IDEAL Problem Solving dalam Pembelajaran Matematika
Abstract: Most educators agree
that problem solving is among the most meaningful and importantkinds of learning
and thingking. That is, the central focus of learning and instructionshould be
learning to solve problems. There are several warrants supporting that
claims.They are authenticity, relevance, problem solving engages deeper
learning angtherefore enhances meaning making, and constructed to represent
problems (problemsolving) is more meaningful. It is the reason why we must
provide teaching and learningto make student’s problem solving skill in
progress. There are many informationprocessingmodels of problem solving, such
as simplified model of the problem-solvingprocess by Gicks, Polya’s problem
solving process etc. One of them is IDEAL problemsolving. Each letter of IDEAL
is stand for an aspect of thinking that is important forproblem solving. IDEAL
is identify problem, Define Goal, Explore possible strategies,Anticipate outcme
and Act, and Look back and learn. Using peer interaction andquestion prompt in
small group in IDEAL problem solving teaching and Learning canimprove problem
solving skill.
