The NCTM Principles andStandards state that problem solving should be integrated throughout all courses and grade levels. For example, guess-and-check is a natural strategy to apply in algebra. Advanced math students often use finite differences to study functions and sequences. And drawing a diagram and using physical representations are commonly employed strategies in many contexts. However, many students never encounter valuable strategies such as matrix logic or unit analysis. And in content-crowded math classes, few students get the concentrated practice or time necessary to fully develop their problem-solving skills. By taking a semester course in problem solving, students can master a multitude of strategies while developing confidence in their problem-solving abilities. Your students will be better prepared to meet the challenges of school and life by taking this course.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Key Curriculum Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44946999410741,"sku":"ByrdShop_1559533714","price":35.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781559533713_5e13119d-c648-459a-b03e-0f56ce745228.jpg?v=1778925610","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/problem-solving-strategies-crossing-the-river-with-dogs-and-other-mathematical-adventures-instructors-resource-book-answer-key-9781559533713","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
