Mathematical Problem Solving

The program was designed to set up to organize, structure, and discuss the academic agenda of mathematical problem solving and its developments. The program included an open invitation to the mathematics education community to contribute and reflect on research and practicing issues that involve: (a) Addressing the origin, characterization, and foundation of mathematical problem solving, (b) discussing problem solving frameworks used to support research and curricula reforms in mathematical problem solving; (c) analyzing local and international research programs in mathematical problem solving; (d) discussing curriculum proposals that support the development of mathematical problem solving; (e) analyzing different ways to assess mathematical problem solving performances; (f) discussing the role played by the use of different digital tools in students’ development of mathematical problem solving proficiency; (g) addressing programs that foster learners’ development of problem solving approaches beyond school; and (h) identifying future developments of the field.
