Primary Problem Solving in Math
Author: Jack Coffland
Publisher: Good Year Books
ISBN: 1596473118
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 200
Book Description
Develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills in young children through these easy-to-use activities that build skills progressively. The first three chapters address non-routine creative problems, real-life situational problems, and algorithmic problems. Chapter 4 provides transitional activities to help kids better understand numbers, mathematical operations, and how these relate to actual experiences. Chapter 5 focuses on information gathering and processing - practicing the reading skills and math vocabulary necessary to identify and organize information in mathematical problems. Grades K-3. Illustrated. Good Year Books. 190 pages.

Mathematical Problem Solving
Author: ALAN H. SCHOENFELD
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 1483295486
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 426
Book Description
This book is addressed to people with research interests in the nature of mathematical thinking at any level, topeople with an interest in "higher-order thinking skills" in any domain, and to all mathematics teachers. The focal point of the book is a framework for the analysis of complex problem-solving behavior. That framework is presented in Part One, which consists of Chapters 1 through 5. It describes four qualitatively different aspects of complex intellectual activity: cognitive resources, the body of facts and procedures at one's disposal; heuristics, "rules of thumb" for making progress in difficult situations; control, having to do with the efficiency with which individuals utilize the knowledge at their disposal; and belief systems, one's perspectives regarding the nature of a discipline and how one goes about working in it. Part Two of the book, consisting of Chapters 6 through 10, presents a series of empirical studies that flesh out the analytical framework. These studies document the ways that competent problem solvers make the most of the knowledge at their disposal. They include observations of students, indicating some typical roadblocks to success. Data taken from students before and after a series of intensive problem-solving courses document the kinds of learning that can result from carefully designed instruction. Finally, observations made in typical high school classrooms serve to indicate some of the sources of students' (often counterproductive) mathematical behavior.

Powerful Problem Solving
Author: Max Ray
Publisher: Heinemann Educational Books
ISBN: 9780325050904
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
How can we break the cycle of frustrated students who "drop out of math" because the procedures just don't make sense to them? Or who memorize the procedures for the test but don't really understand the mathematics? Max Ray-Riek and his colleagues at the Math Forum @ Drexel University say "problem solved," by offering their collective wisdom about how students become proficient problem solvers, through the lens of the CCSS for Mathematical Practices. They unpack the process of problem solving in fresh new ways and turn the Practices into activities that teachers can use to foster habits of mind required by the Common Core: communicating ideas and listening to the reflections of others estimating and reasoning to see the "big picture" of a problem organizing information to promote problem solving using modeling and representations to visualize abstract concepts reflecting on, revising, justifying, and extending the work. Powerful Problem Solving shows what's possible when students become active doers rather than passive consumers of mathematics. Max argues that the process of sense-making truly begins when we create questioning, curious classrooms full of students' own thoughts and ideas. By asking "What do you notice? What do you wonder?" we give students opportunities to see problems in big-picture ways, and discover multiple strategies for tackling a problem. Self-confidence, reflective skills, and engagement soar, and students discover that the goal is not to be "over and done," but to realize the many different ways to approach problems. Read a sample chapter.
