INTRODUCTION. This query work intends to make an investigation on shortsighted action in math Subject and the factors leading to brusk per figure outance of form four-spot students in Kimala vicarious tame which is the community school. This study leave also evaluate the performance of Kimala secondary school form four theme exam results of two old age as of 2011 and 2012. 2. 1.HISTORICAL BACKGROUND OF mathematics PERFOMANCE IN SECONDARY SCHOOLS IN TANZANIA collapseICULARLY KIMALA SECONDARY SCHOOL. maths is compulsory worst in Tanzania but it is the development in scientist matter in Tanzania and it is utilize as a major of instruction from secondary schools to tertiary level. completely official and legal documents atomic number 18 written appreciate the maths undecided as the best in refresh brain and to make mortal to calculate distributively and every thing in mathematics methods. Mathematics was introduced in Tanzania by the British during the colonial era. . 2. enigma STATEMENT The discipline to be investigated in this study is the performance of Mathematics dependant in form four matter examinations in Kimala secondary school. 1. 2. STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM The investigator wants to make an evaluation on t he performance of Mathematics field of battle in form four National examinations in Kimala secondary school. 1. 3. OBJECTIVES OF THE say 1. 4. GENERAL OBJECTIVE To evaluate the form four students Mathematics performance in National examinations. 1. 5.SPECIFIC OJECTIVE .To investigate how Mathematics beat is performed in National examinations by Kimala secondary school, form four students. .To examine and evaluate the Mathematics performance in form four National examinations of two years in Kimala secondary school. 1. 5. SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY The research impart support to improve Mathematics Subject and academic performance in Kimala secondary school. 1. 6. ORGANIZATION OF THE STUDY This research proposal consists of three (3) chapters.The first chapter go away help the researcher to discover the ca roles of poor Mathematics performance of form four students in Kimala secondary school. Chapter two will be near other researchers findings. Chapter three will talk about res earch methods which will be used in this research work. HYPOTHESIS OF THE STUDY 1. whitethorn be the lack of text book 2. May be the dearth of the can be the factor that affects the performance of form four students in Kimala secondary school 3. May be undisciplined of the students. DEFINITION OF TERMS. 1. 7. limit OF THE STUDYThe researcher faced some problems during research proposal writing as follows deprivation of enough funds for typing, printing and binding this research proposal. a. moulding OF THE STUDY. Researcher has tried to type, print and bind this proposal by using his pocket money. CHAPTER TWO 1. LITERATURE REVIEW. This chapter will provide a disgorge of reviewed literature which will be relevant to the study which will think over school environment in relation to performance of mathematics subject in Kimala secondary school. THE LACK OF TEACHING AND LEARNING MATERIALS AFFECT MATHEMATICS PERFORMANCE.Anderson, B (19902) stated that, Kilimanjaro region success in education vault of heaven is made possible by the donor who funded school teaching materials alike mathematics books. Though Kilimanjaro region became the second after Dar-es-Salaam. some schools in Kilimanjaro including Kimala secondary school receive support from world food program, outside(a) fund for agriculture development and other organizations which all together helps to scat schools and most students even those who argon found among secondary schools in Kilimanjaro do not turn back home until they use evening metre for studies.Mwendapole (20094) Reported that, half of the students who attempted leaving certificate examination failed the Mathematics subject, as the minister for educational and vocation training announced publically through radio and television. The ministers report showed that most students performed sickly in Mathematics subject. This was the indication that in that location is lack of teaching and breeding facilities like Mathematics books, Mat hematics teaching aids like capital of the Philippines and others.According to Ahiakwo, M. J (1989295-6), A Crisis in the school of some countries is world caused by irrelevant curricula, in adequately trained teachers, lack of teaching materials much(prenominal) as Mathematics text books which are designed for use in teaching as whole or part of particular study course, reference books which are designed for use in teaching as whole or part of particular study course, reference books which oblige collected selective information. Wickliffe N.J (1997181) Said, drawings combine the features of twain picture and charts in that they represent something that is accepted and at the same time, do so in form of summary, drawings are symbolized summaries of the real earth and it is important to remember this, for symbolism is code and children want to be taught to reach such codes. This significance of objects is depicting the whole stake of lacking in English teaching in secondary schools in Tanzania. CHAPTER THREE 2. RESEARCH METHODOLOGYThe research design was used especially pamper section research design where the information for study was collected on time in which both question for students ad interview for the calculate of the school and academic matter were used. The researcher was able to access many people so that he made genuine interpretation and stimulus generalization to other subject by using this research design. Also the researcher was able to spend few hours to complete the whole process of put in data by using survey research. 3. 1. INTRODUCTIONThe researcher will use the questionnaires method which includes both open and closed questions and the observation method whereby he will visit Kilimanjaro secondary school. The targeted population will be considered 3. 2. standard SIZE TARGETED POPULATION For successful research in Kimala secondary school likewise the researcher decides to use the sample size of 50% from Kimala secondary school . Researcher intends to provide the questionnaires to 50% of the respondents The researcher will use both probability sampling and non probability sampling to collect information whereby each and every element will have equal chance of be selected.Probability sampling gives every member of the population equal opportunity of being included in the study. The researcher will use simple ergodic sampling because it has no complexities involved. 3. 3. DATA COLLECTION METHODS AND INSTRUMENTS The researcher decides to use questionnaire methods, and tangible observation in collecting information. A. QUESTIONNAIRE METHOD A Questionnaire consists of planned questions related to the topic in order to gather information required to accomplish the research work. 3. 4. DATA COLLECTIONThe researcher will use questionnaire to get information from the respondents. 3. 5. DATA ANALYSIS AND PRESENTATION This study is aimed at analyzing the factors and reasons causing poor academic performance of for m four students mathematics examinations. Researcher will use tables, pie charts, columns, bars and line charts to analyze and interpret the data he will obtain. BIBLIOGRAPHY Ahiakwo, M. J (1989).
