Abstract
The present research entitle,“Student’s Achievement Taught by Teacher with
and without Education Background” has done to find teaching performance of with
and without education background teachers in learning mathematics at secondary
level based on the objectives; to compare the achievement of student taught by
teachers with and without education background at secondary level, to find the status
of teaching learning activities applied by the teachers from education and non
education background
The survey research was adopted to fulfill the purpose of the study.The study
was quantitative as well as qualitative in nature.The quantitative information was
taken by administrating an achievement test among eight hundred students of grade
IX students taught by teacher with and without education background. In the test
mean, standard deviation was calculated for each group and t-test was applied to
compare the mathematical achievement of students taught by teachers with and
without education background. Similarly,to collect the qualitative information class
observation form were applied among 10 education background teachers and 10 non
education background teachers of mathematics at secondary level.In conclusion both
quantitative and qualitative analysis advised that education background teachers are
slightly forward than non education background teachers. The quantitative analysis
advised that the student taught by education background teachers can achieve higher
achievement than student taught by non education background teachers. Similarly, the
performance of education background teachers in revision of lesson, organizing the
subject matter in sequential form, giving appropriate illustration to subject matter,
using methods & materials is found well than non education background teacher’s
form above the qualitative information collected by observation form.
