Item Challenges faced by married female students in mathematics learning(Department of Mathematics Education, 2023) Bhatt, DharmatiThis study entitled "Challenges faced by married female students in mathematics learning" The main objective of this study were to find the areas of challenges of married female students in learning mathematics and to find the causes of challenges of married female students in learning mathematics. The study is based on case study which is qualitative nature conducted with the sample of four married female students and two women mathematics teacher of Tribhuvan University, Central department of mathematics Education. The case were selected based on purposive sampling. Tools for data collection of this study was in-depth interview and the collective data were analyzed with the help of descriptive method. From the above stated findings researcher concluded that Mathematics is a time consuming subject. This subject is not difficult, but married women are not able to take regular classes and can't spend time at home, so it has become a challenge for them. Such challenges include personal, family, socio-cultural, post-childbirth, etc. When women study for master's degree in mathematics after marriage, it is seen that some of them faced many challenges and some of them faced few challenges, while some of them got better opportunities than before marriage. It was seen that women who had children faced more challenges in learning mathematics than women who did not have children. Before marriage, when the financial status of parents was weak, they had to work and support them, but after marriage, women did not feel comfortable even though they were financially strong.Item Classroom Discourse of Female Students in Culturally Diverse Classroom(Department of Mathematics Education, 2019) Karki, LilaThe major focus of this study was classroom discourse of female students in culturally diverse students in mathematics classroom. The objectives of this study were to explore the classroom discourse of female students in mathematics classroom and to explore the ways for making classroom discourse female students friendly from multicultural perspective. This study has addressed the question: How are existing teaching strategies in classroom discourse of cultural diverse female students? And how we make classroom discourse female students friendly? To answer these research questions I selected the qualitative design with case study approach. The study site of this study is Utperna Women Secondary School, Subidhanagar, Tinkune, Kathmandu. The participants of this study were two mathematics teacher, two mathematics educators, two grade eight students and two grade six students. Altogether eight person were the research participant in my study. I used purposive sampling to select the participants for my study. The collected data were analyzed with help of theories and related literatures. From the analysis of the data it was found that theoretically, teachers were well known about to prepare lesson plan but practically they was unable to practice. Furthermore, it was also concluded that present scenario of classroom discourse was more teacher centered. Further, it was concluded that though culturally-based pedagogy, using different strategies in teaching-learning mathematics in the classroom, by replication of communities of practice in the classroom, avoiding rote memorization, by implementing co-operative learning, through sharing with acculturation and enculturation, through multiple representations making classroom discourse students friendly.
