Abstract

In this current era, the world is facing environmental challenges where the future communities are losing interest in science subjects such as chemistry. There are many factors that contributed to students’ success. One of the factors is the students’ attitude in learning. The result of this study revealed that majority of the urban students have positive attitude towards learning chemistry when they conduct chemistry experiments in the laboratory. Students also show positive attitude towards teachers’ teaching style. Result also revealed that most students have negative attitude towards chemistry because they lack interest in the subject and the syllabus itself.
