Abstract
This paper’s primary goal is to investigate how Contextual Education can enhancing understanding of Linear Programming. This study was entirely qualitative in nature with 15 participants. The author argues that ccontextual education techniques enhance students’ comprehension of concepts in linear programming. Students generally find linear programming difficult, especially because it is abstract and necessitates sophisticated mathematical reasoning. It seeks to close the knowledge by placing learning in realistic, real-world contexts, which promotes greater comprehension and involvement. Interviews, and group discussions were applied to learn more about how students grasp linear programming ideas, in secondary schools. Thematic analysis of the data was done with an emphasis on the conceptual clarity, problem-solving abilities, and engagement levels of the students. According to the study, it not only enhances comprehension but also boosts students’ motivation and interest, underscoring the significance of interactive and student-centered approaches in complicated mathematics topics. The study concludes by highlight the potential teaching approaches, particularly for improving comprehension of abstract ideas like linear programming. In addition to suggesting additional research to evaluate Contextual Teaching and Learning’s long-term effects on students’ mathematical competency, the study ends with suggestions for incorporating it into linear programming programs to promote deeper learning.
