An Evaluation of a Process-Oriented Instructional Program in Mathematical Problem Solving in Grades 5 and 7.
Charles, Randall I.; Lester, Frank K., Jr.
Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, v15 n1 p15-34 Jan 1984
An evaluation of a problem-solving program was conducted with 46 fifth- and seventh-grade teachers. Classes using the program scored significantly higher than control classes on measures of ability to understand problems, plan solution strategies, and get correct results. Different growth patterns and attitude changes were also noted. (MNS)
