- W3199764329 abstract "Since students spend a majority of time outside of school each day it is reasonable to expect many factors greatly influence learning in school. This research attempts to examine the relationship between environment and mathematics proficiency. The following factors will be examined and compared to results of the Connecticut Mastery Test and the California Achievement Test. 1) PERIODICALS - number of books, magazines, and newspapers in a household that are age appropriate. 2) HOMEWORK - amount of time spent on mathematics homework during a given week (Monday - Friday.) 3) TELEVISION - amount of time spent watching television during a given week (Monday - Friday) In 1986, NCTM did a study involving 7th graders and their feeling about math. Of those surveyed 55% said they liked math, 60 % said they were good at math, and 51% found math easy. Yet a large percent of Connecticut students fail to perform at grade level. The obvious question then seems to arise, Why is there a large emphasis placed on Connecticut students doing well on the mathematics portion of the mastery test? Looking back at the 1986 study one might ask, does liking math act as an indicator that students will do well, or are there greater outside influences? Family stability, close friendships and stable neighborhoods may have the greatest influences on mathematics achievement. When students are provided with role models, offered advice, comfort and security then self-esteem is high, therefore, so is achievement. Adolescence physically change more than at any other time in their lives. Physical, hormonal and cognitive changes occur at the same time that students are trying to understand who they are becoming. What teachers and students do in schools determines how much learning takes place. Many student behaviors may be viewed as manifestations of a large number of hard to measure influences in the learning and interest in math. In order to enrich the curriculum of the home parents should provide books, supplies and a special place for studying. Reading is a basic life skill. It is a cornerstone for a child's success in school and, indeed throughout life. Reading begins in the home. A good reader skillfully integrates information in the text with what already known. Students who read a lot make greater gains on reading achievement tests. They tend to come from homes in which there are plenty of books or opportunities to visit the library. Homework seems to be in the hot seat, especially in the west. Homework is most useful when teachers carefully prepare the assignment, thoroughly explain it and give comments when it is completed. Homework is a useful tool to gain experiences in directions, making judgments and comparisons. Students tend to develop responsibility and self-discipline that transfer to other aspects of their lives. Most research on homework deals with the amount of homework in general, not on any one subject. Homework has been found to boost achievement because total time spent studying influences how much is learned. Many parents…" @default.
