Problem Posing and Problem Solving in Mathematics Education: International Research and Practice Trends
by Tin Lam Toh Manuel Santos-Trigo Puay Huat Chua Nor Azura Abdullah Dan ZhangThis book presents both theoretical and empirical contributions from a global perspective on problem solving and posing (PS/PP) and their application, in relation to the teaching and learning of mathematics in schools. The chapters are derived from selected presentations in the PS/PP Topical Study Group in ICME14. Although mathematical problem posing is a much younger field of inquiry in mathematics education, this topic has grown rapidly. The mathematics curriculum frameworks in many parts of the world have incorporated problem posing as an instructional focus, building on problem solving as its foundation. The juxtaposition of problem solving and problem posing in mathematics presented in this book addresses the needs of the mathematics education research and practice communities at the present day. In particular, this book aims to address the three key points: to present an overview of research and development regarding students’ mathematical problem solving and posing; to discuss new trends and developments in research and practice on these topics; and to provide insight into the future trends of mathematical problem solving and posing.
Problem-solving 3-4
by Hyacinth Dorleon Karen Morrison Rodney JulienWe live in an increasingly technological and information-rich world. Education is focusingmore on enquiry and skills-based approaches. Students, even at the early levels ofschooling, are expected to develop a range of skills, including problem solving skills.Creative thinking, using information appropriately and problem solving are important for students in the school curriculum and in daily life. This book will help students learn how to apply mathematical skills in different contexts and explain how they got to their solutions.This book is easy for parents and teachers to use, and teaches multiple strategies forsolving problems, using challenging but supportive contexts. The approach is underpinnedby the Five E's approach to learning.The course will help student to:· Engage with problems meaningfully· Explore different options for approaching and solving problems· Explain how they are thinking· Elaborate on their working and processes and see connections between different areasof mathematics· Evaluate what worked and what didn't, learning from mistakes as well as successes

Problem-solving K-2
by Hyacinth Dorleon Karen Morrison Rodney JulienWe live in an increasingly technological and information-rich world. Education is focusing more on enquiry and skills-based approaches. Students, even at the early levels of schooling, are expected to develop a range of skills, including problem solving skills. Creative thinking and problem solving are not only important elements in the curriculum but they are also crucial in daily life. Students need to learn basic mathematical skills, but they also have to be able to apply these in unfamiliar contexts, communicate their thinking and explain how they got to their solutions. This book is easy for parents and teachers to use, and teaches multiple strategies for solving problems, using challenging but supportive contexts. The approach is underpinned by the Five E's approach to learning. The course will help student to: · Engage with problems meaningfully · Explore different options for approaching and solving problems· Explain how they are thinking· Elaborate on their working and processes and see connections between different areas of mathematics· Evaluate what worked and what didn't, learning from mistakes as well as successes.
Proceedings of The Focus Conference (Advances in Social Science, Education and Humanities Research #732)
by Manyane Makua Mariam Akinlolu Mashango Sithole Phiwayinkosi Gumede Cebo NyondoThis is an open access book.It is a common cause globally that the abrupt emergence of Covid-19 wreaked havoc in all sectors, including the higher education system. The sudden closure of campuses as a social distancing measure to prevent community transmission has shifted face-to-face classes to online teaching and learning, a transformative experiment for academics and students in most institutions. This has thrown the focus on utilising Learning Management Systems (LMS), eLearning tools and platforms for effective student engagement, which may have limitations of accessibility and affordability for many students. The pandemic has exposed the shortcomings of the current higher education system and the need for more training of academics and practitioners in digital technology to adapt to the rapidly changing educational climate. In the post-pandemic situation, eLearning and virtual education may become an integral part of the higher education system, hence the question of re-inventing higher education. The higher education institutions and universities need to plan the post-pandemic education and research strategies to ensure student learning outcomes and standards of educational quality. With the move to online teaching and learning, subsequently, traditional assessments followed and were adapted and adopted for online assessment. Assessments lie at the heart of the teaching process. It shapes students’ understanding of the curriculum and determines their ability to progress. Reflections on assessments during Covid-19 abounded with the challenges that both academics and students faced regarding online assessments, including cheating and quality assurance issues. The focus on quality extended to the quality of teaching and learning in general. Moreover, the pandemic brought about the question of staff and student health and psychosocial support also became important. For academics, the abrupt shift to adapt to working from home and implementing online learning has led to over-work, low work-life balance and compromised mental health. With a view on constructive and futuristic discourse, the sub-themes of the 2022 Focus conference encapsulate the current realities in the higher education sector and beyond. It further provides opportunities for an in-depth analysis based on the benefit of hindsight and foresight. The Organising Committee specifically coined the theme, Re-inventing higher education: Insights, trends and lessons learnt from, specifically for the conference to reflect on and address the matters mentioned earlier. Academics, scholars, and practitioners in the higher education sector are called upon to share their research and express their perspectives on the reinvention of higher education.

Professionalitätsentwicklung angehender Lehrkräfte: Eine Analyse am Beispiel sachunterrichtlicher Planungskompetenz im Praxissemester
by Alexander KirschFachbezogene Planungskompetenzen bilden einen wesentlichen Bestandteil der Professionalität von Lehrkräften und sind im Rahmen institutionalisierter Lerngelegenheiten der Lehrerbildung wie dem seit 2015 in Nordrhein-Westfalen durchgeführten Praxissemester auszubilden. Die tatsächliche Wirksamkeit derartiger Langzeitpraktika ist professionstheoretisch jedoch umstritten. Die Arbeit untersucht die spezifische Wirkung des Praxissemesters auf die Entwicklung von Planungskompetenzen bei angehenden Lehrkräften im Fach Sachunterricht. Zu diesem Zweck werden die Entwicklungen eines Kompetenzstrukturmodells als Referenzrahmen für Wirksamkeitsaussagen sowie eines Rasch-skalierten Messinstrumentes zur standardisierten und validen Erfassung der interessierenden Kompetenz beschrieben. Die dargestellten Ergebnisse einer umfassenden Pilotierungsstudie belegen die generelle Eignung des entwickelten Instrumentes, das im Rahmen eines quasi-experimentellen Forschungsdesigns anschließend für eine Prä-Post-Untersuchung bei Studierenden an der Universität Paderborn eingesetzt wurde. Die berichteten Ergebnisse dieser Studie deuten darauf hin, dass das Praxissemester entgegen der damit verbundenen Intention keine signifikant positiven Effekte auf die Entwicklung der interessierenden Kompetenz hat.
