As we enter the era of technology, it is more important than ever that our students learn how to successfully resolve a problem situation. This book is designed to help you, the elementary school teacherwhether you are a novice or experiencedto teach problem solving. Ever since mathematics has been considered a school subject, the teaching of problem solving has been an enigma to mathematics teachers at all levels, whose frustrating efforts to teach students to become better problem solvers seem to have had little effect. The teaching of problem solving must begin when the child first enters school. Even the youngest of children face problems daily. This book combines suggestions for the teaching of problem solving with activities and carefully discussed non-routine problems which your students will find interesting as they gain valuable experience in problem solving. The activities and problems have been gleaned from a variety of sources and have been classroom- tested by practicing teachers. We believe that this is the first time such an expansive set of problems has appeared in a single resource, specifically designed for the elementary school. Problem solving is now considered to be a basic skill of mathematics education. However, we suggest that it is more than a single skill; rather, it is a group of discrete skills. Thus, in the chapter on pedagogy, the subskills of problem solving are vii S Preface enumerated and then integrated intoa teachable process. The chapter is highlighted by a flowchart that guides students through this vital process. Although thereare many publications that deal with the problem-solving process,we believe that this is the first one that focuses on these subskills. We are confident that this book willprove to be a valuable asset in your efforts to teach problem solving. S.K. and J.R. viii 9 CHAPTER ONE An Introduction to Problem Solving 1 0 Chapter One WHAT IS A PROBLEM? A major difficulty in discussing problem solvingseems to be a lack of any clear-cut agreementas to what co'.istitutes a "problem." A problem is a situation, quantitativeor otherwise, that confronts an individual or group of individuals, thatrequires resolution, and for which the individual seesno apparent path to obtaining the solution. The key to this definition is the phrase"no apparent path." As children purse: their mathematical training,what were problems at an early age become exercises andare eventually reduced to mere questions. We distinguish between these threecommonly used terms as follows: (a) question: a situation thatcan be resolved by recall from memory. (b) exercise: a situation that involvesdrill and practice to re- inforce a previously learned skillor algorithm. (c) problem:a situation that requires thought and a synthesis of previously learned knowledge to resolve. In addition, a problem must be perceivedas such by the stu- dent, regardless of the reason, in orderto be considered a problem by him or her. If the student refusesto accept the challenge, then at that time it is not a problem for that student. Thus,a problem must satisfy the following three criteria, illustratedin Figure 1-1: 1. Acceptance: The individual accepts theproblem. There is a personal involvement, whichmay be due to any of a variety of reasons, including internal motivation,external motiva- tion (peer, parent, and/or teacher pressure),or simply the desire to experience the enjoyment ofsolving a problem. 2. Blockage:The individual's initial attempts at solutionare fruitless. His or her habitualresponses and patterns of attack do not work. 3. Exploration: The personal involvementidentified in (1) forces the individual to explorenew methods of attack. L O C K Acceptance Blockage Exploration Figure 1-1 2 11 An Introduction to Problem Solving The existence of a problem implies that the individual is con- fronted by something he or she does not recognize, and to which he or she cannot merely apply a model. A situation will no longer be considered a problem once it can be easily solved by algorithms that have been previously learned. A word about textbook problems Although most mathematics textbooks contain sections labeled "word problems," many of these "problems" should not really be considered as problems. In many cases, a model solution has already been presented in class by the teacher. The student merely applies this model to the series of similar exercises in order to solve them. Essentially the student is practicing an algorithm, a technique that applies to a single class of "problems" and that guarantees success if mechanical errors are avoided. Few of these so-called problems require higher-order thought by the students. Yet the first time a student sees these "word problems" they could be problems to him or her, if presented in a non-algorithmic fashion. In many cases, the very placement of these exercises prevents them from being real problems, since they either follow an algorithmic development de- signed specifically for their solution, or are headed by such state- ments as "Word Problems: Practice in Division by 4." We consider these word problems to be "exercises" or "routine problems." This is not to say that we advocate removing them from the textbook. They do serve a purpose, and for this purpose they should be retained. They provide exposure to problem situations, practice in the use of the algorithm, and drill in the associated math- ematical processes. However, a teacher should not think that stu- dents who have been solving these exercises through use of a carefully developed model or algorithm have been exposed to prob- lem solving. WHAT IS PROBLEM SOLVING? Problem solving is a process. It is the means by which an individual uses previously acquired knowledge, skills, and understanding to satisfy the demands of an unfamiliar situation. The process begins with the initial confrontation and concludes when an answer has been obtained and considered with regard to the initial conditions. The student must synthesize what he or she has learned, and apply it to the new and different situation. 3 Chapter One Some educators assume that expertise in problemsolving de- velops incidentally as one solvesmany problems. While this may be true in part, we feel that problem solvingmust be considered as a distinct body of knowledge and theprocess should be taught as such. The goal of school mathematicscan be divided into several parts, two of which are (1) attaining information andfacts, and (2) acqu!ring the ability touse information and facts.

  • University Microfilms International 300 N, ZEEB RD
    INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1.Thc sign or "target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing pagc(s) or section, they arc spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed cither blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted you will find a target note listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo­ graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again-beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.

  • The Complete Stories
    The Complete Stories by Franz Kafka a.b.e-book v3.0 / Notes at the end Back Cover : "An important book, valuable in itself and absolutely fascinating. The stories are dreamlike, allegorical, symbolic, parabolic, grotesque, ritualistic, nasty, lucent, extremely personal, ghoulishly detached, exquisitely comic. numinous and prophetic." -- New York Times "The Complete Stories is an encyclopedia of our insecurities and our brave attempts to oppose them." -- Anatole Broyard Franz Kafka wrote continuously and furiously throughout his short and intensely lived life, but only allowed a fraction of his work to be published during his lifetime. Shortly before his death at the age of forty, he instructed Max Brod, his friend and literary executor, to burn all his remaining works of fiction. Fortunately, Brod disobeyed. Page 1 The Complete Stories brings together all of Kafka's stories, from the classic tales such as "The Metamorphosis," "In the Penal Colony" and "The Hunger Artist" to less-known, shorter pieces and fragments Brod released after Kafka's death; with the exception of his three novels, the whole of Kafka's narrative work is included in this volume. The remarkable depth and breadth of his brilliant and probing imagination become even more evident when these stories are seen as a whole. This edition also features a fascinating introduction by John Updike, a chronology of Kafka's life, and a selected bibliography of critical writings about Kafka.

Since 1884 the society has played a central role in developing political ideas and public policy on the left. It aims to promote greater equality of power and opportunity; the value of collective public action; a vibrant, tolerant and accountable democracy; citizenship, liberty and human rights; sustainable development; and multilateral international cooperation. Through a wide range of publications and events the society influences political and public thinking, but also provides a space for broad and open-minded debate, drawing on an unrivalled external network and its own expert research and analysis. Its programme offers a unique breadth, encompassing national conferences and expert seminars; periodicals, books, reports and digital communications; and commissioned and in-house research and comment. The Society is alone among think tanks in being a democratically-constituted membership organisation, with almost 7,000 members. Over time our membership has included many of the key thinkers on the British left and every Labour prime minister. Today we count over 200 parliamentarians in our number. The voluntary society includes 70 local societies, the Fabian Women’s Network and the Young Fabians, which is itself the leading organisation on the left for young people to debate and influence political ideas.
