Abstract
The main purpose of this study was to investigate how well certain students in a high school solve non-routine problems. These problem situation required the use of their conceptual understanding of mathematics and their procedural knowledge of the algorithm involved in the solution. Results of analysis of students’ solutions showed that each student employed at least three problem solving strategies. Nine out of the ten possible problem solving strategies were used at least once to solve the eight non-routine problems.The most frequently used strategies were making systematic list, looking for patterns, logical reasoning and making a model or diagram.Those who performed well were also proficient in the use of solution strategies.
