Abstract
This thesis entitled “Exploring the Participation of Student in Mathematics Learning” is
an attempt to study how students are take parting or engaging in mathematics learning. It focuses
on the way of engagement of the students in mathematics learning at school and out of the
school.
According with time Nepal’s also changing in its political, social and cultural aspect.
Rapid urbanization and interest of people to live in urban culture is increasing. Now a day the

of the present day world. Thus for the effective and productive education system research can
plays the vital role to manipulate the education in path of development of nation.
The study aims to examine the learners in mathematics learning regarding on their
participation like engaging fashion, way of involvement, exposure, learning style in and outside
the school and the affect of mathematics education in their learning activities in mainstream
education system of Nepal. Mainly the study focuses on the how the students are acting or take
parting in mathematics education as being the focal point of the education system. The study is

terms of regularity, their economic increment, positive attitude towards education, investment in the child education by their parents are appreciative. Particularly in case of mathematics learning
students are not taking commonly and they are performing uncomfortably. There have been
shown some of the hurdles in mathematics learning. This research suggests for concerned bodies
which can be removed by clever compilation of the components of mathematics learning.
