Mathematics teachers’ knowledge of indigenous games in teaching mathematics
Al-Jabar : Jurnal Pendidikan Matematika, 2022 We explored junior high school teachers' knowledge and the impact of indigenous games in teaching basic mathematical concepts. The researchers employed the qualitative phenomenological design to address the purpose, objectives and research questions. The accessible sampling was used to sample 70 teachers (65 males, 5 females) for phase one of the study.
