This research used a qualitative approach involving and grouping 25 mathematics students based on mathematical representations in understanding prediction problems. The data was analyzed using Polya's problem-solving steps. The results showed that the subjects, when understanding the problem, to make ...
Problem-solving requires practice. When deciding on methods or procedures to use to solve problems, the first thing you will do is look for clues, which is one of the most important skills in solving problems in mathematics. If you begin to solve problems by looking for clue words, you wil...
A review of middle grades mathematics textbooks identified nine commonly recommended steps to problem solving. Those same nine steps were supported in the literature of problem solving. Sixth and eighth grade students (n=302) solved 10 two-step, routine word problems using the step by step plan....
Mathematical problem solving has long been seen as an important aspect of mathematics, the teaching of mathematics, and the learning of mathematics. It has infused mathematics curricula around the world with calls for the teachingofproblem solving as well as the teaching of mathematicsthroughproblem s...
