Option 3 : Rote Memorisation
Problem-solving strategy is very important in mathematics, Students must learn to question and apply mathematical concepts to problem-solving situations regularly. So it shouldn't be neglected.
Steps in problem-solving
- understanding the question
- selecting a strategy
- applying the strategy
- checking our answer
Strategies used in problem-solving
- Trial and error
- Divergent thinking
- Analysis of question
- Graphic representation
- Solving backwards
-
Trial & Error
This method involves solving the problem many times in many ways until we get the correct answer. Graphical Representation This method is often used in mathematics to solve problems of "Data Handling". Solving backwards Solving backwards is to start with the final solution and work back one step at a time to get to the beginning.
Rote learning is defined as the memorisation of information based on repetition even if students don't understand the concept. In mathematics, this is considered a poor technique of learning and avoided.
Hence rote memorisation is not a problem-solving strategy in mathematics.
