DO YOUR STUDENTS LIKE MATHEmatics? Are they confident in their ability to do mathematics? All too often, we focus on ensuring that students develop mathematical content knowledge, paying little attention to such affective issues as students' attitudes toward mathematics and their beliefs about their abilities to do mathematics. Yet instruction affects students' attitudes toward, and beliefs about, mathematics; likewise students' attitudes influence mathematics instruction (McLeod 1992; Reyes 1980). Students should learn to value mathematics and become confident in their ability to do mathematics (NCTM 1989).
