Purposive sampling procedure was used as sampling procedure in which four primary level teachers of public school. This is the Narrative inquiry design so data were collected through classroom observation and semi-structured interview to get in depth data. The study showed that both English and Nepali languages are used as medium of instruction. Likewise teachers are positive towards the implementation and practice of EMI thoroughly. Encouragement and motivation are the key points for the progress of the students. But it is found that there is gap between perception and classroom practice. Most of the teachers face lack of subject wise training, materials and students related problems while implementing EMI. This thesis consists of five chapters. The first chapter deals with the general background of the study, statement of the problem, objectives of the study, research questions, significance of the study, delimitations of the study and operational definitions of the key terms. The second chapter consists of review of theoretical literature, review of related empirical literature, implication of the review for the study and conceptual framework. Similarly, the third chapter is about methodology used in this study. It deals with the design of the study, population of the study, sampling procedures and research tools and data collection procedure and ethical consideration. The fourth chapter consists of result and discussion, and the analysis and interpretation, where the fifth chapter presents the findings, conclusion and recommendations related to the policy level, practice level and further research of the study on the basis of the analysis and interpretation of data, followed by references and appendices.Item Present Situation in Teaching Geometry at Public School(Faculty of Education Mathematic, 2017) Raut, RanjeetThe major focus of this study was to investigate. The present situation in teaching geometry at public school of Chitwan district. The main objectives of this study were: to explore the present situation in teaching geometry at public school, to explore the challenges of public school’s teachers and students in teaching geometry and to explore the possible ways to overcome these challenges. To achieve these objectives, I selected the qualitative design with case study approach. The study site is Chitwan district. I used purposive sampling technique to select the participants. Adopting this procedure, four secondary level mathematics teachers and eight students of grade-X of public schools of Chitwan district were selected as sample. The data was mainly obtained by using interview guideline and class observation. I analyzed the information by using different theories to produce the information and draw conclusion on the study. Then it was found that teaching-learning geometry is less satisfactory in Chitwan district. Teachers and students face challenges in learning geometry because of not using appropriate teaching- learning pedagogy, less comprehension of geometrical concepts and teachers teach geometry theoretically rather than practically. Similarly, to overcome these challenges by applying collaborative teaching –learning approach, avoiding rote memorization, providing reinforcement in the classroom, integrating culturally relevant content and pedagogy in the curriculum. Then geometry teaching- learning situations become interesting and meaningful.
