dc.description.abstractThe study assessed the impact of evaluation methods on students' attitude and performance in mathematics. The research design was quasi-experimental (Pretest/ Posttest control group method) The population for the study were Senior Secondary School in Lagos Metropolis. Two stage sampling technique as weUasproportionate stratifiedsampling procedure was used to select 540 participants based on their classtypes acrossfour schools (treatment group)and forty-five(45) from one school for the control group. Four research instruments was used, they are (Diagnostics;Formative; Summative) Mathematics Achievement Tests. (DMAT, FMAT& SMA 7J and Mathematics Attitude Scale (MAS) by Obe (2002). Cronbachsreliabilitycoefficient for the three mathematics tests, which were 0.629 (Diagnostics), 0.769 (Formative)and 0.502 (Summative) respectively and the Spearman Brown reliability coefficient for the MAS was 0.555. Three hypotheses were formulated to guide the study and tested at 0.05 level of significance. The empirical research findings revealed that class types and evaluation test types exerts significant impact on students' academic performance across the experimental groups while there is no significantimpact exerted on theirperformance by theirattitude to study between the experimental groups and the controlgroup among others. Based on the findings,it was therefore recommended among others, that teachers/educators should create feedback mechanism to students' after any of the three evaluation test types .such will help reveal to the students' their area of weaknesses .boost and maintain an increasing trend of scores. Also, the 'study will help enlightened the Nigeria governments to organize educative programmes for teachers to equip them with require skills and teaching methods that would make the content of their teaching easy and simple for students to understand for sustainable development.en_US
