Abstract

This study aims to investigate the implementation of a problem-solving approach and its corresponding impact on the creative thinking ability of prospective mathematics teachers. A qualitative case study approach was used in this study in the form of observations of learning and teaching processes for geometry topics through the use of a problem-solving approach and of a written test involving 20 prospective mathematics teachers, in one of the state universities in Bandung, Indonesia. The results showed that the implemented problem-solving approach influenced prospective mathematics teachers’ creative thinking in solving problems. The use of different strategies showed prospective teachers’ creative thinking ability in problem-solving processes. The effect of the problem-solving approach on prospective mathematics teachers can be investigated further to obtain a more comprehensive understanding of creative thinking ability.

Abstract

Problem-solving in school geometry is one of the indispensable abilities for prospective mathematics teachers as a provision for their future careers. This research aims to investigate learning and teaching processes on problem-solving in school geometry and its corresponding impact on prospective mathematics teachers’ abilities. To investigate this, we conducted a qualitative case study in the form of online classroom observations and their corresponding written assessment for the case of problem-solving in school geometry, involving 47 mathematics education students (20-21 years old) in one of the universities in Indonesia. The results of this study showed that the learning and teaching processes are implemented through the use of a combination of deductive and inductive teaching approaches in which students contribute actively to problem-solving activities. From written student work, we found various solution strategies and conceptual difficulties in solving school geometry problems. We conclude that the use of the deductive and inductive approaches has influenced students’ ability and creativity in solving geometry problems. This implies that the combination of the teaching approach has contributed to the development of prospective mathematics teachers’ ability in dealing with non-routine geometry problems.
