Contextualized Problem Solving in Primary School Students| Stephy Publishers

 



Abstract

The objective of the present study was to explore and describe the influence of a proposal that returns to Problem Based Learning for the application arithmetic principles in the solution of problems in sixth grade students of primary education. Eighty-six of sixth grade students participated with an average age of 11.0 years. The intervention strategy was carried out in nine sessions lasting approximately one hour each. The results in general, do not show statistically significant differences in the performance of the execution in the resolution of problems between pre-test and post-test conditions, however, it was observed through the students' report that they had experienced knowledge acquisition based on the content of the intervention.

Keywords: Problem solving, Problem based learning, Arithmetic, Primary school

Introduction
Mathematical knowledge is a skill that is present from a very early age,1-3 develops according to chronological age and with school learning Berch4 defines mathematical knowledge as a set of skills such as awareness, intuition, recognitions, knowledge, experience, ability, desire, sensation, explanation, processing, conceptual structure and mental schemes of the number and its applications. Within the educational context the pedagogical implications are on the development of mathematical skills are much more complex than intuition to quantitative elements;4,5 In other words, it must be a way of thinking that involves and connects all aspects of mathematics teaching and learning, putting into practice different constructivist strategies that involve paradigms related to the theoretical conception and the empirical findings reported so far4 giving meaning and functionality to the knowledge that students will learn, an example of this is the resolution of contextualized arithmetic problems.

 Resilience, Risk-Taking Behavior and Aggression among Female Volleyball Players – a Preliminary Study The aim of the current study is to investigate the level of risk-taking behavior, resilience and aggression in female volleyball players and the link between these psychological variables and coach’s performance ranking. A Romanian volleyball team ranked 7th out of 11 in the A1 league in the national championship (2022-2023 period) participated at the study. The Romanian adaptation of the Brief Resilience Scale, The Romanian adaptation of Makarowski’s Stimulating and Instrumental Risk Questionnaire, The Romanian adaptation of Makarowski's Aggression Questionnaire and Delphi method (evaluation of female volleyball players by coaches) were used. Analysis of the results reveals that athletes have a low level of perseverance (Go-Ahead factor), a low level of Foul play and a moderate to low level of assertiveness. Also, most athletes registered average or even low levels of resilience

 Chemo stratigraphic Profile of a Reservoir in Well “X” of Field “Y” Offshore Southern Gabon - Stephy Publishers In a bid to evaluate the elemental and mineralogical content of reservoir samples from the “X” well in the “Y” oil field offshore Southern Gabon, analyses were performed using XRD and XRF. The log view profile of the result inferred that Na, Mg, and Calcite were absent in the shallower series of the reservoir sandstones studied, this observation implies that they are soluble ions that had eroded and refer to warm and humid paleoclimate and a depositional environment that is arid, which corresponds to the continental crust as their source. The plot of Ti and FeO+Mg discriminate the deeper series of the reservoir sandstone samples from the shallower samples. The lower series showed heavier values which implies their origin from Oceanic Crust. These are also the pre-salt facies while the shallower series were more of continental origin and represent the post-salt facies. https:
