The quality of mathematical problems - how we evaluate it

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The quality of a mathematical problem is impossible to be measured in an objective way. Only subjective opinions on problem quality can be gathered and compared. The article is a part of wider research on the problem posing process. Four categories of problem posers are compared in terms of their opinions on problem quality. (Experts are very experienced problem posers - e.g. authors of problems for mathematical competitions, Specialists are participants - mostly teachers - posing problems for their ownclasses only, Novices are participants who have just experienced their first problem posing. High school students serve as a sample of respondents not usually posing own problems.) Written essays by the participants were processed in a three-level coding (based on grounded theory approaches). The problem quality is viewed differently by the four groups. Experts are mainly interested in mathematical features of the problem. Specialists stress the effect of a problem on a pupil and practi
