- Abstract
Reasoning helps one understand mathematical concepts, while understanding mathematical content helps one develop reasoning skills. When solving challenges that affect a person's cognitive development and ability to make rational decisions, reasoning skills are essential. However, because there aren't many cutting-edge teaching strategies, pupils’ mathematical reasoning skills are still regarded as lacking. The purpose of this study is to examine and assess how students’ mathematical reasoning skills are improving. With pretest and posttest groups receiving training using a problem-posing technique, the research design is a quasi-experiment. The test consists of five essay questions on mathematical reasoning. When taught using the problem-posing approach, students’ mathematical reasoning skills fall into the mediocre range. The mean scores are 5.53 on the pretest and 15.56 on the posttest before and after the treatment, showing a 41.79% improvement. The scholarly understanding this research adds to and the empirical foundation it provides for improving the calibre of mathematics instruction have ramifications for the field of education. Research establishing the effectiveness of the problem-posing method in enhancing students’ mathematical reasoning skills allows it to be regarded as an innovative way to learning.
