SUMMARY, CONCLUSION, IMPLICATION AND ... - information library

This chapter is concerned with summary conclusion, implications, recommendations, limitations of the study and suggestions for further study?

5.1?? SUMMARY

The main objective of this study is to investigate the causes and effects of phobia in mathematics among the secondary school student in?? Abakaliki Local? Government Area? to do this, a set of structured questionnaire was? distributed to one hundred and? twenty(20)? students and teachers from the ten (10)? selected? secondary? schools in Abakaliki Local Government?

Area.

??????????? The questionnaire sought to find the causes of phobia in mathematics among the secondary school students, the? effects and impacts on the national? development.? The data collected was collected in tables frequencies, means and analyzed. Based on? the data analysis, conclusion?? were drawn

5.2 CONCLUSION

Based on the data analysis and findings of the study discussed above, the following conclusions could be drawn.

i.???????? ?That? there are many causes of phobia? in mathematics? which includes among others, namely, lack of trained mathematics? teacher, students? negative mentality? towards? mathematics, inappropriate/effective teaching methods, inadequate/poor instructional materials and poor personalities of some? mathematics?? teachers were identified

ii.????? That the phobia in mathematics? has?? multianfeious effects? among which are poor academic performance is both? WAEC and NECO and JAMB examinations? massive cheating in public exanimation

iii.??? That the impact of this phobia in mathematics are enormous on the national development, it prevents many students from gaining admission in most Nigerian universities hampers development of science? and technologies in? Nigeria. It also engender poor manpower in? mathematics professions as?? it influences to? great extent the? students? choice? of ceruse? of study in? Nigerian

5.3? IMPLICATION OF THE? FINDINGS

??????? From the findings and the conclusion above, there are certain?? implication? which have?? been observed the? students total abandonment of mathematics lesson looms? around? our education? environment , phobia as has been defined is clinical intense? fear often irrational leading? to a compulsive need to withdraw avoid a thing or event . It therefore? follows that every measure? necessary should be put? in place to address it? on? the students, some of the causes such ?lack of trained teachers should be urgently solve? by the government through proper resentment of? qualified? teaches to? handle the subject,? these expert? teacher know how to? arouse and sustain? the? students interests in learning mathematics. ???

The? student?s? poor? reading cultures? do not help at all, this ahs become? national problem that needs aggressive? measure otherwise, in? no distance? time Nigerian? students?? may start avoiding schooling, this? has happened to?? the United States of American? in? the time past.

In adequate instructional materials obscures the effective lesson delivery, the?? implication of this is that, the students are? in danger of perceiving? mathematics an abstract subject that? exist in another planet

The teachers? should be exhibit? good?? behavior as role model to the? students and? smartly? dress so as to win? the? interests of their students, gone are the days when mathematics teachers used to dress shabbily, smoke or indulge in alcoholism, if?? this is the case, then no? student would? like to? model? such teaches,? it implies? that students attitudes?? towards? the subject would be negative

The all-year? round poor and? low achievements and performances? of? our ?students? in mathematics, after? six consecutive? and continuous?? mathematics education?? in? post primary school has become a serious problem? facing?? teachers,? parents? and government?? parents?? are? the worst?? hit, ?the value? for the money? they invested on the children? and wards education ?are not justified? in? the end. Government in the other hand, is affected as its citizens are hindered from advancing in the world of education?

?Cheating in the examinations is another serious threat caused by phobia in mathematics, students want to credit? mathematics by any means within this reach thereby?? absconding without the necessary basic mathematics?? knowledge? needed to be acquire this has affected the? qualities of? graduates? produced in the? end who would? be faced? with challenges? that might need? the mathematics? knowledge acquired? during?? their post primary? school to solve.

The Nigeria sate is battles? to be? among the twenty? 920)? most industrialized national in? the year 2020?? in what? is?? called vision? (20-20-20)? MDGs,? the? industries? in questions? cannot? be manned? b? politicians but? those who? acquired knowledge? in science and? technology?? and mathematics, this? means? that if the? students of? secondary school? are not made to?? think in this directions, than above? dreams? would be a mere mirage

5.4 RECOMMENDATIONS

The findings on the study revealed that?? certain factors are responsible for phobia in mathematics?? among the secondary school students. Based on the findings, the researcher is making the following recommendations which if followed, would at least reduce to the barest minimum if not completely eradicated, the phobia mathematics. ???

1.????? ?Teachers should develop positive relationship with students and stress? classroom activities, that will? involve? active teaching-learning process? and? students participation in? the class

2.????? ?Student should create enough time? for personal practice of mathematics??

3.????? Government through secondary schools, faculties of education , state and?? federal ministry of? education, professional bodies? such? as the mathematical association? of Nigeria? (MAN),? science teachers? association? of Nigeria (STAN)? and other stakeholders in the education?? industry? should organize periodic seminars and workshops??? for students , parents, teachers and school?? administrators on? the need? to implement mathematics education?? thoroughly, allay the fears in the minds of the students.

The recruitment of teaches should only be base on qualifications and merit. The acute shortage of mathematics teacher should? be urgently? addressed
