The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding which view does not justify the real meaning of problem-solving as an approach to teaching mathematics, we will analyze each option provided. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Context**: The question asks us to identify which of the four views articulated by teachers does not align with the concept of problem-solving in mathematics education. 2. **Analyze Each Option**: - **Option A**: "It is better to connect problem solving with general mathematics class." - This view supports the integration of problem-solving into the broader mathematics curriculum, which is a valid approach. - **Option B**: "There is no correlation between problem solving and mathematical reasoning." - This view suggests that problem-solving is unrelated to mathematical reasoning, which contradicts the essence of problem-solving in mathematics, as reasoning is a fundamental part of solving problems. - **Option C**: "Questions on problem solving should be made from situations based on real life." - This view encourages the use of real-life situations in problem-solving, which is a widely accepted practice in teaching mathematics. - **Option D**: "Many questions found in the Mathematics Textbook can be used for problem solving." - This view indicates that textbook questions can be utilized for problem-solving, which is also a valid perspective. 3. **Identify the Incorrect View**: - After analyzing the options, we can see that **Option B** is the only view that does not justify the real meaning of problem-solving in mathematics, as it denies the connection between problem-solving and mathematical reasoning. 4. **Conclusion**: Therefore, the answer to the question is **Option B**.
