  2. Problem solving - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Problem_solving

    The former is an example of simple problem solving (SPS) addressing one issue, whereas the latter is complex problem solving (CPS) with multiple interrelated obstacles. [1] Another classification of problem-solving tasks is into well-defined problems with specific obstacles and goals, and ill-defined problems in which the current situation is ...

    D0 also incorporates standard assessing questions meant to determine whether a full G8D is required. The assessing questions are meant to ensure that in a world of limited problem-solving resources, the efforts required for a full team-based problem-solving effort are limited to those problems that warrant these resources.

  4. Trial and error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trial_and_error

    This approach can be seen as one of the two basic approaches to problem-solving, contrasted with an approach using insight and theory. However, there are intermediate methods that, for example, use theory to guide the method, an approach known as guided empiricism. [citation needed]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lateral_thinking

    Problem solving When something creates a problem, the performance or the status quo of the situation drops. Problem-solving deals with finding out what caused the problem and then figuring out ways to fix the problem. The objective is to get the situation to where it should be. For example, a production line has an established run rate of 1000 ...

    First, you have to understand the problem. [2] After understanding, make a plan. [3] Carry out the plan. [4] Look back on your work. [5] How could it be better? If this technique fails, Pólya advises: [6] "If you cannot solve the proposed problem, try to solve first some related problem. Could you imagine a more accessible related problem?"

    TRIZ flowchart Contradiction matrix 40 principles of invention, principles based on TRIZ. One tool which evolved as an extension of TRIZ was a contradiction matrix. [14] The ideal final result (IFR) is the ultimate solution of a problem when the desired result is achieved by itself.

  8. Problem-based learning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Problem-based_learning

    Problem-based learning (PBL) is a teaching method in which students learn about a subject through the experience of solving an open-ended problem found in trigger material. The PBL process does not focus on problem solving with a defined solution, but it allows for the development of other desirable skills and attributes.

  9. Creative problem-solving - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creative_problem-solving

    Creative problem-solving (CPS) [1] is the mental process of searching for an original and previously unknown solution to a problem. To qualify, the solution must be novel and reached independently. [1] [2] The creative problem-solving process was originally developed by Alex Osborn and Sid Parnes. Creative problem solving (CPS) is a way of ...
