Thesis Abstract

Abstract
The academic performance of students in mathematics is a critical concern for educators and policymakers worldwide. This study aims to investigate the various factors influencing student performance in mathematics, focusing on high school students. Through a case study approach, data will be collected from a sample of high school students to analyze the relationship between academic achievement in mathematics and factors such as socio-economic status, teaching methods, parental involvement, and student attitudes towards mathematics. The research methodology will involve a mixed-methods approach, including surveys, interviews, and academic records analysis. The literature review will explore existing research on student performance in mathematics, highlighting the importance of factors such as teacher quality, classroom environment, and student motivation. The study will also review relevant theoretical frameworks to guide the analysis of the data collected. The research methodology section will detail the data collection methods, sample selection process, and data analysis techniques used in the study. This section will also discuss the ethical considerations and limitations of the research. The findings section will present the results of the data analysis, providing insights into the factors that have the most significant impact on student performance in mathematics. The discussion will interpret these findings in the context of existing literature and theoretical frameworks, offering recommendations for educators and policymakers to improve student outcomes in mathematics. In conclusion, this study contributes to the understanding of the complex factors influencing student performance in mathematics among high school students. By identifying key factors that impact academic achievement in mathematics, this research aims to inform educational practices and policies to support student success in this critical subject area.
