Abstract

The main aim of the research was to investigate the relationship between mathematical thinking of teachers and academic achievement of students at secondary school level in Sahiwal division. The major objective of this study was to find out relationship between mathematical thinking of teacher and student’s academic achievement and explore the effect of different level of mathematical thinking of teacher on students’ academic achievements. The study was descriptive correlational study based on observational survey design. The population of the study was 518 math teachers and 50659 students who were enrolled in secondary schools in session 2018-2019. Data was collected by observational check list from 19 secondary math teachersand also from 132 male students and 80 female students by self-developed questionnairefrom Sahiwal Division. The data was analyzed by SPSS 20.0 and found that there is strong relationship between developmental mathematical thinking of teachers and students academic achievement and significant positive weak relationship exist between deductive, integrative, and abstract mathematical thinking of teachers and students’ academic achievement while no relationship exist between inductive and analogical mathematical thinking of teachers and students’ academic achievement and strong relationship was found between developmental mathematical thinking of teachers and students’ academic achievement.

Keywords: Mathematical thinking, Mathematics achievement, Secondary school.
