Individual Reflection: (Muhammad Ikhwan Bin Samsuddin)

In my experience, we have to do a lot of things when we try to complete this assignment. After doing a research, I can understand what is mean by non-routine problems. Non-routine problem solving serves a different purpose than routine problem solving. A routine is a sequence of actions regularly followed. Non-routine would be something you wouldn't do at all regularly.

When we try to try to solve the non-routine problems, we use polya theory to find a solution. It is easy for us to find solution and solve the problems using polya theory. Furthermore, there are a lot steps from polya theory that can be used to solve that problems. But not all problems can be solved using the same steps. There are a lot of strategies of polya theory such as draw a table, guess and check, draw a diagram and many more. We need to understand the question before we start using polya theory.

Moreover, there are four steps to solve the problems. Firstly, we need to understand the questions given. Read the question carefully and underline the keywords of that question. Secondly, after we understand the question, we need to device the problems using the strategies. There many possible strategies that we can use to solve that kind of questions. Thirdly, we need to carry out the plan and how to solve the problems using those strategies. We need at least two strategies for each problem because some people cannot understand the certain strategies. Lastly, we need to look back after solve the problems. It is because we need to check whether we answer the question or not and our answer is correct or not.

Last but not least, main point of this assignment is to produce beginning teacher, who are knowledgeable and skillful and we are assigned to gather information about this topic. First, make a meaningful and rational inferences and judgements based on knowledge of ratios. Second, construct visual representation of data and to...
