How to solve the problem. Poisa D.

How to solve a mathematical problem? Learn the formulas? Build a sequence of calculations? Find a similar example? Or maybe there is already a solution - it remains only to find it?

the manual for teachers “How to solve the problem” of the famous American mathematician D. Poisa offers a universal methodology for teaching problems. It is based on the development of heuristic thinking skills in students. It is creative activity that forms mathematical independence when working with any tasks.

Theoretical material consists of three parts: work on the task in the classroom, constructing and implementing the plan for solving it and a short heuristic dictionary. As an instrument, the author offers a phased scheme of the student’s answers to the teacher’s leading questions.

The manual will be useful to both teachers and tutors and parents engaged with children on their own.
