Problem Solving
As students are explicitly taught specific cognitive strategys, problem solving software is associated with cognitive learning theory. Comparing to the drill and practice exercise, problem solving is much more sophisticated type of learning because computer presents complex problems in which students learns and improve their problem solving skills. Problem solving programs are designed to promote student's high thinking skills such as logic, reasoning, pattern recognition and strategies rather than solving through simply memorizing. Problem solving software is similar to simulation software because they often need to manipulate variables but problem solving software is generally category for teaching problem solving strategies where as simulation attempts to model real-life situations.
