Schoenfeld's study found that the strategies alone are weak, and need to be strengthened by complementary domain-specific tactics. He also showed the importance of students' monitoring their work on a problem and adjusting their tactical and technical moves accordingly. This work was published as Mathematical Problem Solving (1985).

In his chapter on thinking mathematically (1992), Alan Schoenfeld suggests that whilst the idea of problems has been a part of the maths curriculum for ever, problem solving has not. And furthermore there are different definitions of what a problem is, and hence what problem solving means.
A serious book written by a well-known mathematics education researcher. I reaped multiple benefits from reading this book: First, it provides well-drawn picture about what factors influence the process and outcome of people's problem solving.
The Role of Affect in Mathematical Problem Solving. Authors; Authors and affiliations; Douglas B. McLeod; Chapter. 17 Citations; 533 Downloads; Abstract. When students are given a nonroutine mathematical problem to solve, their reactions often include a lot of emotion. If they work on the problem over an extended period of time, the emotional responses frequently become quite intense. Many.
