Résumé
The aim of this study is to investigate how a teaching intervention that familiarizes pre-schoolers in the four-steps process of problem solving improves their problem-solving skills. The problemsolving skills of 20 pre-school children, attending a public kindergarten, were assessed before and after the intervention by task-based interviews on three problems. Results indicates that preschool childrencan advance their skills and become better problem solvers when they get familiar with PS’s four-steps process of better understanding a problem, devising a solution plan, carrying out the plan, and checking the outcome, while working with their peers on challenging problems.
