ABSTRACT
As more and more Kenyans attach great value to education, there is need to look at use
of instructional products on academic performance of students. Enough evidence
abounds to show that students have problems in understanding concepts and skills,
which are not systematically presented in mathematics. This study was designed to
investigate the instructional potential of instructional plans in the teaching and learning
of vectors in mathematics.
The study adopted the Solomon Four-group quasi-experimental design, which
compared performance of control (C) and experimental (E) groups drawn from
district public secondary schools in Makueni district. Three instruments were
used to collect data from 163 Form two students. These were: Mathematics
Achievement Test (MAT), Students’ Attitude Questionnaire (SAQ), and
Mathematics Lesson Observation Checklist (MLOC).
The study generated both qualitative and quantitative data that was analyzed
both descriptively and inferentially. Raw data was summarized descriptively by
use of frequencies, percentages, means and standard deviations while inferential
statistics i.e. one-way ANOVA and independent samples t-test were used to test
the statistical significance at 0.05 level of significance.
The findings indicate that the use of Instructional Plans in teaching and learning
of vectors resulted in significant learning gains, improved students’ attitude,
motivation and classroom interactions. Thus the use of Instructional Plans
enhanced the teaching and learning of vectors mathematics.
