Journal Title: International Journal of Research and Review - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 9
Abstract
Examination malpractice is a scourge and thorn in the flesh of our educational sector in Nigeria. In mathematics, the primary cause of examination malpractice is deeply rooted and buried in fear of failure which is caused by inadequate preparation and lack of effective utilization of mathematics study techniques by students. This creates a fertile breeding ground for mathematics phobia leaving many students who are bent on passing at all cost in the cold black hands of examination malpractice as their only way to success. Educational scholars have placed much emphasis on teaching methods and strategies at the expense of learning strategies. If teachers are aided with much teaching methods and strategies to teach, what of the learning strategies or techniques to help students improve on their learning? This paper summarizes the right Mathematics study techniques that serve as important, interesting and motivating tools for students’ success that break the jinx of Mathematics phobia and examination malpractice to make anyone who applies them accurately to be successful in mathematics. The outstanding techniques emphasized here are the mathematics study model, Practice, and mathematics rough work.
