Impact Of Van Hiele S Geometric Model On Pedagogical Abilities Of Nigeria Certificate In Education Mathematics Students In Niger State Nigeria

📄 Project Abstract

The purpose of this research, Impact of van Hieles geometric model on pedagogical abilities of Nigeria Certificate in Education mathematics students in Niger State is to provide a better intervention programme oriented toward mathematics Teacher preparation and professional development in Colleges of Education. One hundred and twenty (60 males and 60 females), Nigeria Certificate in Education mathematics students were both conveniently and randomly sampled from two colleges of education in Niger State. Two instruments were used for the study, a geometric achievement test and geometry teaching practice assessment with reliability coefficients of r=0.72 and 0.78 respectively. Also 1,617 Junior Secondary III students were involved. Six hypotheses were formulated and tested. The t - test was used to test hypotheses one to five and F - test was used to test hypothesis six respectively. The study revealed that significant difference exists between the mean scores of NCE II mathematics studen...
