Assessment of mathematics teaching units in the 7th and 8th grades of basic education: how effective are they in meeting SENAFOR (National Training Service) expectations

Abstract

The aim of this research is to take stock of the state of mathematics teaching units and to discover the impact of the
SENAFOR (National Service of Training) service in the field, particularly in the educational province of Mont-Amba Pool
Lemba II. For the present study, we have opted for the functionalist method, which has enabled us to analyze the key role
played by the basic unit in the schools to operate the pedagogical units that play a driving role in the in-service training of
teachers, who in turn ensure the quality of teaching, particularly in mathematics, in the schools of the Mont-Amba educational
province in the Lemba II educational pool. Our research shows that the SENAFOR service is not effective in the field
according to the pedagogical objectives assigned in its SENAFOR departmental decree n°DPS (CCE) 001/022/84 of March
17, 1984, particularly in the field of mathematics.
