Word Problem Solving in Contemporary Math Education: A Plea for Reading Comprehension Skills Training
Successfully solving mathematical word problems requires both mental representation skills and reading comprehension skills. In Realistic Math Education (RME), however, students primarily learn to apply the first of these skills (i.e., representational skills) in the context of word problem solving. Given this, it seems legitimate to assume that students from a RME curriculum experience difficu...
متن کاملComprehension and computation in Bayesian problem solving
Humans have long been characterized as poor probabilistic reasoners when presented with explicit numerical information. Bayesian word problems provide a well-known example of this, where even highly educated and cognitively skilled individuals fail to adhere to mathematical norms. It is widely agreed that natural frequencies can facilitate Bayesian inferences relative to normalized formats (e.g...
متن کاملText Integration and Mathematical Connections: A Computer Model of Arithmetic Word Problem Solving
Understanding arithmetic word problems involves a complex interaction of text comprehension and mathematical processes. This article presents a computer simulation designed to capture the working memory demands required in “bottomup” comprehension of arithmetic word problems. The simulation’s sentence-level parser and text integration component reflect the importance of processing the problem f...
متن کاملApproach to Word Problem Solving in Students with Specific Learning Disorders: A Review Study
Background and Objective: Today, different teaching approaches have been offered to solve word problems. Schema-based instruction is one of these new approaches. This study aimed to identify and determine the nature, stages, research evidence, and effectiveness of schema-based instruction on resolving students’ word problems. Materials and Methods: This is a review study. Studies and resources...
متن کاملComprehension skill and word-to-text integration processes
We examine comprehension skill differences in the processes of word-to-text integration, the connection of the meaning of a word, as it is read, to a representation of the text. We review two ‘on-line’ integration studies using event related potentials (ERPs) to provide fine-grain temporal data on the word-to-text processes of adult readers. The studies demonstrate indicators for word-to-text i...
