ANALYZING PROBLEM-SOLVING STRATEGIES IN CHEMISTRY EDUCATION

Abstract

This paper explores the various problem-solving strategies employed by students in the field of chemistry education. By examining the cognitive processes involved in solving chemistry problems, this research aims to identify effective strategies that can enhance students' problem-solving skills. The study utilizes a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods to analyze the approaches taken by students when faced with chemistry problems. The findings shed light on the importance of metacognitive awareness, conceptual understanding, and practice in improving problem-solving abilities in chemistry education.
