| Summary: | The importance of values inculcation in mathematics teaching and learning cannot be over
emphasized. This is because values inculcation in mathematics teaching and learning
enables learners understanding of the essence of the school’s mathematics. As such, this
study investigates the direct and positive influence of mathematics teachers’ length of
service in relation to values inculcation. A sample of n=509 mathematics teachers was
drawn from the six states of the North Eastern Region of Nigeria. A self-constructed survey
instrument was used to gather the data of the study. The findings of the study revealed that
mathematics teachers’ length of service was not a moderating variable for effective values
inculcation in mathematics classroom. The study contributed in the realization of values
inculcation model for successful mathematical contents delivery. |
