Two independent experiments were conducted to assess whether the use of self-assessment as a form of formative assessment will be more effective in terms of mathematics performance and mathematics attitude to the Grade eight students of the Laboratory High School of Rizal Technological University during the school year 2014-2015. Two groups in each experiment were exposed to self-assessment while the other two groups were exposed to an ordinary formative assessment method which is the conduct of daily quizzes which is more of objective type. It has been found that both formative assessment were equally effective in terms of the mathematics performance but in terms of attitude level, the use of self-assessment is statistically more effective. The performance of the students between the controlled and experimental group is not significantly different due to attribution...

Content areas covered in elementary mathematics include whole numbers, rational numbers, geometry, measurement, and graphs. Fifty grade school mathematics teachers of Muntinlupa Elementary School, Philippines, during the school year 2011-2012 were the participants of the study. They were administered a multiple-choice type test designed to measure their conceptual knowledge and procedural skills in elementary mathematics. Data obtained from this study reveal that the participants have generally low level of conceptual knowledge and procedural skills in elementary mathematics. Level of conceptual knowledge is particularly very low in measurement and graphs while level of procedural skills is very low in geometry. When grouped according to grade levels, all teachers have the same level of conceptual knowledge and procedural skills. However, grade si...

The study utilized the Pre-test Post-test Comparison Group Design. The effect of language of encouragement and praise on mathematics anxiety, self-efficacy, and mathematics performance was determined by comparing the students' pre-test and post-test scores. The results revealed that techniques have adaptive effects on mathematics anxiety, self-efficacy, and mathematics performance of students. To support the claim that encouragement is better than praise, the mean differences of the post-tests of two groups were obtained using t-test for independent samples. The results showed significant results in all outcome variables which reveals that encouragement can reduce mathematics anxiety, increase self-efficacy, and improve mathematics performance of students much better than praise. Mathematics anxiety and sel...
