Problem Solving Strategies in Mathematics of Students in the of Primary Level: Basis for Strategic Study Guide

Yuan Zhou

Abstract


Mathematical problem solving ability refers to the thinking ability and problem solving ability that students show in solving mathematical problems, which is a very important ability in mathematics learning. However, because traditional mathematics teaching focuses on teaching basic concepts and algorithms and neglects the cultivation of students' problem-solving skills, many students are unable to begin to apply what they have learned to real-life problems. The Chinese government attaches great importance to the cultivation of students' mathematical ability in the educational reform for students. As China's society continues to develop and progress, we are paying more and more attention to how students use their knowledge to solve problems and how students can improve their problem-solving skills at the primary and secondary school levels.
