Teachers Attitude Towards Media in Teaching Mathematics

Abstract

This is the age of science and technology. The development of science and technology has impacted almost all the sector. So it has also impacted in the education sector. The teaching method is easy and interesting method due to science and technology. Here, the present thesis entitled"Teachers Attitude Towards Media in Teaching Mathematics" explores about the influence of technology that has impacted in the teaching and learning process in classroom as well as trying to show the teachers perception's to use media in teaching mathematics.For this study 30 teachers from community and 30 teachers from the institutional were selected as sample and opinionnaire has taken to them. Similarly the interview schedule and observation has taken among 10 teachers from both schools. By analyzing and interpretation of the obtained data, the researcher has found that both community and institutional school teachers have positive attitude towards using media in teaching and learning mathematics. They used media like computer, projectors and other devices in the field of education. They used Media for teaching mathematics for some specials topics like geometry, menstruation, trigonometry and so other related topics. It was observed that their teaching method is somehow different than the traditional teaching method but not completely modern teaching method. The use of media in teaching mathematics was found to be transitional, positive but not well skill full and trained. The institutional school teachers were found to be more consistencies with using media for teaching than community school teacher. Thus, the attitude of teachers towards using media was found more positive and motivating which is good sign for teaching and learning mathematics.
