Here is the concept:

  1. Student is presented with a problem. He/she may not even understand what is being asked, or may attempt.

  2. Students reads a solution to the problem. In it there may be explanations about concepts - so there is a "content" part, but as part of an actual problem being solved, at the level the student is currently at.

  3. If answer is correct, moves on to the next problem.

  4. When a set of problems of a given topic is consistently correct (say 10 out of 10 consecutive questions), student is given the next topic, or the next difficulty level.

Point being: At no point is there a proper "lesson".

  What are your views about such an approach, compared with lesson-solve, lesson-solve, etc.

Subtle grammar correction in the title. Both titles are correct but there are nuanced differences. This one seems more precise for what OP is asking

Can mathematics be learned ONLY by ONLY solving problems?
