Jun 10 '10 Learn How To Solve Problems

Problem solving in business isn’t just for times of change or crisis; it’s an essential skill that can prevent problems and promote continual improvement of the organization. Make problem solving a standard part of employee training, so your staff will be skilled in spotting potential problems, and already know to address any issues that arise.

Problem solving is the process of taking corrective action in order to meet objectives. Some of the more effective decisions involve creativity. Problem solving as a method of teaching may be used to accomplish the instructional goals of learning basic facts, concepts, and procedures, as well as goals for problem solving within problem contexts.

For example, if students investigate the areas of all triangles having a fixed perimeter of 60 units, the problem solving activities should provide ample practice in computational skills and use of formulas and procedures, as well as opportunities for the conceptual development of the relationships between area and perimeter.

Problem solving is a recursive process; you must continually go back and forth between steps and do some parts again. Similarly, you might not always proceed in exactly this order. Problem solving is at the heart of today’s goal of teaching and learning mathematics for understanding.

It is the first of the five process standards addressed in the NCTM’s Principals and Standards for School Mathematics (NCTM, 2000). Problem solving is both the starting point and ending point of any well-balanced mathematics lesson. Skills lessons begin with a problem, a skill is then taught to help solve the problem, and the newly acquired skill enables students to find a solution.

Problem solving forms an important part of teaching critical thinking. Many see problem solving as part and parcel of critical thinking while some consider it synonymous with creative thinking. Problem Solving Power will show you how to best use techniques like assumption-challenging, a modifying word list, and the add-subtract-change technique.

You’ll also be introduced to the “assume the absurd” technique, and other methods you’ve probably never heard of. Problem solving involves both analytical and creative skills: analytical in comprehending the problem and the relationships within the original situation, and in checking the results of results of each step, and creative in devising the solution.

Imagination plays a large part in both of these skills: problem solving requires the ability to imagine a chain of intermediate steps and their consequences.

Problem solving is a process in which we perceive and resolve a gap between a present situation and a desired goal, with the path to the goal blocked by known or unknown obstacles. In general, the situation is one not previously encountered, or where at least a specific solution from past experiences is not known.

Problem solving, particularly in artificial intelligence, may be characterized as a systematic search through a range of possible actions in order to reach some predefined goal or solution.

Problem-solving methods divide into special purpose and general purpose. Problem solving activities are an effective way to engage learners in your content. Students are faced with a “real world” dilemma or task and use their knowledge and skills to seek meaningful solutions.

Problem solving was initially studied principally by psychologists, and more recently by researchers in artificial intelligence. It has received rather scant attention from economists.

Jun 06 '10 Solve That Problem-Tap Into Your Creative Mind

0 COMMENT   

How many times have you caught yourself saying that there could be no other solution to a problem and that problem leads to a dead end? How many times have you felt stumped knowing that the problem laying before you is one you cannot solve. No leads. No options. No solutions.

Did it feel like you had exhausted all possible options and yet are still before the mountain, large, unconquerable, and impregnable? When encountering such enormous problems, you may feel like you’re hammering against a steel mountain. The pressure of having to solve such a problem may be overwhelming.

But rejoice! There might be some hope yet!

With some creative problem-solving techniques you may be able to look at your problem in a different light. And that light might just be the end of the tunnel that leads to possible solutions.

First of all, in the light of creative problem-solving, you must be open-minded to the fact that there may be more than just one solution to the problem. And, you must be open to the fact that there may be solutions to problems you thought were unsolvable.

Now, with this optimistic mindset, we can try to be a little bit more creative in solving our problems.

Number one; maybe the reason we cannot solve our problems is that we have not really taken a hard look at what the problem is. Here, trying to understanding the problem and having a concrete understanding of its workings is integral solving the problem. If you know how it works, what the problem is, then you have a better foundation towards solving the problem.

Not trying to make the simple statement of what problem is. Try to identify the participating entities and what their relationships with one another are. Take note of the things you stand to gain any stand to lose from the current problem. Now you have a simple statement of what the problem is.

Number two; try to take note of all of the constraints and assumptions you have the words of problem. Sometimes it is these assumptions that obstruct our view of possible solutions. You have to identify which assumptions are valid, in which assumptions need to be addressed.

Number three; try to solve the problem by parts. Solve it going from general view towards the more detailed parts of the problem. This is called the top-down approach. Write down the question, and then come up with a one-sentence solution to that from them. The solution should be a general statement of what will solve the problem. From here you can develop the solution further, and increase its complexity little by little.

Number four; although it helps to have critical thinking aboard as you solve a problem, you must also keep a creative, analytical voice at the back of your head. When someone comes up with a prospective solution, tried to think how you could make that solution work. Try to be creative. At the same time, look for chinks in the armor of that solution.

Number five; it pays to remember that there may be more than just one solution being developed at one time. Try to keep track of all the solutions and their developments. Remember, there may be more than just one solution to the problem.

Number six; remember that old adage,” two heads are better than one.” That one is truer than it sounds. Always be open to new ideas. You can only benefit from listening to all the ideas each person has. This is especially true when the person you’re talking to has had experience solving problems similar to yours.

You don’t have to be a gung-ho, solo hero to solve the problem. If you can organize collective thought on the subject, it would be much better.

Number seven; be patient. As long as you persevere, there is always a chance that a solution will present itself. Remember that no one was able to create an invention the first time around.

Creative thinking exercises can also help you in your quest be a more creative problems solver.

Here is one example.

Take a piece of paper and write any word that comes to mind at the center. Now look at that word then write the first two words that come to your mind. This can go on until you can build a tree of related words. This helps you build analogical skills, and fortify your creative processes.

So, next time you see a problem you think you can not solve, think again. The solution might just be staring you right in the face. All it takes is just a little creative thinking, some planning, and a whole lot of work.

AUTOGRAPH( Life is a Sweet Problem)

(Just solve it)

The problem can be defined as a doubtful or difficult matter requiring a solution. Anything that stops you from achieving a set goal is a problem. Problems need solution. Problems are like obstacles in our journey of life. We face them daily. They contribute to our being successful or unsuccessful in life. A lot depends on how we face them. This article is to share some thoughts with you on how these problems can be solved.

We started facing problem right from the day we came in to this earth, as new born we were unable to talk and walk. When we started walking we were unable to talk, when we started to talk we were unable to get what we want from or parents. Getting into school was the next step problem continues…….. where we were forced with lot of home works and lot of subjects to learn Monthly test quarterly exam, half yearly exam and annual exam. Solving the school problems we entered into college life, as a youth what lot of problems problem continues……..  we faced and the youths of current facing now. Assignments tutorials unit test model exams in between these hard days it’s the crucial age where we take our books but could not read, they feel hungry but not able to take food when consulted with friends and relatives than a doctor it was found that the disease of love has entered into his life. Encountering all these problems we struggle a lot to get a degree. Managed to become a graduate, then a new problems starts problem continues……..  where we take out countable numbers of resume and sit on the internet for a job hunt. Problems get ignited by facing interviews answering their imprudent questions. Insulted and degraded by the interviewer, bearing all these in the burdened heart struggles a lot to get an employment.Though happy with the employment and the remuneration, the problem continues……..  in the work place. Problems comes to us through the peers working with us, facing the situation and considering the family and life develops a strong attitude to work. For few years for some and few years for some life was good and happy with the employment. The situation and life demands the need of a life partner. A new problem blossoms with the married life problem continues……... Though the journey begins in meadows and gardens later on it travels to hard and thorny roads,with lot of commitments and responsibilities on the shoulders. First night may be entertaining and interesting, few happy sleepless nights but later on only sleepless nights, though a strong  desire to sleep Mind and soul is not comfort . Problem continues…… after a year or two a temporary good news, wife is conceived, happy to hear the news, shares with family and friends but the problem continues…….. Taking the wife for regular medical check up and other maternity treatments in the rush and expensive hospital. Ten months later a good news, wife gave birth to a sweet little Boy or Girl baby shares the memorable moment in life with family and friends. After two months problem continues wife fells into sickness after few weeks child is sick then to hospital and lots of sleepless night. problem continues…….. after 30 months admission of child in the school. Planning to impart quality education which again is a problem where that education demands huge amounts problem continues…….. Dropping and picking up the children from school, attending parents meeting and children’s day celebration inpsite of our busy schedule is a problem, the problem continues……..  After the completion of school education, seeking admission to colleges paying huge amount of fees, roaming around various institutions enquiring for admissions problem continues……...It is the duty of every parent to bring up the children with care and affection no doubt about that, but development of technology and modernization are the real great challenges that lies before the youngsters. Parents are more cautious and concern that their children should grow up without any bad habits and bad culture. Every day parents are mentally disturbed by their college going children, whether they return home in time and safe is the main concern of the all the parents, problem continues…….. After their college studies they have  to get an employment problem continues after employment they have to be married and that has to be done problem continues…….. After getting married it’s a big question that lies in the hearts of millions of parents is that whether he will look after his or her parents problem continues…….. It is clearly understood that life is journey which  travels along the side of sweet problems. It all depends on the individual, how we are encountering these problems, whether as sweet or a bitter and terrible one. If you want to face your problems with a positive and a sportive attitude it solely lies on our hands. Example now just think about your school days your teacher who punished you for not doing your home work, think about the professor who sent you out of the classroom for not submitting your assignment, think about the first interview you attended and the stupid questions the interviewer fired on you, think about the first job you joined the first salary you received, think about the first girl with whom you fall in love, think about the first love letter you gave to your girlfriend last but not the least think about the situation you are in now.———————————————————————-Is your life filled with problems? If your answer is yes you are a failure in life if your answer is no you are the right person fit to be here on this earth. False and blame excusers will find the life as journey through problems. but positive thinkers like the great composer who gave several beautiful and melodious composition Bethoven was a deaf, the great and famous nature poet Milton who admired the nature  than any other person in the world was blind, the first president of America Roosevelt was administering the country from sitting in the wheel chair. Do you think that these people thought their life is problem? If they say no ,why not you? What is the problem in your life? What do you want to see? What stops you from achieving it? Look around you for your ‘opportunity’. May be you’re very far  and therefore you’ve stuck with the crowd. Think like Bethoven, Milton and Roosevelt  you may have to crawl, walk or run to the pathway to solving it.                            Yes you Can.

May 31 '10 To Live is to Have Problems and to Solve Problems Means Growing Intellectually

0 COMMENT   

To live, is to have problems and to “solve problems” is to grow intellectually,” quoted J. P. Guilford.

In other words, we all run into or face problems sometime, or the other. Problems can be work related, or personal problems and it can be said that one man’s solution to a problem could turn to be another’s nightmare. This is because according to Guilford’s “Structure of Intellect” (SI) theory, an individual’s performance on intelligence tests can be traced back to the underlying mental abilities, or factors of intelligence.

Personal Problem

About five years ago, I became handicapped and this put me in a catch-22 situation. Here I was all set to go out for any little excuse but for some reason or the other, I just couldn’t get myself to doing it. It was absolute misery and it wasn’t a surprise when things spiraled quickly out of control. I managed to alienate myself from most of my friends and family and infact did a good job of it. It was then the computer and the net came to my rescue. It’s funny which how much you can do with this machine. There is enormous potential out there for mothers based at home who can work out wonders with this machine and the net and this applies to men working from home as well

Since then, it became a full time relationship with the computer and net and the question of doing another job did not even arise. Now, the subject question here is; whenever you ever run into such serious problems, what are the methods or processes that have been adopted in resolving it.

Sometimes, the problems resolve itself like in my case, and all it required was some time. In other words, it did not require any outside help, such as a shrink to resolve it. Ofcourse, I did visit a shrink but that’s another story and we’ll leave that for a rainy day

I say this because when you encounter problems and tend to ignore them, they just disappear. It gives you the feeling that when you tend to ignore them, they just solve itself. It’s magical, solutions emerge from nowhere. In fact, this method made me more relaxed and I refused to view problems as they are. Instead I only view them as solutions that have encountered a minor setback or delay.

Theoretically, majority of the problems resolve themselves in the long run. All that remains are the worry and tension that it caused. In a time based scenario, the only “problem” is that we don’t know when the so-called problem would be resolved and the time-period could cause quite a bit of misery.

So let’s assume as per the subject topic we have run into a generic problem that need solutions. A problem as such cannot be described, as it must be remembered that no problem can exist in the absence of an objective. That is to say, we need to know exactly where we want to arrive so that we can properly determine our track, as well as direction.

In his lateral thinking theory, DeBono stressed the importance of “looking at a problem with a fresh perspective”. In other words, knowing our direction is an important aspect in problem solving.

Now, the first thing when I encounter a problem is change or restructure my way of thinking. For this I need sleep. By sleep, I mean a sound sleep. The sleep gives me a relaxed mind, and makes problem-solving far easier, instead of purely relying on intuition. After a sound sleep, your approach to solve the problem becomes more systematic, more balanced and logical. Starting from that point it becomes easier to see what lies in front of you.

The SIX Processes

After the sleep, it is better to split the problem into smaller problems and begin solving it step by step. It is realistic when you do this and write the processes down, as you would very soon begin to see the possible solutions that underlie within each problem. That is to say, in order to resolve problems effectively one has to understand the whole process and their role in making the problems work. And as we live in a talking culture, it is imperative that we put these things in writing. This procedure helps you identify the best solution embedded within each problem

After writing it down, the next step in our hypothetical problem is to identify pain points, if any, and identify the connections between the connecting pain points. This would help me understand the problem better and then take on the objectives and translate them into structured programs. Then I could evaluate which solution has the most advantages, and further break down these solutions into different stages, while at the same time conduct a SWOT analysis between solutions.

Thirdly, I will reflect on the possible solutions while consulting friends and relatives, and then conduct a strategic analysis and begin to tailor solutions according to feedback and sentiments. This would eventually result in deeper penetration and a larger perception of the whole problem

Stage number four is to evaluate all possible solutions, i.e., reviewing the problem point by point, while analyzing the pros and cons of each solution. The next step or stage number five is when I implement the decision. Last of all, stage number six is post-decision justification or evaluation of the outcome. Ofcourse this also means the implementation of any follow-up actions required.

Now the question is what have all these so called stages to do with my personal situation. Although, I applied all these processes, none of these methods were adopted in my case as the solution to my problem turned out to be time and patience. It was just out of frustration I started toying with the computer, and which eventually materialized in to a hobby and subsequently into a job. It is only when you encounter or run into problems, only then, these so called strategies materialize. In other words, it is only when you start visualizing the problem mathematically, you begin to analyze what the problem really is, and start approaching it in an organized and logical manner. Then the whole problem becomes easier to solve.

Conclusion

It is only when you start visualizing the problem mathematically, you begin to analyze what the problem really is and start approaching it in an organized and logical manner. Then the whole problem becomes easier to solve.

Don’t ever make the mistake of making the problem bigger than it is, as any solution appears to be good, and the actual problem is only as big as you perceive it to be. You should always visualize that you are “bigger” than the problem itself. This gives it a positive outlook, which definitely counts in solving problems in the long run. Finally, never give up whatever the problem may be. Just stick in there. You will soon find a solution. Remember, it is just that problems help you to enhance your ability to live happily.

Once you solve a problem, the feeling and satisfaction of solving it is so great that explaining it has just no words. In Living a Life That Matters, Harold S. Kushner (the Massachusetts rabbi whose best selling books include When Bad Things Happen to Good People) suggests that the most successful lives are the ones that most effectively manage and “solve their problems”.
