    (Lead City University, Ibadan, 2024-12) Stephen Sunday AWOTOYE
    Over the years, pupils' performance in external examinations such as National Common Entrance Examination (NCEE), State Common Entrance Examinations (SCEE) and other entrance examinations into secondary schools, is still very low and below expectation. This study investigates Effect of Case-Based and Team-Based Teaching Strategies on Word Problems in Primary School Mathematics in Ibadan North-West Local Government Area, Oyo State. Three hypotheses were formulated and tested at 0.05 level of significance. Quasi-experimental design was used. Multi-stage sampling procedure was adopted where three private primary schools from 11 wards in Ibadan North-West Local Government Area, Oyo State were stratified and purposively selected. A sample size of 86 pupils comprises each of 43 boys and 43 girls were involved in the study. Primary four intact classes were used in each of the three selected private primary schools. Instruments used for data collection were Primary Mathematics Word Problems Achievement Test (KR-20 = 0.86), and teaching instructional guides. Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) was used for data analysis. There was a significant main effects of Case-based Teaching Strategy on Achievement of Primary School Pupils in Mathematics[F(1,51)=58.624, P < 0.05, η 2= 0.535] and Team-based Teaching Strategy on Achievement of Primary School Pupils in Mathematics word problems [F(1,55)=45.008, P < 0.05, η 2= 0.450]. From the findings, it is concluded that Case-based teaching strategy, Team-based teaching strategy and combined Case-based, Team-based and Traditional Teaching Strategies were effective in teaching word problems in primary school Mathematics. Base on the results, it is recommended that both Case-based and Team- based teaching strategies should be adopted by the teachers in teaching word problems in Primary school Mathematics to enhance pupils’ academic achievement.
