Abstract
The research was conducted to examine the impact of the TouchMath multisensory program on mathematics computational skills of primary two pupils in some schools in the Uyo Local Government Area. This was done by formulating three research questions and three null hypotheses to inform the study. The study was conducted using a quasi-experimental design. The researchers sampled 120 students of six intact classes. The study employed a simple random sampling method to get a representative sample. The data collection instrument was Mathematical Computational Skills Achievement Test” (MCSAT). The tool was confirmed by professionals in the field. The internal consistency of the Mathematical Computational Skills Achievement Test” (MCSAT, α = .81) was determined using Kuder Richardson Formula 20. Research questions were answered using the mean and the standard deviation and ANCOVA were employed in testing the hypotheses with the 0.05 level of significance. The findings showed that there was a significant difference in the counting and multiplication skills of pupils when they were taught using TouchMath Multisensory Program and that there was no significant difference in the counting and multiplication achievement skills of pupils when taught by using TouchMath Multisensory Program as a result of gender in the Uyo Local Government Area. It was suggested among others that teachers should be advised to use TouchMath Multisensory Program when imparting mathematical computational skills in lower basic education.
