Abstract

The main concern of this study was to determine the influence of code-switching on the mathematical understanding of the high school students. A quantitative non-experimental design utilizing correlational technique was used. A total of 248 grade 8 students belonging to the randomly selected students of all Public Secondary Schools of New Bataan District, Compostela Valley Division, Philippines were taken as a sample. The study was conducted with the use of validated researcher’s made survey- questionnaire and researcher’s made test. The statistical treatment like mean and Pearson-r had given the result that there was no significant relationship between the extent of utilization of code-switching and mathematical understanding of high school students. Then, the utilization of code-switching did not significantly influence the mathematical understanding of high school students. This study provide essential inputs to the teachers, and school administrators to do some intervention, plans and strategies to improve mathematical understanding.
