Abstract

This study determined the in-service junior high school mathematics teachers’ level of mathematical maturity in terms of expertise in knowledge of the subject matter. Validated questionnaires, interviews, and statistical tools were used to address the objectives. The results revealed that the respondents were found to have outstanding performance in Trigonometry, very satisfactory performance in Basic Math and Algebra, satisfactory performance in Geometry, and did not meet the expectation in Statistics. In addition, the teacher respondents have high confidence level in the use of general computer processes and telecommunications and average level of confidence in the use of other technologies in teaching and learning. In addition, a high confidence level in the use of general computer processes and telecommunications and an average level of confidence in the use of other technologies in teaching and learning were shown by the respondents. Given these findings, it is recommended that in-service mathematics teachers should have intensive trainings and seminars on Mathematics to improve their knowledge in the subject, and a special training on the use of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) to maximize its use in teaching and learning.
