| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立中興大學 === 應用數學系所 === 106 === The objective of this research is to study the performance of mathematical problem solving abilities of new immigrants’ children. This research adapt purposive sampling, selecting total 79 new immigrants’ children from a junior high school in Taichung city as research objects. The tool of this research is a questionnaire of “mathematical problems solving abilities”.
To understand the differences among the new immigrants’ children, this research adapt the questionnaire to collect and observe the relationship among the following variables: the nationality and socioeconomic status of new immigrant parents, family atmosphere and background of new immigrant family, mathematical comprehensive abilities and learning attitude and problem solving abilities of new immigrants’ children.The statistical methods adapted include descriptive statistics, one-way ANOVA, and independent-sample t test.
The primary findings of this research are:
1. Most of the socioeconomic status of new immigrant parents in the junior high school are at medium-low level. None is at high level.
2. The socioeconomics status of new immigrant parents won’t affect their family atmosphere and background, and mathematical comprehensive abilities and learning attitude In terms of mathematical problem-solving ability, the new immigrants’ children of medium socioeconomic status was higher than the ones of medium-low socioeconomic status.
3. The gender of new immigrants’ children will not affect their family atmosphere, mathematical comprehensive abilities and learning attitude and problem solving abilities.
4. The grand of new immigrants’ children won’t affect their family atmosphere and background. As to mathematical comprehensive abilities and learning attitude, the new immigrants’ children in grade 3 perform better than the ones in grade 1 and 2. As to problem-solving ability, they perform better than the ones in grade 1.
