Effectiveness of using circle geometry board strategy in learning circle geometry towards form four students' performance (IR)

This study aims to determine the effectiveness of Circle Geometry Board (CG-Board) strategy in learning Circle Geometry towards Form Four students’ performance. This study also examined students’ Van Hiele’s level of Geometric Thought. The pre-test and post-test non-equ...
