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.

Abstract

The study investigated the teaching methodology and the behavior of ordinary secondary school students in learning mathematics. This study sought to find behind the scenes why most students in ordinary secondary schools dislike mathematics, which leads to massive failures. To uncover this gap, the study applied a correlation research design. Systematic sampling technique of the interval 50th was used in which 100 respondents were selected; 20 respondents each from 5 selected secondary schools in Mbeya. Data were collected through a questionnaire. Data were analyzed descriptively and speculatively. The survey found that teaching materials/media were effectively implemented. Also, the findings indicate the non-adoption of informal behavior and non-reflection of mathematics teachings to the learner’s natural home environment. Thus, from these discrepancies, the study recommends that mathematics teachers be used to teaching simulation and visual aids/media. It is recommended that mathematics teachers use informal behavior such as courage words, remedial classes, and others for students adapted to mathematics-solving behavior. Lastly, it is suggested that mathematics teachings should be reflexive to students’ real-life environment.

Abstract

The current study seeks to discover the experiences of the school leaders towards their challenges during a pandemic and their coping mechanisms to provide quality education to the institution's students. The researcher applies narrative inquiry to a qualitative research design. A total of six deans and associate deans were selected as research participants through purposive sampling. Via an interview guide during the interview, the researcher gathered data and presented it using narratives. The results revealed that school leaders encountered many challenges, particularly in the immediate readiness of evaluation tools, accessibility of technology, relationships with coworkers, the University's learning continuity plan implementation, the execution of the course, and the systematic implementation of procedures. In contrast, the efforts made by the school leaders to battle the pandemic outbreak are vital for the education system to cope, including the delivery of webinars, training, and workshops, the availability of a plan for continuous learning, and the University's assistance to stakeholders. It is recommended that higher education institutions design and enhance their learning continuity plans, ensure that the manuals are appropriately disseminated, undertake curriculum enhancements for those programs requiring review, and follow the administration's instructions.

Abstract

The road is an infrastructure that is often passed by the community. If there is damage, it will significantly disrupt community activities; for example, road conditions become jammed. This is necessary for the Public Works and Spatial Planning Office of the City of Cirebon to handle the road repairs, but in carrying out repair planning, there are obstacles, one of which is the difficulty in determining priority for road repairs with limited funds from the center. This research decision support system using the Promethee II method aims to find accurate results that are useful in determining priority road repairs that will be selected for repair. The criteria used in this study are Section Length, Road Width, Damage Condition, Traffic Volume (LHR), and Road Access. The results of this study selected Jalan A1 as an alternative that had the highest rating level of 0.613333333, and this indicated that this road was a road that had to be prioritized for repair. The test results show that the Promethee II method can produce priority recommendations for road improvements based on the required criteria.

Abstract

The current study employs an autobiographical design. An autographical design is a type of qualitative approach affiliated with the social explanatory paradigm of research. The author of this article collected his published work, certificates of achievement, and degrees to present as the results of this study. He also used the memorization of his training, workshops, and seminars to present the findings. The results show that from July 2021, the author has upgraded himself from an English teacher to become a novice educational researcher, and his work has been concerning the English language and educational fields. Additionally, he presented how he became a researcher including the difficulties, challenges, and opportunities he experienced in his life over the last two years. He noted that English for teaching and learning is not the same as English for writing research articles. He also encouraged other teachers to engage in research since it is not as difficult as everyone might have expected, and it is the best way to solve the existing problems in all fields including learning and teaching. Besides, research is not only to solve problems but to improve the outcome of the process of learning and teaching as well as other concerning areas. He finally showed simple and easy ways that everyone could become researchers and how to get their work published.

Abstract

The bank with the appropriate capital adequacy ratio (CAR) is considered the more substantial bank that can meet its obligations and take risks. Thus, the bank management has to identify those factors influencing CAR. This study aims to identify the factors determining the CAR of commercial banks in Nepal. For this purpose, this study has used annual panel data of 6 joint venture commercial banks of Nepal from 2007 to 2021. This paper's regression analysis revealed that bank-specific factors significantly determine the capital adequacy ratio. Further, the study concluded that the financial performance measured by ROE and lending policy measured by the ratio of the total loan and advance to total assets (LTA) plays an inverse role. Liquidity LTD), management efficiency (ME), operational efficiency (OE), and the size of the bank (SIZE) play a positive role in determining the capital adequacy ratio. The bank's management can implement the findings of this paper to maintain a sufficient capital adequacy ratio. Further, the finding of this study can also be implemented by the regulatory bodies to develop policies relating to the capital requirements of commercial banks.
