Mathematics textbooks for the first year of junior high school in Mexico: problems and problem-solving strategies
Using the classification methods for mathematical problems in textbooks (Fan & Zhu, 2000) and strategies used to solve problems (Fan & Zhu, 2007), this paper reports the results of an analysis and classification of the type of mathematical problems and problem-solving strategies in a sample...

It is concluded that the textbooks focus on providing a comprehensive range of problems that, for the most part, do not allow multiple problem-solving strategies, whereas others can be solved using an algorithm or direct procedure. Utilizando el método de clasificación de problemas matemáticos en los libros de texto (Fan y Zhu, 2000) y el de estrategias empleadas en la solución de un problema (Fan y Zhu, 2007), este artículo reporta los resultados del análisis y clasificación del tipo de problemas matemáticos y estrategias de solución en una muestra conformada por los cinco libros de texto de matemáticas de primer grado de secundaria con mayor distribución en el ciclo escolar 2013-2014 en México. Se concluye que los libros de texto se enfocan en ofrecer un amplio compendio de problemas que, en su mayoría, no admiten el uso de diferentes estrategias para su solución, mientras otros se resuelven aplicando cierto algoritmo o procedimiento directo.
