The cops model for collaborative problem-solving in mathematics
1. Introduction. Mathematics is best learned through the construction of knowledge in the learner's own context (Cobb Citation 1994), and problem-solving is an important educational tool in allowing this to occur (J. W. Wilson, Fernandez, and Hadaway Citation 1993).While 'problem-solving' has been used through the years to mean a variety of things, including a misrepresentation as drill ...
Using Mathematical Modeling to Get Real With Students
To solve a word problem, students can pick out the numbers and decide on an operation.". But through the use of mathematical modeling, students are plucked out of the hypothetical realm and plunged into the complexities of reality—presented with opportunities to help solve real-world problems with many variables by generating questions ...
Problem Solving in Mathematics Education
Singer et al. ( 2013) provides a broad view about problem posing that links problem posing experiences to general mathematics education; to the development of abilities, attitudes and creativity; and also to its interrelation with problem solving, and studies on when and how problem-solving sessions should take place.

The rapidly advancing fields of machine learning and mathematical modeling, greatly enhanced by the recent growth in artificial intelligence, are the focus of this special issue. This issue compiles extensively revised and improved versions of the top papers from the workshop on Mathematical Modeling and Problem Solving at PDPTA'23, the 29th International Conference on Parallel and Distributed ...
Teaching Mathematics Through Problem Solving
Teaching about problem solving begins with suggested strategies to solve a problem. For example, "draw a picture," "make a table," etc. You may see posters in teachers' classrooms of the "Problem Solving Method" such as: 1) Read the problem, 2) Devise a plan, 3) Solve the problem, and 4) Check your work. There is little or no ...
Problem solving in the mathematics curriculum: From domain‐general
PROBLEM-SOLVING STRATEGIES AND TACTICS. While the importance of prior mathematics content knowledge for problem solving is well established (e.g. Sweller, 1988), how students can be taught to draw on this knowledge effectively, and mobilize it in novel contexts, remains unclear (e.g. Polya, 1957; Schoenfeld, 2013).Without access to teaching techniques that do this, students' mathematical ...
The Problem-Solving Process in a Mathematics Classroom
Polya's (1957) four-step process has provided a model for the teaching and assessing. problem solving in mathematics classrooms: understanding the problem, devising a plan, carrying out the plan, and looking back. Other educators have adapted these steps, but the. essence of these adaptations is very similar to what Polya initially developed.

Problem Solving and Mathematical Modelling
Section 9.4 deals with alternate approaches to problem solving. Different types of models play an important role in solving problems and this is discussed in Section 9.5. One particular model—a mathematical model is—important in solving a range of problems from different disciplines. This is the focus of Section 9.6.

Problem Solving and Mathematical Modeling
Mathematics provides a rich source of tools for problem solving and it would be advisable to use such tried and tested methods. However, mathematics can only be applied to mathematical problems and mathematical modeling is a way of formulating a given problem in a mathematical form. These problem-solving phases are depicted in Fig. 2.2.

To our knowledge, this is the first work that offers a model of artificial intelligence for the SCC, in particular a recurrent neural network (RNN) with long short-term memory (LSTM) cells that are executed in the cloud. We formulated the mathematical model and implemented a LSTM to approximately solve the problem.
