Problem Analysis in Math: Using the 5-Step Problem-Solving Approach
The goal of problem analysis is to determine the significance of a problem and to develop a hypothesis about why a problem has occurred. The information gathered during the problem analysis stage is then used to inform the third step of the 5-step problem-solving approach: plan development. References
