Abstract
This article reviews recent research on problem-solving strategies and their relationship to leaning and problem-solving processes. A distinction is made between schema-driven and search-based problem-solving strategies, and expert-novice differences in the use of these strategies are discussed. General strategies that facilitate the learning of problem schemata associated with expertise are contrasted with strategies that hinder schema learning. Constraints on the use of problem-solving strategies and the consequent implications for education are discussed. Suggestions for future research are made, which include the study of search-based strategies in experts and the effects of training on strategy use.
