Importance and Necessity of Qualitative Transformation in Mathematics Education at the Secondary Level

Abstract

Mathematics education at the secondary level is a crucial determinant of a nation's future intellectual and economic vitality. This study focuses on initiating a qualitative transformation in mathematics education, aiming to enhance the teaching and learning experiences at the secondary level. The objective of this research is to identify and implement innovative strategies and methodologies that can bridge gaps, promote engagement, and improve student performance in mathematics. Teachers' views and actions in the context of collaborative planning have been informed by the viewpoint of Mathematics Exploratory Teaching mediated through inquiry, reflection, communication, and collaboration. As a result, it represents an aspirational approach to education because of its emphasis on students' critical thinking and its pursuit of complex and varied learning via technological incorporation. Due of the need for instructors to plan ahead for student referrals, the exploratory, communicative, reflexive, and collaborative features of Exploratory Teaching have supported the use of technology. By enhancing the quality of mathematics education at the secondary level, this study contributes to the development of a more mathematically proficient and competitive generation, ultimately strengthening the foundation for scientific and technological progress in our society.
