MAIN OBJECTIVE:

To investigate the relationship between student motivation and academic performance in

mathematics.

To explore the impact of teaching strategies on students’ mathematical achievement.

To identify factors that contribute to students’ success in learning mathematics.

To examine the role of parental involvement in students’ academic performance in mathematics

To investigate the effectiveness of using technology in teaching mathematics and its impact on
academic performance.

To explore the differences in mathematical achievement between male and female students.

To identify the effect of cultural background on students’ mathematical performance.

To investigate the relationship between students’ self-efficacy beliefs and their academic
performance in mathematics.
To explore the role of teacher-student interaction on students’ mathematical achievement.

To identify the impact of early mathematical education on students’ later academic

performance in mathematics.

DELINEATED FACTORS:

1. Demographic factors: Research should consider demographics such as gender, socio-

economic status, race, and ethnicity to understand how these factors may impact academic
performance in mathematics.

2. Curriculum and instruction: The curriculum and teaching methods used in mathematics
instruction can have a significant impact on student performance. Research should explore the
relationship between instructional strategies and student outcomes.

3. Teacher qualifications and experience: The qualifications and experience of mathematics

teachers can also play a role in student performance. Research may examine the impact of
teacher expertise, credentials, and experience on student outcomes.

4. Classroom environment: The classroom environment can affect student engagement and
motivation, which in turn can impact academic performance in mathematics. Research may
explore the relationship between classroom climate, student engagement, and mathematics
achievement.

5. Parental involvement: Parental involvement in a child's education can have a positive impact
on academic performance. Research should consider the role of parental involvement in
mathematics performance.

6. Technology use: Technology use in mathematics instruction is becoming increasingly

common. Research should explore the impact of technology on student performance in
mathematics.
7. Student attitudes and beliefs: Student attitudes and beliefs about mathematics can impact
their motivation and performance. Research may examine the relationship between student
attitudes and beliefs and mathematics achievement.

8. Assessment and evaluation: The ways in which mathematics performance is assessed and
evaluated can impact student outcomes. Research should explore the impact of different
assessment and evaluation strategies on student performance.

9. School and district policies: School and district policies related to mathematics instruction can
also impact student outcomes. Research should explore the relationship between policies such
as class size, teacher evaluation, and funding, and mathematics achievement.

10. Special education and inclusion: Students with disabilities or other special needs may
require different instructional strategies and accommodations. Research should consider the
relationship between special education and inclusion practices and mathematics performance.

METHODOLOGY:

Sample Selection: The study will use a random sampling technique to select a representative
sample of students from different levels (elementary, middle, and high school) to participate in
the study.

Data Collection: The research will use a mixed-methods approach to collect data, including
surveys, interviews, and mathematical achievement tests.

Data Analysis: The quantitative data collected will be analyzed using statistical analysis
techniques such as regression analysis, ANOVA, and descriptive statistics. The qualitative data
collected will be analyzed using content analysis techniques.
Instrumentation: The study will use standardized achievement tests to measure students'
mathematical achievement. Surveys and interviews will be used to collect information on
motivation, teaching strategies, parental involvement, and other factors that may affect
academic performance in mathematics.

Ethical Considerations: The study will adhere to ethical principles such as informed consent,
confidentiality, and respect for participants' privacy.

Validity: The study will use standardized achievement tests to ensure the validity of the data
collected. Moreover, the research will also use triangulation to ensure the validity of the
findings.

Reliability: The study will ensure the reliability of the data by using standardized achievement
tests and conducting a pilot study to test the survey instruments.

Data Management: The study will ensure proper management of the data collected, including
data storage, security, and backup.

Limitations: The study will acknowledge any limitations such as sampling bias, data collection
errors, and limitations of the study design.

Conclusion: The study will draw conclusions based on the analysis of the data collected and will
provide recommendations for educators and policymakers to improve academic performance in
mathematics.

MAJOR FINDINGS:

Students who are highly motivated to learn mathematics tend to have higher academic
performance in the subject than those who are not motivated.
Teachers who use inquiry-based and technology-based teaching strategies tend to have
students with higher academic performance in mathematics compared to those who use
traditional teaching strategies.

Parental involvement in students' education has a positive impact on students' academic

performance in mathematics.

Students who are actively engaged in mathematics classes tend to have higher academic
performance in the subject.

Male students tend to have higher academic performance in mathematics than female
students.

Cultural background can have a significant impact on students' academic performance in

mathematics.

Students who have high self-efficacy beliefs tend to have higher academic performance in
mathematics.

Positive teacher-student interaction can enhance students' academic performance in

mathematics.

Early mathematical education has a positive impact on students' later academic performance in
mathematics.

Students who receive individualized attention and support from their teachers tend to have
higher academic performance in mathematics.
