“…Improved mathematical preparation in elementary and secondary schools is essential for students who intend to major in Math in college. The ability to solve problems is one of the crucial mathematical talents, and it's vital to develop it early on (Apriliyanto, 2018). When students are taught Math, one of the goals is to better prepare them to deal with challenges they may face in their everyday lives; consequently, it is anticipated that employing an appropriate learning model will foster greater levels of creativity and engagement on the part of students in the learning process (Abdullah et al, 2010).…”

Globally Project-Based learning is regarded as a replacement for the conventional, instructor-centered mode of education. PBL is an effective instructional strategy to change students’ attitudes toward learning. Yet, in Pakistani public schools, traditional teaching approaches are still employed. Given that these students’ math scores are abysmal and they have a negative attitude toward math, it is reasonable to test whether PBL can improve the attitudes of Pakistani public school children leading to better math scores. In the present study, a quasi-experimental design was used; the experimental group was treated with PBL intervention, while the control group was taught with the traditional teaching method. Before and after the intervention, pre-attitude and achievements were measured in both the experimental and control group. After the intervention, dependent variables were checked using the same instruments. An attitude scale, achievement test, and interview protocol tool were used to collect data. Findings revealed the Z score and p-value (z =-4.570, p = 0.00), supporting that the experimental group students improved their attitude towards Math learning due to PBL intervention. An independent sample t-test demonstrated a statistically significant difference between the experimental and control group (p = 0.00). Teacher and student interviews show that PBL has a positive effect on students’ attitudes and may increase their success. Furthermore, it has favorable impressions of the methodology. The results of this study may improve mathematics instruction and evaluation in the primary education system. Future studies should be done in different schools, grade levels, and ages to see how PBL works in different scenarios.

“…The problem-Based Learning Model can be considered an appropriate tool for achieving intended learning outcomes, interesting and more participating students' activities, and making an easy and comfortable environment for learners to understand subject matters and connect knowing mathematical knowledge to real life (Apriliyanto et al, 2018). The problem-based learning model is a kind of Students Center Teaching Learning Activities (SCTLA).…”

Background: Students' enrollment taking mathematics as a major subject has decreased at the university level in recent years. Difficulty in subject matters, the attitude of students, the learning environment, uses of mathematics knowledge in real life, and existing evaluation systems could influence learners' enrollments at the university level. The purpose of this study is to identify causes for reducing the learners' enrollment at a higher level in mathematics. Objective: This study desires to investigate the perception of teachers on the dependent variable as a reduction of students' enrollment in mathematics and independent variables, namely difficulty in subject matters, the attitude of learners, learning environment, application of mathematics in real life, and existing evaluation systems and find relation and influence. Methodology: This inquiry consists of 109 faculty members with qualifications of master’s degree or above in mathematics based on the survey research design in Pokhara valley and its surrounding. A three-point Likert-scale survey questionnaire, 31 structured questions related to dependent variables and independent variables was made and administered by the researcher to the teachers. Result: This study concluded that reducing learners’ enrollment is remarkably confidently correlated with the attitude of students, learning environment, difficulty in subject matters, and the existence of evaluation patterns. This finding further found that the learning environment and existing evaluation system are directly impacted by reducing the students’ enrollment, but other independent variables do not have an influence on the dependent variable, namely perception towards reduction of student enrolment in mathematics. Conclusion: The learning situation and actual judgment system are highly aff ected by reducing the students' enrollment at a higher level. These two independent variables should be managed by research to address the learners' interest and demand within a short time interval as an international system. Further study about the perceptions of teachers in pure mathematics and applied mathematics should be done separately to generalize and validate this finding.
