Motivational Factors among Grade Six Maguindanaoan Learners in Mathematics at Sampao Elementary School

Elmer Solinap

Discipline: Mathematics

 

Abstract:

This study determined that the mathematics performance of the Grade 6 Maguindanaon learner was influenced by motivational factors. It adopted a descriptive-correlation research design with 15 learners and 15 parent participants. The study shared that Grade 6 Maguindanaon learners’ academic performance was generally Fair. Pearson R showed that the teacher factor affects academic performance. Parent and Peer factors do not affect their academic performance. Results also showed that the attitude of learners significantly affects their academic performance, but study habits do not. The mean score and standard deviation of each factor are used to assess them and try to understand their motivation level. Among the factors related to teacher behavior, these may prove to be significant. These factors include teachers’ demonstration of well-organized lessons and mastery during the presentation (mean=4.46, Std. Dev.=0.51); also, when they show enthusiasm or interest in their subject matter (mean=4.67, Std Dev.= 0.51) plus adjusting instruction method so that it matches the pupils’ learning activities (mean = 4.66, Std. Deviation = 0.48).
