Problem Solving: A Contextualized Approach to Teaching Mathematics

Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Research & Method in Education (IOSRJRME) - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 5

Abstract

The process of creating the Problem Solving Methodology has been shown to be long and full of deviations. For some time, there has been talk about its applicability, however, in those cases where it was performed, the results regarding mathematical learning were not satisfactory. In its complexity, when analyzing the main reasons that cancel the use of this methodology, it opens a gap in its study, because, as a consequence of its implementation, a considerable level of failure is observed in the cases applied. The present study proposes a discussion of the Problem-Solving Methodology about its historical context, its teacher training, its application in the school context, attitudes that do not generate results, highlighting those that exceed positive expectations, thus allowing a systematic analysis of the problem by understanding what is shaping the school curriculum in the process of teaching math learning.
