One of the most important tasks of the didactics of mathematics is the describing of the process of problem-solving activity and problem-solving thinking. The psychological theories concerning the problem-solving thinking leave the special demand of school subjects out of consideration, and search for connections of universal validity. In this article we attempt to connect an abstract theory of psychology concerning problem-solving thinking and a more practical conception of the problem-solving activity of mathematics, which is based on Polya's idea. In this way we can get a structure of problem-solving, which has scientific bases and at the same time it is useful in computer aided learning. Our result was developed and tested in Hungary so this is suitable especially for the Hungarian conditions of mathematics teaching.
