Two groups participated: an experimental group exposed to the AlgebraWalk and a control group was taught using traditional paper-and-pencil activities. A researcher-made, validated achievement testand a motivation questionnaire were administered before and after the intervention. Data were analyzed using descriptivestatistics, paired samples t-test, independent samples t-test, ANCOVA, and thematic analysis for qualitative responses. Resultsrevealed that while both groups improved significantly, the experimental group demonstrated higher posttest scores (M = 28.18,SD = 5.35) and gain scores (M = 14.25, SD = 5.72) compared with the control group (M = 22.46, SD = 5.42; gain score M =8.61). Motivation findings showed higher ratings in intrinsic motivation, self-regulation, utility value, and test anxiety for theexperimental group. ANCOVA confirmed a significant effect of the intervention on achievement after controlling for pretestscores. These results indicate that the Algebra Walk is an effective strategy in enhancing both achievement and motivation inalgebra. Downloads Download PDF How to Cite Jullie Anne C.
