Fostering mathematical problem-solving competence for 7th graders through teaching practical problems involving proportional quantities

Abstract

The article proposes several measures to enhance mathematical problem-solving skills for 7th-grade students by teaching practical problems involving proportional quantities. The measures includes: using real-world problems related to the topic of proportional quantities to train students in applying mathematical knowledge to solve life-related issues, meeting the demands of scientific and technological development in the digital transformation era. It also involves organizing activities where students verify the correctness and generalization of their problem-solving solutions.
