4. Linear nature of that model do not promote
the spirit of Polys stage and his goal of
teaching student to think. Why?
They depicts problem solving as linear process.
They present problem solving as series of step.
They imply that solving Mathematics problem is
a procedure to be memorized , practiced and
habituated.
They lead to an emphasis on answer getting.

1.) Domain Specific
Knowledge One must develop a base of mathematics knowledge in
order to become a good problem solver in mathematics.
Kantowski: those students with a good knowledge basewere most able to use the heuristics (information or
strategies that we can adopt to solve unfamiliar problems) ingeometry instruction.
Schoenfeid and Herrmann: novices attended to surface
f eatures of problems whereas experts categorizedproblems on the basis of the fundamental principles
involved.
Silver: successful problem solvers were more likely tocategorize math problems on the basis of their underlying
similarities in mathematical structure.
8/7/2019 Mathematical Problem Solving Latest

Example: convert all expressions of
trigonometric identities to functions
of sine and cosine and do algebraic simplification.

2.) Algorithms
Is a procedure, applicable to a particular type
of exercise, which, if followed correctly, is
guaranteed to give the answer to theexercise.
Problem solving is the process of creating an
algorithm and generalizing it to a specific
set of applications.
8/7/2019 Mathematical Problem Solving Latest
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/mathematical-problem-solving-latest 23/77
Example: Find the minimum or
maximum point of quadratic
equations;
Question.
f(x) = 3x2 + 6x + 1
8/7/2019 Mathematical Problem Solving Latest
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/mathematical-problem-solving-latest 24/77
Solutionby using Completing the Square
method
f(x)= 3x2
+ 6x + 1= 3[x2 + 2x + 1/3]
= 3[x2 + 2x + (2/2)2 (2/2)2 + 1/3]
= 3[x2 + 2x + (1)2 (1)2 + 1/3]
= 3[(x + 1)2
1 + 1/3]= 3[(x + 1)2 2/3]
= 3(x + 1)2 2
x + 1 = 0 y = -2x = -1
Therefore, the value for minimum quadratic equation is (-1,-2)

3.) Heuristics
Are kinds of information, available to students inmaking decisions during problem solving, that areaids to the generation of a solution, plausible innature rather than prescriptive, seldom providing
infallible guidance, and variable in results. Synonyms terms with strategies and techniques.
Examples; simplify an algebraic expression byremoving parentheses, make a table, restate the
problem in your own words, and
draw a figure tosuggest the line of argument for a proof.

Examples of Heuristics.
Guess-and-check -> Useful for solving simple problems and
together with as systematic listings, this strategy helps to
narrow down to the correct guess in the shortest time
possible.
Make a list -> Commonly used with 'Look for patterns'
strategy as it accounts for all possibilities systematically. It
organises, presents or generates information in a systematic
manner. Look for patterns -> As it involves active search from a
sequence of figures or numbers, information can be
expressed/viewed in an organised manner.
8/7/2019 Mathematical Problem Solving Latest
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/mathematical-problem-solving-latest 30/77
Draw a model -> Suits pupils who need to see to
understand and it translates words or information into
pictorial representations.
Work backwards -> Useful when the final result has already
been given.
Simplify the problem -> Separates the problem into sub-problems to be solved individually or in sequence.
Before-after concept -> Compare information to find the
unknown as it lists information given before and after the action.

4.) Managing It All
Knowledge base of domain specificinformation, algorithms, and a repertoire of
heuristics are not sufficient during problem
solving. The students must construct some decision
mechanism to select from among the available
heuristics, or to develop new ones.
8/7/2019 Mathematical Problem Solving Latest
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/mathematical-problem-solving-latest 35/77
Metacognition..
Long ago, Dewey emphasized self-ref lection inthe solving of problems; metacognition.
Metacognition is Ones knowledge concerning
ones own cognitive processes and products oranything related to them Flavell (1976).
Metacognition theory holds that such thoughtcan monitor, direct, and control ones own
cognition.

5.) Looking Back
Looking back is the set of activities that provides theprimary opportunity for tudents to learn from theproblem.
The phase was identified by Polya with admonitionsto examine the solution by such activities aschecking the result, checking the argument,
deriving the result diff erently, using the result orthe method for some other problem,
reinterpreting the problem, interpreting the result,
or stating a new problem to solve.

6) Problem Posing
Is a t o ol for developing and strengthening
critical thinking skills. It is an inductive
questioning process that structures dialogue in
the classroom (Sarah Nixon-Ponder).
Involves the generation of new problem about
the situation or the reformulation of a givenproblem (English, 1997; Silver and Cai, 1996)
8/7/2019 Mathematical Problem Solving Latest
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/mathematical-problem-solving-latest 38/77
From the definitions of problem posing, we know thatproblem posing is the strategy that encourages the
generation of new problems by changing theconditions of a current problem.
For example, given the Pythagorean Theorem where a2
+ b2 = c2. After a discussion of the attributes, the teachermay ask what if a2 + b2 < c2? Through this discussion,
the students will generate the new problems.

Summary of Problem Solving
as A Process
Question 1 in TASK 4:-
In isosceles triangle ABC, AB=AC and the attitude to BC is 20. if the perimeter
of the triangle is 80, find the area of the
triangle.
8/7/2019 Mathematical Problem Solving Latest
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/mathematical-problem-solving-latest 40/77
ProblemSolving as A Proc ess
1.) Domain specific knowledge: know the shape of isosceles triangle and the feature of the shape.
2.) Algorithms: know the procedure or concept to find the
length of both unknown sides; Pythagorean Theorem
3.) Heuristics: draw the diagram of isosceles.
4.) Managing it all: monitor and ref lect whether the way of calculation is logic or not.
5.) Looking back: check the result/answer by using other
methods.6.) Problem posing: ask self , what happen if a2 + b2 < c2 instead
of a2 + b2 = c2? Then, try to discuss with other people for
better understanding the concept.

4 Stages of Problem Solvingis
called A Processi) Understand and explore the problem (domain specific
knowledge and know the algorithm/procedure that can
be use)
ii) Find a strategy (know the heuristic/technique that can
be use)
iii) Use the strategy to solve the problem (apply the
suitable heuristic and managing it all)
iv) Look back and ref lect on solution (looking back the
solution and pose the problem/think inversely about
the result)

Conclusion
As a pre-service teacher, we should emphasize the students to involve in problem solving.
Problem solving increase students critical and
creative thinking.
We should not emphasize on exam-oriented only but
develop our students critical and creative thinking.
Mathematics teacher who must create the context for
problem solving to f lourish and for students to
become problem solvers.
Mathematical problem solving is very significant to
our life.
