Journal Title: Psychology and Education: A Multidisciplinary Journal - Year 2024, Vol 19, Issue 7
Abstract
This study focused on the motivational teaching strategies in Mathematics in the new normal in Jimmy Carter Middle School, Albuquerque Public Schools, during the school year 2021-2022 to improve the learners' performance. It looked into the mathematics teachers' profile, the learners' performance level during the first quarter, the significant relationship between the profile of the teachers and their performance in Mathematics, and learners’ attitudes toward studying Mathematics. The researcher found that most mathematics teachers are educationally qualified, have minimum teaching experience, and have attended various seminars about mathematics. The learners obtained a very satisfactory performance. The profile of the teachers is significantly related to the level of performance of the learners in Mathematics. The attitude of the learners towards Mathematics, along with school-related factors such as Study habits and Peers Family – family-related factors like Parents and Siblings, and Teacher–related factors are the factors affecting the learners' performance. The proposed motivational strategies could improve the attitude and performance of learners towards Mathematics. The researcher recommended that the proposed motivational strategies be presented to the Superintendent for their reproduction and utilization to help the mathematics teachers. Teachers should make instructional materials to improve the performance of the pupils. Such interventions/materials help them understand more clearly the concepts. Parents and teachers should join hands in improving the performance of the learners. Teachers should tell the parents about their children's difficulties in learning Mathematics. Parents should also monitor the performance of their children in the school. They should give their full support in their studies, like attending PTA meetings and having follow-ups in their studies. The skills that are least learned in mathematics should be emphasized in teaching. Teachers should use appropriate strategies and techniques to develop the skills and give more exercise for the students to master the skills.
