A Study Of The Extent To Which Contextual Teaching And Learning Is Applied In Grade 11 And 12 Mathematics Classrooms In Secondary Schools In Gobabis

ABSTRACT

This study investigated the extent to which Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) was applied in grade 11 and 12 mathematics classrooms in secondary schools in the Gobabis area. It also sought to determine the types of contexts used and the underlying pedagogical strategies for the use of contexts as well as the factors that hindered the effective implementation of CTL of mathematics in grade 11 and 12 classrooms in the Gobabis secondary schools. Answers to the following questions were sought: (i) To what extent is CTL applied in grade 11 and 12 mathematics classrooms in secondary schools in Gobabis? (ii) To what extent does the Namibian Secondary Schools Certificate (NSSC) mathematics curriculum make room for CTL of mathematics? (iii) What types of everyday contexts are used in the NSSC mathematics classrooms in secondary schools in Gobabis? (iv) What are the underlying pedagogical strategies for the use of contexts in NSSC mathematics classrooms? (v) What views do Gobabis secondary school mathematics teachers hold on the use of CTL in mathematics? and (vi) What factors are hindering the effective implementation of CTL of mathematics in the secondary schools in Gobabis? The population of this study was made up of teachers teaching mathematics at NSSC level in the secondary schools in Gobabis. The sample comprised two mathematics teachers in the two purposefully selected secondary schools in the Gobabis area.
