ABSTRACT
The research is aimed at identifying the root causes of poor performance
in mathematics at Muukan Secondary Schools. The research involves the
students, mathematics teachers and principal of Murkan Secondary. The
education officer within Kirindon Division has also been involved in this
research.
To facilitate the research I have developed the questionnaires that have
been responded by selected students, mathematics teachers, principal
and quality assurance and standard officer within Kirindon Division. In
some case I have used oral question to supplement the question in the
questionnaires.
I found that there are many causes of poor mathematics in Murkan
Secondary but the one that I found to be the major cause is the negative
attitudes mathematics by both teachers and learners. Attitudes have
been found to be the key issues for effective teaching and learning of
mathematics.
The major recommendation I have given is that of motivating
mathematics teachers so as to develop positive attitudes towards
mathematics. The teachers should simplify the teaching of mathematics so as to arouse the interest of the students.
