In a classic study in the are of problem solving, Katona (1940) compared the effectiveness of two methods of instruction. One group of participants was shown the exact, step-by-step procedure for solving a problem and was required to memorize the solution. Participants in a second group were encouraged to study the problem and find the solution of their own. They were given helpful hints and clues, but the exact solution was never explained. The study included the problem in the following figure showing a pattern of five squares made of matchsticks. The problem is to change the pattern into exactly four squares by moving only thee matches. (All matches must be used, non can be removed, and all the squares must be the same size.) After 3 weeks, both groups returned to be tested again. The two groups did equally well on the matchstick problem they had learned earlier. But when they were given new problems (similar to the matchstick problem), the memorization group had much lower scores…
a.) Make a list of the amounts of money one can have that cannot be reduced to a smaller number of coins. (Hint: there are seven possible amounts.) One of the amounts is (d+e). b.) Make an addition table for Glosian money. It should be a seven by seven table, with a row and column for each of the amounts you found in the previous problem. For example, your table shouldshow that (d+e)+d=f c.) One of the seven amounts you found in the previous problem can be considered to be the zero of Glosian money, since adding it to a collection of coins does not change the collection’s value (after trading to get the smallest possible number of coins, of course.) Which amount is the zero forGlosian money? d.) The opposite of an amount is the amount you add to it to get the zero. Find the opposite of each of the seven amounts.
