ABSTRACT:
A system and method of teaching the formulation of word problems is provided. The method provides for a series of steps that systematically build components related to each other through dimensional analysis. When this method is implemented using computer software, the identification and relationships of the components are revealed through hypertext links and associated schematic diagrams. Additional tools needed to formulate the problem are accessible to the student through a database of mathematical tools, including formulas, rules, theorems, and suggested mathematical phrases that represent typical word phrases.
