Abstract
This study proposes a new method of teaching and practicing problem-posing based on a probability game that enhances students’ problem structure comprehension. We employed problems with probability elements as subjects that interest numerous students and developed a problem modification/transformation method that allows them to create new problems independently. We suggest that this methodology can connect to basic engineering mathematics skills.
