Abstract

Mathematical problem solving is one of the most important skills that students need to develop in order to be successful in their academic and professional lives. Mathematical problem solving engenders a variety of cognitive, metacognitive, affective, and emotional processes, which can be beneficial for the development of learners’ skills and abilities.

In the realm of a digital pedagogy, process modeling by computer system designers to create intelligent tutorial systems can improve mathematical problem-solving skills. This study consists in visualizing the solving processes implemented by a sample of middle school students, analyzing them to deduce the interactions between the different problem data, the long-term memory (the memorization data) and the short-term memory (the transformation data).

We present in this article a methodological and analytical approach allowing to verbalize, to visualize the networks of mathematical problem solving and to represent them schematically. Furthermore, we provide a modeling framework for these networks. By visualizing the problem-solving processes and their underlying cognitive mechanisms, educators and researchers can gain insights into students’ problem-solving strategies, identify potential challenges, and design effective interventions.
