Fostering Mathematical Thinking through Multiple Solutions
Keyword(s):
The reform movement in school mathematics advocates communication as a necessary component for learning, doing, and understanding mathematics (Elliott and Kenney 1996). Communication in mathematics means that one is able not only to use its vocabulary, notation, and structure to express ideas and relationships but also to think and reason mathematically. In fact, communication is considered the means by which teachers and students can share the processes of learning, doing, and understanding mathematics. Students should express their thinking and problem-solving processes in both written and oral formats. The clarity and completeness of students' communication can indicate how well they understand the related mathematical concepts.
