Learning Activity
Problem solving is a mathematical process, in which it is regarded both as a
method of teaching mathematics and the goal of learning mathematics. Problems in
mathematics can be categorized into routine and non- routine. Routine problem
solving concerns solving problems that are useful for daily living. They are mostly in
the form of exercises. It can be solved using at least any of the four arithmetic
operations.
Non-Routine problems are word problems that we do not usually encounter.
These are problems that have multiple solutions but do not have automatic solution
on how to go about it. Solving non-routine problems would require us to think
analytically based on the problem and to use our cognitive by using the critical and
creative thinking skills.
There are different ways in solving Non-Routine problems, such as guess and
check, acting-it-out, make a systematic list, identifying a pattern, draw a diagram/
picture, make a table or chart, write an equation, working backwards, etc.
