Effects of problem-solving strategy based interactive e-book on measurement concepts

Abstract

Being a critical stage for mathematics enlightenment, the establishment of quantity conservation in lower grades of elementary schools is the key in learning various measurements. Assisting students in establishing strong problem-solving strategy is an important task for teachers. Aiming at the length measurement concept of students, a problem-solving strategy based interactive e-book learning system is developed for the length measurement instruction in this study. The research findings show that applying the problem-solving strategy based interactive e-book to the length measurement instruction could enhance students’ learning outcome and help them learn good problem-solving strategy and establish correct measurement concepts.
