ABSTRACT
The purpose of this study was to ascertain the effect of Multimedia Projection on Senior Secondary
Students’ achievement and interest in Sets. Four research questions and six null hypotheses guided the
Study. The design of the study was quasi-experimental, non-equivalent Control Group Design. This design
was apt since randomization of subjects was not done and intact classes were used. The population for
the study was 2,809 SSI students made up of 1,246 males and 1,563 females and the sample size was
200 students from the four intact classes used for the study. Each intact class came from one co-
educational school used for the study-two from Nsukka zone for experimental and control groups.
Similarly, the other two came from Enugu Education zone, one for Experimental and the other for Control
group. Multistage sampling technique was employed for the study; purposive sampling was used in
selecting four state schools with functional computers. The four intact classes used were therefore
purposely drawn from the four coeducational schools in Enugu State of Nigeria. Balloting without
replacement was used in determining which of the two schools, in each education zone, becomes the
Experimental group’s school and which one becomes the Control group. The instruments of Set
Achievement Test (SAT) and Set Interest Scale (SIS) were used to collect data on the cognitive
achievement and interest of students in Sets respectively. The four research questions were answered
using means and standard deviations while Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was used in testing the
hypotheses at 0.05 levels of significance. The results revealed that the use of MUMPPAS in form of CAL
package as a teaching method increased students’ achievement and interest in sets more than the
conventional chalkboard method of teaching. Both male and female students achieved highly as a result
of the use of MUMPPAS and there was no significant interaction effect between MUMPPAS treatment
and gender on students’ achievement in Sets also interest of male and female students in experimental
group increased highly as a result of the use of MUMPPAS. However, there was significant interaction
effect between MUMPPAS and gender on students’ interest in Sets. Based on the results, it was
recommended among others that Mathematics teachers be trained on how to master the technique needed for preparation and use of CAL package like MUMPPAS for effective teaching and learning of different concepts in Mathematics by students.
CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
Background of the Study
Mathematics as a subject is the study of quantity, structure, space, relation, change and various topics of pattern, form and entity (Wikibooks, 2011). It promotes the training of the mind. It is an indispensable subject and the Queen of sciences (Guass, 1856).Borel(2014) stated that Mathematics is the queen of Sciences, a servant of Science subjects while Life (2014) viewed Mathematics as King of Arts, Queen of Science. It is also a science of number and shapes (Carl, 1984). Mathematics is used every day by everyone especially in this present scientific and technological world. Emphasis in Nigeria today is on technological development and mathematics is needed for this technological development. Linking Mathematics to development and progress through Science and Technology, Azuka (2002) stated thatthe arrows connecting mathematics with development and progress of any nation are as shown below:
