Abstract:
This study was conducted to improve the level of appreciation of grade eight (8) students of Mathematics using real-life application in the lesson. Both qualitative and quantitative data collection techniques were used for collecting data. The qualitative data was collected using structured interviews and checklist observation. While quantitative data was collected using a pre-survey and post-survey. As the researchers analyzed and interpreted the data gathered from the pre-survey and post-survey, the result showed that the level of appreciation for mathematics improved. Also, there is a significant difference between the level of appreciation for mathematics before and after implementing the intervention. However, students seemed to appreciate mathematics when the lesson was taught in a traditional manner, but it could be improved if it were taught and applied in a real-life situation. Therefore, applying and utilizing real-life scenarios in teaching mathematics can improve students’ appreciation of the subject.
