Item The effects of student's interest to their mathematics performanceCaballes, Danibie V. (Davao del Sur State College, 2024-01)Determining the relationship between student's interest in mathematics and their performance in the subject in grade 7 at Manual National High School in Kiblawan, Davao del Sur, is the main objective of this study. Pertaining to the 2022-2023 academic, 60 students from Manual National High School participated in the survey. A survey checklist questionnaire administered face-to-face served as the tool. The researcher took ownership of the used instrument. The following conclusions were drawn from the use of descriptive statistics and correlation tools. Students at Manual National High School in grade 7 frequently show interest in their mathematical performance. The results indicated that we should reject our null hypothesis. The motivation to learn mathematics and the quality of mathematics instruction have a substantial impact on math performance. Peer assisted learning, the motivation to learn mathematics, and the quality of mathematics instruction all have a 3.87 degree of relationship that is frequently positive.Item Working memory and mathematics performance of STEM senior high school studentsSerenio, Niño N. (Davao del Sur State College, 2024)Working memory played a pivotal role in students' academic progress and achievement, particularly in realm of mathematics. This descriptive-correlational study aimed to investigate the potential impact of students' working memory on their performance in STEM-related subject, specifically focusing on mathematics, within the context of Matanao national High School. Employing a complete enumeration sampling method, the study gathered data from 167 respondents comprising grade 11 and 12 STEM senior high school students during the academic year 2023-2024. These students willingly participated in this study. The findings unveiled a nuanced picture of students' working memory capacities. While the analysis indicated a moderate level of verbal working memory among the participants, it showcased a notably higher proficiency in visuospatial working memory. Moreover, delving into the relationship between students' working memory and their performance in mathematics, the study uncovered a significant correlation between working memory and mathematics performance of STEM senior high school students of Matanao National High School. These results underscored the critical role of working memory in shaping students' academic achievements, particularly in mathematics. By emphasizing the importance of nurturing and enhancing students' working memory abilities, educators potentially fostered improved performance and learning outcomes in mathematics and related STEM fields.
