What are the 5 types of problem
Age 5 to 11Published 2017 Revised 2019 Show Think about the last few mathematics lessons you have taught. How much problem solving did the children do? Despite being one of the three aims of the National Curriculum (DfE, 2013) problem solving often gets forgotten about or added in, often at the end of the lesson or on a Friday. Ofsted continually remind us that 'problem solving is not emphasised enough in the curriculum' (Better Mathematics Keynote, Spring 2015). So, perhaps one of the problems with problem solving is that we don't do it enough! At NRICH we believe that every lesson can be a problem-solving lesson. Our curriculum mapping documents link NRICH activities to different curriculum areas and this article provides further support when considering types of problems and strategies to include in your planning, as well as reminding you about the NRICH four stage process in solving problems. Planning for Problem Solving Remember, children don't become problem solvers just by doing problems! 1. Types of problems 2. Problem-solving skills
3. Four Stages of the Problem-solving Process Stage 1: Getting started Our article on Developing Excellence in Problem Solving with Young Learners offers a more detailed account of this process. Pulling it all together Focus for the lesson: Addition and multiplication

How many types of problem are there?The four types are: 1) truly generic. 2) truly unique. 3) generic, but unique for the situation 4) new generic problem. First identify whether the problem is generic or unique.
What are the three types of problems?Three Types of Problem. There are three types of problem: Tame, Complex and Wicked. Be sure you know which type you are working on. There are other ways of characterising problems (eg, linear/non-linear, hard/soft, the Cynefin Framework - which focusses on cause/effect) but the three types cover the whole spectrum.
