| dc.description.abstract | This study focuses on the participation of girls in mathematics at secondary level. This is a survey research that attempts to describe the participation level of girls’ students in secondary level mathematics and to analyze the participantion of girls. Four secondary schools were selected randomly from all schools of Gorkha District including one rural and three urban areas. One set of opinionnaire schedule was administered to find out the level of girls participation in mathematics class of selected class of sample secondary schools. And one set of opinionnaire scale was prepared and distributed to the girls’ students to find out the effect of teaching learning process, home environment, school environment, social variable and self interest towards mathematics in girl participation. Concerning to above factors unstructured interviews was taken with mathematics teachers from respective sample secondary schools. Statistical test such as: c2- value was used to interpret the result and reflection was made over the statistical. This study shows that the participation of girl students is low in comparison to boys in Mathematics. The main factors that affect the participation of girls are: male dominated society, less priority was given by parents to their daughter than sons, different error made by students in solving mathematical problem, home environment, school environment, teaching learning process, drill and practice. At last, it is concluded that girls are equally able and should be given equal facilities at home and at school to learn mathematics. Parent and teachers should not consider boys are assert and daughter as a liability. | en_US |
