Problem solving skills are something essential to achieve success in various activities in everyday life. To train students’ intellectual to have them problem solving skills, the students are given the opportunity to explain the answer with its own language. Beside that they should be given the opportunity to behave as an expert and should be given the emphasis on qualitative issues as well. One of forms in training problem solving skills is by problem solving tasks. The results of research showed that the level of student mastery of problem solving tasks is good category, while the average level of student mastery of math concepts is medium category. Large contribution from the mastery of problem solving tasks of mastering math concepts at 82.9%. This shows that the mastery of problem solving tasks can contribute to student mastery of math concepts. Based on the coefficient of determination can be stated that the level of mastery of problem solving tasks can be used as a reference in predicting students' mastery of math concepts.

The Way

Mathematics is or it should be about problem solving and math thinking. However, what mathematics students learn in schools is more about procedures for solving different types of math exercises and problems. In many cases, students learn by heart algorithms and words (math concepts) and use them for solving different math tasks. School math is very far from what mathematicians do and, in many cases, doesn’t motivate students for learning math. This paper presents the way we organized the assessment of the students’ skills developed through math research workshops and some of the assessment results. Even though we didn’t assess all the competences the students develop through the math research workshop, the findings show that the students certainly develop their problem-solving skills.

Purpose Research has shown that the problem-solving skills of adults with a vocational education and training (VET) background in technology-rich environments (TREs) are often inadequate. However, some adults with a VET background do have sound problem-solving skills. The present study aims to provide insight into the socio-demographic, work-related and everyday life factors that are associated with a strong problem-solving performance. Design/methodology/approach The study builds on large-scale data of the Programme for the International Assessment of Adult Competencies (PIAAC) and gives insight into VET adults (N = 12,929) with strong problem-solving skills in 11 European countries. Findings This study introduces new knowledge with respect to the socio-demographic, work-related and everyday life background factors that contribute to successful VET adults’ problem-solving skills. The findings of the authors illustrate that a continuous process of development including non-formal and informal activity, as well as learning taking place at work, is associated with strong performance in problem-solving skills in TRE. Research limitations/implications An important implication of this study is that this paper introduces novel knowledge for VET adults’ competences and can be used to support the development of VET adults’ problem-solving skills in TREs. Originality/value The study was conducted to explore new understanding about good problem-solvers in TREs with a VET background. The originality of the study derives from its focus on good problem-solvers in TREs related to a VET background. The findings can be used to create novel ways to enhance the development of VET adults’ problem-solving skills in TREs.

Problem Solving Skills

Problem solving must be developed and internalized in mathematics<br />learning, so students have problem solving skills that students can<br />transfer to their daily lives when facing problems or difficulties.<br />There is a mental attitude that affects a person's success to become a<br />successful problem solver, namely adversity quotient. This mental<br />attitude affects the mindset and emotions so it is not easy to give up<br />in solving problems. This study aims to measure the relationship<br />between adversity quotient and problem solving abilities of junior<br />high school students in mathematics learning. This research is a<br />correlation study. The population was students of SMPN 1 Padang<br />Panjang 2014/2015 academic year, while 32 samples were selected<br />by purposive sampling. The data was collected using an adversity<br />quotient scale and a mathematical problem solving ability test. Data<br />were analyzed by regression correlation techniques. The results of<br />data analysis showed a correlation coefficient between adversity<br />quotient variables with mathematical problem solving abilities of r =<br />0.756&gt; rtable (0.297), meaning that there was a significant positive<br />relationship between adversity quotient and mathematical problem<br />solving abilities. The coefficient of determination obtained is r2 =<br />0.572 indicating that adversity quotient has an effect of 57.2% on<br />mathematical problem solving abilities of junior high school<br />students, while 42.8% is influenced by other factors

<p>Mechanics is a challenging topic not only for the students majoring in physics but also for those who are not majoring in physics. This study aims to discover the correlation between students’ conceptual understanding and problem-solving skills experienced by students who major in natural science. The analysis was conducted after the course had been delivered using the hybrid-learning method. Students’ conceptual understanding was measured using 13 multiple-choice questions while their problem-solving skill was measured using 3 essay questions. The normality, the linearity, and the correlation of the data were analyzed. The data is normally distributed with the average score of students’ conceptual understanding was 83 and the average score of students’ problem-solving skills was 48. The linearity test shows that there is a significant linear correlation between students’ conceptual understanding and problem-solving skills. However, the Pearson Correlation test result shows that there is no significant positive correlation between the two variables with the coefficient of determination was only 15.4%.</p>

This research compares the effect of problem-solving and stress management skills by two methods, tradition and workshop, in reducing tendency to addiction on male studentsin the academic years 91–92. The research population included all male students in the College of literature, Science and humanities in Arak University, in which, 30 students were selected by available sampling method. The students were placed in two groups with random selection. The first group were trained by the traditional method of problem-solving and stress management skills, and the second group were trained each skills with workshop method. Statistical analysis of the data demonstrated that training problem solving and stress management skills using both traditional and workshop method have been effective in reducing the tendency to addiction. Providing training on the problem-solving and stress management skills can enable individuals behave effectively, and thus, as a coping strategy, prevent them from tendency to addiction.   Keywords: Problem-solving skills, traditional training methods, tendency to addiction.
