Abstract:

 


This study sets out to examine the students and teachers' views on the
reasons of difficulties secondary school students face in mathematics and their
recommendations through a qualitative method. A form consisting of open-ended
questions was utilized as a data collection instrument. The form was
administered to 33 secondary school mathematics teachers and 167 students in
Ankara. In the determination of participants, "maximum variation sampling", a
purposive sampling type considered among the non-random sampling methods, was
employed.  A code list was formed in data
analysis. The code lists were thematically coded by attaching the codes related
to one another. The analysis of the students' opinions on the causes of
difficulties in mathematics could be summarized in the following themes:
reasons originating from teachers, students, material and environment, program
and system, readiness, and other reasons. The themes related to the students'
and the teachers' suggestions for solutions were found out as the followings:
suggestions concerning content, teachers and their methods, material and
environment, duration, student’s work and other suggestions. Suggestions at the
end of the study are as follows: The content of mathematics courses can be
reduced and the curriculum can be reviewed. Mathematics teachers can be offered
in-service training on specific teaching methods and instructional techniques.
