Improving students' performance in geometry: an empirical evidence of the effectiveness of brainstorming learning strategy
These findings show the potential of brainstorming as a powerful tool for improving students' performance in geometry with equitable effectiveness among male and female secondary students. Thus, we recommended that educators should integrate brainstorming into their mathematics classrooms as a proxy to close performance gaps among male and female students in mathematics and improve students' performance in mathematics. As this study was conducted in two public secondary schools in Kaduna State, Nigeria, we acknowledge that the findings are context-specific and may not be generalizable without caution.
