Summary: | This study investigated the role mathematics trails have in influencing students’ attitude toward mathematics and in enhancing their appreciation of mathematics. The sample for the study came from a class of 42 students in a Primary 6 EM1 stream. The development of the trail spanned a period of 6 months. The students were guided in the development of the trail where necessary. The final trail consisted of 10 stations that were located around the school. |
