Abstract:
Based on the study of mathematic problems created by Clements in 1970 and 1983 in Penang, it was found that students in Malaysia do not have a problem of serious thought. However, the real problem is related to read, understand and make the right transformation when solving mathematical problems, especially those involving mathematical word problem solving. Communication is one of the important elements in the process of solving problems that occur in the teaching and learning of mathematics. Students have the opportunities to engage in mathematic communication such as reading, writing and lis

Triggers are conceived as instances of noticing, where an impulse draws a poser’s attention and “triggers off” a mathematical re-action, one of the outcomes of which is a creation of a problem that gets accepted to some mathematics competition. The data were collected from 26 problem posers residing in nine countries, and who had experience in creating problems for national, regional, and international competitions.

Abstract:
In his discussion about the source of good mathematics problems, Kilpatrick asserts, “one person cannot give a problem to another person” (1987, p. 124). Outside the context of mathematics, two conditions are necessary for me to believe that I have a problem—having an unfulfilled need and finding no obvious way of fulfilling that need. I cannot be given a problem. I cannot even have a problem in the sense that I have control over it. Rather, my problems hold me—they make me captive. I suggest that the richness of classroom mathematical activity might be measured by the extent to which students

Mathematics is not a “handbag of tricks” but rather a discipline of inquiry and creativity, as Nabb (2010-11) notes, and he has shared his methods and excitement for the inquiry approach. By engaging calculus students in a search for examples of infinite series that meet certain conditions, or arguments that such series do not exist, Nabb appropriately aligns his teaching with the Standards for Mathematical Practice found in the Common Core State Standards (CCSSI 2010). In particular, three Standards for Mathematical Practice come to mind: (a) “make sense of problems and persevere in solving t

Abstract:
In suggesting plans of action for the reform of mathematics education in North America, NCTM reports have focused strongly on the need to improve problem-solving skills and the need to “do” mathematics. Most recently, these goals have been reiterated and clarified in Curriculum and Evaluation Standards for School Mathematics (NCTM 1989). In discussing the impact of Standard 1: Mathematics as Problem Solving on students in grades 9-12, the report notes that students should be able to “apply the process of mathematical modeling to real-world problem situations” (p. 137).

Problem-solving and mathematical connections are two important things in learning mathematics, namely as the goal of learning mathematics. However, it is unfortunate that the ability of students 'mathematical connections is very low so that it impacts on students' failure in solving mathematical problems. The writing of this paper aims to discuss the understanding of mathematical problems, mathematical problem solving, mathematical connections, and how they play a role in solving mathematical problems.
