Open-Ended Mathematical Activities: How Can They Be Utilised to Improve Students' Application of Mathematical Understanding in Unfamiliar Contexts?
Daniel Rabbett
Australian Mathematics Education Journal, v5 n4 p18-21 2023
In this article, examples are shown to demonstrate how open-ended mathematical activities can be used in the classroom. Open-ended activities give students opportunities to apply their understanding in unfamiliar contexts without the pressure of finding one perfect solution.
