AN INVESTIGATION OF THE INFLUENCE OF MOTIVATION ON STUDENTS’ PERFORMANCE IN ECONOMICS AMONG SECONDARY SCHOOLS STUDENTS IN KATSINA METROPOLIS.
Abstract
The goal of education is the total development of the individual as enshrined in the national policy on education. One of the means of measuring this educational performance of the student is indicated by the outcome of assessment of such a student. Over the years in Nigeria, it has been observed that the level of academic performance of our secondary school students has been on the decline especially in the public secondary schools. This observation affects the realization of the goal of education as stated in the National Policy on Education. A lot of factors may be responsible for this which may include student factors like motivation, learning environment. The extent to which these factors are managed by teachers and other professionals in the field of education, will determine the extent to which the purpose of education is realized in the life of students of public secondary schools.
