Remedial Program and Students’ Performance Level in Solving Mathematical Problems
Marjohn C. Mantawil, Department of Education, Division of General Santos City
Many high school students find it very challenging to solve mathematical problems. Many students have reached high school without mastering the necessary skills in solving simple word problems. This study primarily aimed to determine the effects of the remedial program on the performance level of Grade 7 students in solving mathematical problems. A pre-experimental research design was utilized in this study using 33 purposively selected Grade 7 students as respondents. The researcher used a standardized examination tool in determining the performance level of the students. Based on the findings, most of the students had very poor performance level in solving mathematical problems before the conduct of the remedial program, and most of them still had a poor performance after the program. However, findings revealed that there was a significant difference between the performance levels of the students in solving mathematical problems before and after the conduct of the program which implied that there was a significant increase in the performance level of the students after the program. Moreover, there was a significant relationship between the performance level of the students in solving mathematical problems after the program and their attendance in the program.
