The Relationship Between Students᾿ Attitudes Towards Problem-Solving and Their Achievements in Mathematics

Studien zur Schulpädagogik

Different learning theories have attributed great importance to problem solving, but the perception of what influences the problem solving and what problem solving is really about differed significantly between theories. From the conception that only the reproduction of learned procedures is important for problem solving, to concepts advocating that the acquired specific knowledge suffices, that problem solving strategy is crucial, that automated mental skills play an…

Learning Styles

A Critical Analysis of the Varied Approaches to Learning Preferences

Schriften zur Pädagogischen Theorie

The term learning style began to appear throughout the educational literature in the 1970s and, like with many comprehensive constructs, its precise definition, and the measurement thereof, remain a matter of somewhat convoluted disagreement. Various researchers have struggled to pinpoint both a comprehensive and functional definition of the construct of learning styles based on a cohesive theoretical framework. However, not only has the semantics of a definition…
