Study On The Mistakes Of Pupils In Solving Practical Problems In Mathematics

Problems are the heart of math,and problem solving is an important part of math learning.The error in the process of solving the problem has become the main basis for educators to understand and help students.Through the classroom observation and analysis of homework during the educational practice,the research topic is determined.Through literature analysis,the research framework and problem are determined.Then select the object of study,research methods and tools.On the basis of the research of Curriculum Standards,textbooks,final papers,the test paper of Solving Practical Problems is compiled.On the basis of understanding the current situation of students’ problem solving,this paper analyzes the types of errors,and further reveals the causes of the errors.Based on the above findings,some teaching suggestions are put forward.This study mainly draws the following conclusions:First of all,according to the results of test paper,the current situation of students’ practical problem solving is analyzed according to the result distribution,score,unanswerable rate,wrong answer rate,error rate,and problem solving links.Secondly,Newman Error Analysis Framework is used to analyze the specific errors of students,and it is found that there are seven kinds of errors when students solve practical problems.Such as information understanding errors,information screening errors and so on.On this basis,the error types with the highest frequency in five practical problems are concluded.Thirdly,according to the performance of the problem solving and the results of the interview,the reasons for the students’ errors are summarized.As it turns out,different errors are caused by different reasons.Finally,combining with the study and teaching practice,the author attempts to put forward four teaching suggestions,so as to enriching the practical significance of this study.
