The Problem-Solving Environment and Students' Problem-Solving Orientation.

Neumann, Yoram; Finaly, Edith

Journal of Research and Development in Education, v22 n2 p22-29 Win 1989

Three basic orientations to problem solving are defined and related to four profiles of problem environment. The contingency between problem-solving orientations and problem environment is presented by means of three formal models that are translated to fit the students' learning environment. Implications for further studies are discussed. (JD)
