| Popis | The contribution analyses mistakes in two Mathematical Kangaroo word “real-life” problems. The respective problems are non-standard, i.e. primary school pupils must apply higher cognitive functions to solve them successfully as simple application of knowledge obtained in classes of mathematics is not sufficient. They further have the form of multiple choice. We believe that the quantitative analysis of the choice of incorrect distractors enables us to estimate the reasons of pupils’ mistakes. Our research was performed on the sample of 430 respondents, pupils of 4th and 5th grade of primary school. Our contribution presents histograms of choices of distractors in both tasks and samples of pupils' solution records. |
