10 economic transactions that need a formal bookkeeping system and expressed 21 economic perceptions about the fishing industry. Based on probit models, 11 variables govern their decisions to practice accounting: 2 socioeconomic characteristics; 3 composite economic perceptions; 3 composite economic transactions; and 3 fishing activities as control variables. Finally, the study proposes policy interventions to improve the livelihood and uplift the accounting practices of fisherfolks.
