Summary:One of the key goals of mathematics education is building problem solving skills. How does a mathematician approach problem solving? What does it mean to think like a mathematician? In this program, we'll look at a mathematician at work. We'll also visit students in a variety of problem solving situations to uncover parallels in the way that students and mathematicians solve problems.
