Digital storytelling: a meaningful technology-integrated approach for engaged student learning (2008, unknown): “In mathematics education, Jonassen (2003) believes that story problems are the most”
"Playing the game" of story problems: Coordinating situation-based reasoning with algebraic representation (2012, background): “In mathematics education, story problems, or word problems, have been heavily researched as a mode of contextualization, which is not surprising given that they are a large part of curriculum, instruction, and assessment from kindergarten to undergraduate mathematics courses (Jonassen, 2003).”
The Examining Mathematical Word Problems Solving Ability under Efficient Representation Aspect (2013, background): “While solving the problems, students will go through two phases such as interpretation of the mathematical language and the calculation process [6, 11, 25].”
Mathematical Word Problem Solving in Third-Grade Classrooms (2007, background): “Story problems pose difficulties for many elementary students because of the complexity of the solution process (Jonassen, 2003; Lucangeli, Tressoldi, & Cendron, 1998; Schurter, 2002).”
The effects of using drawings in developing young children’s mathematical word problem solving: A design experiment with third-grade Hungarian students (2012, background): “Jonassen (2003) aimed at providing theoretical analysis of “story” word problems that prevent students from using the direct translation strategy.”
The effect of simulation games on the learning of computational problem solving (2011, background): “As a result, problem solving has been extensively applied to many subject domains such as science (Linn, Clark, & Slotta, 2003), mathematics (Jonassen, 2003) and design (Jermann & Dillenbourg, 2008) as a means of promoting learning in these domains.”
A Comparison of Two Mathematics Problem-Solving Strategies: Facilitate Algebra-Readiness (2011, background): “Contemporary approaches to story-problem solving have emphasized the conceptual understanding of the story problems before any solution attempts that involve selecting and applying an arithmetic operation for solution (Jonassen, 2003).”
Teaching Conceptual Model—Based Word Problem Story Grammar to Enhance Mathematics Problem Solving (2008, unknown): “However, according to Jonassen (2003), “contemporary approaches to story problem solving have emphasized the conceptual understanding of the story problems before any solution attempts” (p. 269).”
Supporting Algebraic Reasoning through Personalized Story Scenarios: How Situational Understanding Mediates Performance (2013, background): “However, we argue that students ultimately need to experience mathematics at various levels of authenticity, including these more traditional mathematics story problems, which are prevalent in textbooks, curricula, and on various exams from kindergarten to college (Jonassen, 2003).”
Word Problem-Solving Instruction in Inclusive Third-Grade Mathematics Classrooms (2009, background): “Yet, story problems pose difficulties for many students because of the complexity of the solution process ( Jonassen, 2003; Lucangeli, Tressoldi, & Cendron, 1998; Schurter, 2002).”
What Teachers Say About Student Difficulties Solving Mathematical Word Problems in Grades 2-5 (2013, background): “" This is especially troublesome in light of Jonassen's (2003) research on problem solving strategies.”
