A Beginning Teacher's View of Problem Solving.
Cooney, Thomas J.
Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, v16 n5 p324-36 Nov 1985
Investigated a beginning mathematics teacher's beliefs about problem-solving while finishing preservice training and how these beliefs affected, and were affected by, the first three months of teaching. Analyses revealed conflicts between the teacher's idealism and the reality of classroom practice, as students were not always receptive to problem-solving teaching strategies. (Author/JN)
