Discussion
A primary school teacher can encourage children to become effective problem solvers by
Answer: D
The teacher should be encouraging children to make intuitive guesses and then brainstorming on the same.
Good problem solvers are willing to try ideas, estimate and then test and refine them. Inviting guesses and discussing them openly builds that confidence and teaches children to reason about why an idea works or not.
Material rewards for every small task make children work for the prize, stressing only procedures discourages flexible thinking, and penalising wrong answers makes children afraid to try, which is the opposite of what problem solving needs.
