Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate 5th graders' performance for mixed operational problem. For this purpose. two kinds of studies were conducted: a descriptive study by pencil and paper tests(32 problems) and a clinical study by interviews. The conclusions drawn from the results obtained in this study were as follows: First, students were highly scored in pencil and paper tests(M=85.25%). But that score is not up to scratch. Because the problem was composed of simple calculations and if students calculate problems from only let side, they gel 75% right answer, etc. Second, most of students solved mixed operational problems by text-based way, but some students solved flexibly. There are several error types. The main error type is students' following the wrong order of calculations. Some students have obstacles to express their thought with numerical expressions. So they make errors. Third, students solve mixed operational problems with various strategies. For examples, they solve problems by describing calculation procedures, drawing lines to indicate the order of calculations, carrying out two numerical expressions, etc.
