Abstract

Today, how to increase the success and level of students' mathematical literacy is one of the most important areas of mathematics education. In this context, the study aimed to examine the effect of problem-solving strategies education on mathematical literacy. 42 students in the eighth grade of the secondary school participated in the study, in which the experimental design was preferred in quantitative research methods. Five-week problem-solving strategies education was carried out with 21 students in the experimental group. The data of the study were obtained with the mathematical literacy test, which was developed to determine the mathematical literacy achievement and levels of the experimental and control groups before and after the education. As a result of the findings, it was determined that problem-solving strategies education had a significant effect on students' mathematical literacy achievement. Concordantly, suggestions have been made regarding the need to use problem-solving strategies to improve mathematical literacy.
