An Investigation of U.S. and Chinese Students' Mathematical Problem Posing and Problem Solving.
Cai, Jinfa
Mathematics Education Research Journal, v10 n1 p37-50 Apr 1998
Explores the mathematical problem posing and problem solving of U.S. (N=181) and Chinese (N=223) sixth-grade students. Reports that while Chinese students outperform U.S. students on computational tasks, there are many similarities and differences between U.S. and Chinese students in performing relatively novel tasks. Discusses the direct link between mathematical problem posing and problem solving. Contains 24 references. (Author/ASK)
