Problem Solving Strategies: Crossing the River with Dogs

Build Problem-Solving Skills The NCTM Principles and Standards for School Mathematics state that problem solving should be integrated throughout all courses and grade levels. However, many students never encounter valuable strategies such as matrix logic or unit analysis. And in content-crowded mathematics classes, few students get the practice necessary to fully develop problem-solving skills. By taking a semester course in problem solving, students can master a multitude of strategies while developing confidence in their problem-solving abilities. The Instructors Resource Book and Answer Key includes everything you need to successfully launch this course at your school.
