Title
Computer support for mathematical word problem solving: Guided by Thai teachers' views
This study investigates Thai teachers' views in teaching and learning mathematical word problem, and the technology implementation to enhance teaching and learning mathematical word problem. Data were collected by use of semi-structured interviews with 24 mathematics teachers. The result of this study showed that the students' major difficulty in solving mathematical word problem lies in the understanding of the problem and the translation of the problem into equations. Therefore, the teachers' suggestions led to the design of a tool to help improve students' performance in solving mathematical word problem.
