IMPROVING STUDENT'S UNDERSTANDING ON ADDITION AND SUBTRACTION OF FRACTIONS USING PROBLEM SOLVING APPROACH

The purpose of this study is to improve students' understanding on fraction. The study is based on the final examination result of the Form One students of a secondary school. The finding revealed that students have difficulties on the addition and subtraction concept of fractions. Twenty students were chosen as samples for study. The students chosen were from different classes of Form One to represent the high, average and low ability students.The pre-test were conducted and come up with a problem solving approach to improve the students understanding. Then, the students were given a post test. The test items were analysed by comparing the means of the pre-test and the post-test. There was a marked difference in the means scores of the students in the pre-test and post-test. This means that students learned better, if they were taught through problem solving approach in a cooperative mode of learning
