A Close Look at Student Problem Solving and the Teaching of Mathematics: Predicaments and Possibilities.

Peer reviewed

Brady, Richard R. – School Science and Mathematics, 1991

Student problem-solving behaviors are analyzed using a four-dimensional framework with related detrimental factors identified for each dimension. General approaches and specific techniques developed to address negative factors are reviewed. Examined are means of developing the components of problem-solving teaching. (KR)

Enhancing the Teaching of Mathematical Problem Solving.

Peer reviewed

Taback, Stanley F. – School Science and Mathematics, 1992

Describes three components of a seminar in mathematical problem solving for preservice mathematics teachers: (1) a cognitive component that accents particular phases of problem solving; (2) an affective component that allows for observation of skillful problem solvers; and (3) an investigative component that provides for independent study and…
