Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effects of the Problem Centered Instruction(PCI) and the Explanatory Instruction(El). Two classes of third grade children(69 children) were sampled from an elementary school in Chung-Buk and given a treatment. The results of this study as follows: (1) There was no significant difference between the PCI group and the El group. This means that the PCI doesn't decrease the computational ability, even though the ordinary calculation methods are not taught in the PCI group. (2) The PCI group got scores significantly higher than the El group on application problems. It may be interpreted that the PCI is more effective than the El in problem solving.
