Research On The Relationship Between Cognitive Style And Mathematic Problem Resolving

Along with the individual teaching (or specific teaching) become more popular, Cognitive style is becoming the hotspot of research. Learning is the start of the educational activity; the master of the learning process, manner, and discipline is the chief precondition on the success in educational activity. To every student, the study is restricted by the factor outside the individual, but it's ongoing inside the individual. So the individual will put up different incline to the study, the manner and strategy they take are different too. The educational interference will take satisfactory effect on the condition that making clear the individual difference of every student, and it is fulfilled by the research on student's cognitive style. It will promote the individual teaching and provide a new approach on the comprehensive development of student. At present, the research on cognitive style is at the beginning in our country. Due to the lack of system and practical teaching strategy, teacher can hardly identify the cognitive style of different student; design the efficient teaching strategy pertinently. As a result, the ideal development of every student cannot be guaranteed. So, study and consult the overseas theory about cognitive style, combined with the practice in our country has unique value and effect not only to the subject development of psychology and pedagogic, but also to the teaching practice.In the mathematic problem resolving activity, the main factors that affect the progresses are student's cognitive framework, individual psychological character, mathematic problem under cognition, and strategy of problem resolving. The whole process of problem resolving is understand, assimilation, conversion of the problem, using the effective strategy of problem resolving to achieve the goal. Facing the mathematic problem, students make differentassessment of the character of their thinking manner and habit. Because there are differences between them, it's certainly led to the difference between the method and respect on mathematic problem, and sum up to different cognitive style.When we study how to carry out diathesis education, culture the ability of student, we must accept the individual difference of student's learning psychology, discuss the relationship between cognitive style and strategy of problem resolving. It can promote our mathematic teaching more effectively. Are the process and strategy of problem resolving affected by the cognitive style? Are there obvious different cognitive styles in the process of mathematic problem resolving? What's the practical meaning of realizing the different character of cognitive style? This research put forward a theoretic hypothesis combined with the research achievement on cognitive style and mathematic problem resolving home or abroad: the process and strategy of problem resolving affected by the cognitive style; different student have different cognitive level and style, it's led to the different cognitive mode and psychological progress, influence the choice of the problem resolving strategy. So, the mode of information progress can be figured as "recognize-memorize-search-choose".For proving the hypothesis, this study choose the student in high school grade two as the quizzee, make the questionnaire about cognitive style, identify the two kinds of cognitive style: field dependence and independence, give quizzee the examination paper of mathematic problem resolving, discover the effect of cognitive style on mathematic problem resolving. We hope it can provide a theoretical supporting for the individual teaching in the process of mathematic teaching.Conclusion of this practical research:1. In the process of mathematic problem resolving, different cognitive style have no prominent difference effect on the progress and result of basic problem.2. The theoretic hypothesis has been proved, that is: the mode of information progress can be figured as "recognize-memorize-search-choose"; the strategy of problem resolving is the important factor f...
