Assigning problems online and its impact on pupils' choice of solving strategy
Popis výsledku v původním jazyce
The paper focuses on mathematics problem solving with special attention on assigning problems using a web link. It is one of the outcomes of a large research project focusing on the impact of solving problems using heuristic strategies on development of pupils' creative approach to learning mathematics and to problem solving. Unfortunately, pupils are often given little chance to be creative when solving problems. Moreover, their will to use of creative such strategies is influenced by their mathematical knowledge and other factors. Offering pupils suitable environments for working in a more creative way when solving problems helps them in situations when they do not find a solving algorithm in their repertoire of knowledge and have to look for suitable heuristic strategies for the solution. The main goal of the paper is to show if and how assigning a problem using a web influences pupils' choice of solving strategies. To be more specific the research question is the following: What impact does assignment of a problem through a web link have on the pupils' solving procedure, i.e. what happens when pupils solve the problem on their own outside of school and can use any tools? The importance of this question is underlined by the fact that problem solving is the basis for successful mathematics education. Any use of technological devices is appropriate when it brings benefit, opens new possibilities or considerably supports the solver's creativity and independence. The results of the experiment are illustrated by examples from pupils' work.
