Problem Solving In Two Dimensions
G.F. Paskusz · 2020
Incoming freshmen are notoriously deficient in problem solving skills.In our freshman problem solving course we are primarily concerned with enhancing students' skills in solving word problems, problems which yield to logical analysis, and finally problems requiring a good deal of imagination for their solution.An excellent collection of word problems requiring only algebra in their solution can be found in Mildred Johnson's " How to Solve Word Problems in Algebra".The second type of problem, those requiring logical analysis for their solution, is easily obtained from a plethora of books on puzzles.
