Research Abstract

When we give a task childrens to make problems, they make various problems if they had experiences to make problems from closed sentences or they have strong motivation to make problems. From experimental teaching, I knew they had hardly made problems from closed sentences. I think the reason of this act is their learning is mainly formed from teacher-oriented teaching and passive learning. I said them "Make problems as if you are a teache" but they didn't have a conscious to be a teacher. So I realize to need another motivation to make them problems.
So I use more definitive strategies of problemsolving for them to make problems. In a word, I said them to make problems from sentences without to be asked.
I know from teaching experiments, these problem making activity is unfamiliar for children and so they cannot make well problems. (So, I understand for children to develop problemsolving ability, I must further research.) But my result of this research, lower grade children cannot be concious of to be asked in problem sentenses. Extremely there are no to be asked, they answered as if there are complete problem sentenses. To be upper grade, children can understand problem structures.
I want to another research problems to continue this research. These are how to make problems for children to make problems with incomplete problem situations, and the relations of them to develop problem solving abilities.
