Abstract

This paper presents a review of the literature in the area of problem solving, particularly in physics, focusing only on strategies suggested to facilitate the activity of problem solving. Twentyeight papers were analyzed in terms of theoretical basis, strategies/research methodology, and findings, which were organized in a table that served as support for a synthesis made by the authors. It is the last of a four-paper series reviewing different aspects of the problem solving subject.
