Students approach mathematical problem solving in fundamentally different ways, particularly problems requiring conceptual understanding and complicated strategies such as mathematical word problems. The main objective of this study is to compare students' performance with different cognitive styles (Field-dependent vs. Field-independent) on mathematics problem solving, particularly, in word problems. A sample of 180 school girls (13-years-old) were tested on the Witkin's cognitive style (Group Embedded Figures Test) and two mathematics exams. Results obtained support the hypothesis that students with field-independent cognitive style achieved much better results than Field-dependent ones in word problems. The implications of these results on teaching and setting problems emphasizes that word problems and cognitive predictor variables (Field-dependent/Field- independent) could be challenging and rather distinctive factors on the part of school learners.

This paper shows how the social tradition and belief of korea on education affects teachers and students and learning. 1 Interview with teacher. During surveying this teacher's class, we knowed that the teacher have accentuated algorism loaming and preparation fur external examination in math class. Teacher's beliefs about mathematics have a strong effect on the method of class and the performance of problem solving 2. Interview with students and short test. 1) Students usually had fine ability of calculation for number. But Many pupils didn't know the meaning of the operations. 2) The most of pupils are good at routine math problem solving but when the question whose the condition don't meet was given, they experienced difficulties.3.Korean sociocultural specialty on education: The korean place high emphasis on education and think of education as the means of success. This emphasis can be traced to the Confucian view. 1) tradition on examination culture. 2) the traditional convention of the learning method. Korean sociocultural specialty on education play role of strengthen role learning and algorism class. The important things to education reformation are getting a balance between practice and understanding. we should make changes not only in national dimension but also in math class.

The team orienteering problem (TOP) or the multiple tour maximum collection problem can be considered as a generic model that can be applied to a number of challenging applications in logistics, tourism, and other fields. This problem is generally defined as the problem of determining P paths, in which the traveling time of each path is limited by $T_{max}$ that maximizes the total collected score. In the TOP, a set of N vertices i is given, each with a score $S_i$. The starting point (vertex 1) and the end point (vertex N) of all paths are fixed. The time $t_{ij}$ needed to travel from vertex i to j is known for all vertices. Some exact and heuristics approaches had been proposed in the past for solving the TOP. This paper proposes a new solution methodology for solving the TOP using the particle swarm optimization, especially by proposing a solution representation and its decoding method. The performance of the proposed algorithm is then evaluated using several benchmark datasets for the TOP. The computational results show that the proposed algorithm using specific settings is capable of finding good solution for the corresponding TOP instance.

The purpose of this study is to: analyze the characteristics on ill-structured problem-solving process; examine the type of memories used in their monitoring. The data were primary collected from observation and secondary the semi-structured in-depth interviews based on analysis of observation results with two students who belong to science school and a guidance. The findings of this study revealed that the ill-structured problems possess multiple representations and the upper level's problem have several sub-problems. And multiple steps simultaneously exist in particular stage of problem-solving process that is not single sequential but complex flow and have high frequency of discussion step. Type of memories used in ill-structured problems include idiosyncratic memories which is related in personal histories such as school performance, problem-related memories, abstract rules and intuition.

QFD(Quality Function Deployment) is a very important tool to improve market share by reducing the gap between the voice of customer and the product's performance. But QFD is not a problem solving tool, although it is very useful in identifying what has to be solved or improved in order to meet the customer's desires. TRIZ has proved to be a very strong tool to solve the difficult problems that requires inventive thinking. QFD integrated with TRIZ becomes hot research recently. But merely linking between HOQ(House of Quality) in QFD and the contradiction matrix in TRIZ can not provide designers with a concrete method to solve the technical problem in the design process. Practically, the contradiction matrix and 40 inventive principles are not helpful for solving the technical problem. To solve the technical problem using TRIZ, a search for the tool and the object involved in the problem is made, from which the wanted result should be derived. A practical method to integrate QFD and TRIZ is proposed in this paper.

PISA의 두 번째 주기에 해당되는 PISA 2003에서는 문제해결 영역에 대한 평가가 새로이 도입되었다. PISA 2003 본검사 문제해결 영역에서는 (1) 의사결정, (2) 체제 분석 및 설계, (3) 문제점 해결 등의 세 가지 문제해결 유형에 따라 학생들의 범교과적 문제해결 능력을 평가하였다. 본 논문에서는 PISA 2003 본검사에 포함된 문제해결 영역문항들에 대한 우리나라 학생들의 정답률을 살펴보고, 문제해결 문항들 중 개방형 서술형 문항에 대한 학생들의 답안을 상세하게 분석하였다. 분석 결과에 따르면, 우리나라 학생들은 그림이나 그래프로 표상하는 과제에 취약하며, 긴 문장으로 제시된 지문 해석에서 어려움을 겪은 것으로 보인다. 또한, 우리 나라 학생들에게는 다소 낯선 맥락이나 소재를 활용한 과제의 경우 낮은 정답률을 기록하였다. PISA 2003 문제해결 영역을 분석한 결과가 과학교육에 주는 시사점도 논의하였다.

The IPSAP which is a finite element analysis program has been developed for high parallel performance computing. This program consists of various analysis modules - stress, vibration and thermal analysis module, etc. The M orthogonal block Lanczos algorithm with shiftinvert transformation is used for solving eigenvalue problems in the vibration module. And the multifrontal algorithm which is one of the most efficient direct linear equation solvers is applied to factorization and triangular system solving phases in this block Lanczos iteration routine. In this study, the performance enhancement procedures of the IPSAP are composed of the following stages: 1) communication volume minimization of the factorization phase by modifying parallel matrix subroutines. 2) idling time minimization in triangular system solving phase by partial inverse of the frontal matrix and the LCM (least common multiple) concept.

From the assumption that an individual's working memory capacity is limited, the cognitive load theory is concerned with providing adequate instructional design so as to avoid overloading the learner's working memory. Based on the cognitive load theory, this study aimed to provide implications for effective problem-based collaborative teaching and learning design by analyzing the level of middle school students' cognitive load which is perceived according to the problem types(short answer type, narrative type, project) in the process of collaborative problem solving in middle school function part. To do this, this study analyzed whether there is a relevant difference in the level of cognitive load for the problem type according to the math achievement level and gender in the process of cooperative problem solving. As a result, there was a relevant difference in the task burden and task difficulty perceived according to the types of problems in both first and second graders in middle schools students. and there was no significant difference in the cognitive effort. In addition, the efficacy of task performance differed between first and second graders. The significance of this study is as follows: in the process of collaborative problem solving learning, which is most frequently used in school classrooms, it examined students' cognitive load according to problem types in various aspects of grade, achievement level, and gender.
