| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study was to clarify the factors to make learners apply the rules taught in their school to problem solving from the viewpoint of "knowledge operation". The main results were as follows.ⅰ) Even the rule that junior high students and university students have learned in their elementary school days, they might not apply the rule to problem solving. The cause is because "knowledge operation" is insufficient. ⅱ) The extrapolation that is one of the "knowledge operation" promotes the application of the already known rule to problem solving. ⅲ) The rule taught by abstract expression like symbol type formulas restrains "knowledge operation". ⅳ) Because the relation of a rule and an example is uncertain for learners, a rule with generality does not perform its function. ⅴ) When rules like formulas about a relation of three variables are operated, it becomes easy to apply the formula concerned to problem solving by visualizing the relation.
