Abstract EN

This research was conducted to determine the factors impacting students’ achievement in mathematics as perceived by mathematics practicum students at Al-Aqsa University in Gaza.

It also aimed at identifying the significance of differences between the degrees of approval of the factors affecting achievement in mathematics according to students’ gender, education level, cumulative average and their interaction.

A survey of seven major areas comprising 44 items was administered to a population sample of 134 students.

Findings revealed that the factors impacting students’ achievement are in the following descending order: level of mathematical culture, students’ beliefs about mathematics, students’ characteristics, family characteristics, instructors’ academic and pedagogical competences, university environment and awareness of mathematics nature and development.

Further, results showed no statistically significant differences in the degree of students’ approval of the stated factors that could be attributed to any of the study variables; namely: gender, education level, cumulative average and interaction between them.
