In this paper, we focus on learning through problem-posing in arithmetic word problems and propose an environment for stepwise learning of problem-posing. As a foundation for stepwise learning, we have summarized the relationship between problem-posing tasks as a problem-posing task graph by setting difficulty levels based on the of conditions that must be considered during problem-posing. This is based on a domain that summarizes the structural conditions necessary for arithmetic word problems to be valid. Based on this, we designed and developed a stepwise learning environment called Monsakun Step. To verify its effectiveness, we conducted an experiment with university students. The results suggest that using Monsakun Step may be particularly effective for learners with a low structural understanding of arithmetic word problems.
