Problem solving and intelligence are connected each other. Every student has their own different intelligence. Intelligence affect students’ problem solving strategy. This research aimed at describing the strategy of geometry open-ended problem solving of visual-spatial and logical-mathematical student. This research includes as descriptive research with qualitative approach. The research subjects consists of two students which are one student with visual-spatial and one student with logical-mathematical intelligence. The result shows that student of visual-spatial can understand and solve the problem, however lack to pay attention to the word description, while student of logical-mathematical can solve the problem with attend all of the information as well. In solving problem, student of visual-spatial and logical-mathematical can connect the given information to gain new information, which is that strategy called as logical reasoning strategy. Then, student of visual-spatial and logical-mathematical use the known formula to gain new equation, which is called as write an equation strategy. At the last solution, student of visual-spatial disposed to use table which is called as draw a picture or model strategy. While student of logical-mathematical disposed to do try and error to get the solution, which is called guess and check strategy.Keywords: strategy of problem solving, geometry open-ended problem, visual-spatial intelligence, logical-mathematical intelligence

The students need a learning strategy that is compatible to develop electrical circuit problems completion. Additionally, problem-solving strategy (epistemic game) will develop a learning process that can stimulate the completion of physics. This case encourages the researcher to determine the epistemic game of moderate physics-capable students in solving electrical circuit problems. Moreover, it is qualitative research, and the participant of the research is the students who learn the electrical circuit. Moderate physics-capable students (4 moderately capable students out of 13 students) based on their physics understanding test results. Test and interview were used by the researcher to collect data. The test consists of a physics understanding test and an electrical circuit test. The physics understanding test is used to determine the level of students’ physics understanding, while the electrical circuit test is used to determine students’ epistemic games to solve the problems. The research finding showed the epistemic game of moderate physics-capable students was obtained from the analysis result of the electrical circuit test and interview. The analysis result of the first test, the second test, the third test, and the seventh test showed that the game used to solve problems was transliteration to mathematics. Meanwhile, the students used mapping mathematics to meaning and transliteration to mathematics to solve the problems in the fourth test. The analysis result of the fifth test and the eight test showed that the students used mapping mathematics to meaning to solve the problems. Furthermore, the sixth test was completed by mapping meaning to mathematics.

The purpose of this research to analyze profile students’ problem solving skill and the implementation of assisted guided inquiry at senior high school. The type of research is used the preliminary research method with data collection techniques such as tests and questionnaires. The data are obtained, analyzed descriptively qualitatively. The results of this study show that only a few students can work on the material using problem-solving strategies (A-Assessing the problem (identifying principles to be used in problem-solving), C-create a drawing (translating words in the form of pictures containing about problem-solving instructions), C-conceptualize strategy (outlining the steps that will be used in solving the problem), E-executing the solution (applying the formula to solve the problem by the steps) and finally S-scrutinize the result (giving a level of confidence and give a reason) in solving dynamic electricity problems. Totally of the students, five students had low problem-solving skills, and 25 students who had moderate problem-solving skills. Totally of the students, five students had low problem-solving skills, and 25 students who had moderate problem-solving skills. The lowest problem-solving strategy value is at point S (scrutinize the result). Implementation of learning models provided is not ideal so that it causes students to be less active so that problem-solving skills are lacking and no laboratory supports the learning process. Students are not introduced to the existence of a virtual laboratory (PhET) as a laboratory replacement. So to improve students' problem-solving skills required appropriate learning methods.

School instruction about and daily practice with proportions problems were contrasted with respect to their influences upon students' and construction foremen's performance in a series of problems on scale drawings, which seem to entail the formal operational scheme of proportionality. Foremen's perfomance was more accurate than students' but a greater proportion of students used a generalizable problem-solving strategy of finding and working with a simplified ratio (l/x or x/l). The school-taught proportions algorithm (x/a = b/c) had no significant impact upon students' problem-solving strategies. Students' performance revealed a strong ability to deal with the rule-based aspects of the mathematics in the problem but their ability to deal with meaning was weak; in contrast, job experience seems to enrich measurement with meaning. These differences can be traced to the contexts in which problem solving had been practiced and are suggestive of an educational implication: schools have overlooked the importance of meaning in mathematics, a practice which makes students' performance appear lower than their reasoning skills would lead one to expect.

Many secondary students with specific learning disabilities (SLD) struggle with mathematics problem solving. When students with SLD are taught to use effective problem-solving strategies, their ability to solve mathematics word problems improves. The purpose of this article is to provide a guide for secondary teachers to implement self-regulated strategy development (SRSD) to teach mathematics problem-solving strategies to secondary students with SLD. The specific problem-solving strategy described in this article is SOLVE, which stands for Study the problem, Organize the facts, Line up a plan, Verify your plan with action, and Evaluate your results. Both SRSD and SOLVE are described, and an example of one teacher’s application of SRSD is shared. When taught concurrently, SRSD and SOLVE can be useful tools to help students with disabilities overcome the challenges of problem-solving in mathematics.
