an introduction about problem solving skills

1. It is a cognitive process used to identify, analyze, and resolve challenges or obstacles. It involves evaluating various solutions and selecting the most suitable one based on the given criteria. It requires critical thinking, creativity and the ability to apply different strategies and techniques. WHAT IS PROBLEM SOLVING?

2. IT IS THE ACT OF DEFINING A PROBLEM; DETERMINING THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM; IDENTIFYING, PRIORITIZING, AND SELECTING ALTERNATIVES FOR SOLUTION; AND IMPLEMENTING A SOLUTION.

3. WHY DOES PROBLEM SOLVING IMPORTANT? TRAIN THE STUDENTS IN THE ACT OF REASONING GAIN AND IMPROVE THE KNOWLEDGE SOLVE PUZZLING QUESTIONS OVERCOME THE OBSTACLES IN THE ATTAINMENT OF OBJECTIVES. DEVELOP CRITICAL, LOGICAL AND ANALYTICAL THINKING. HELP STUDENTS BECOME BETTER IN DECISION MAKING

4. WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE: APPROACH? METHOD? STRATEGY? TECHNIQUE?

5. APPROACH IT IS A TECHNIQUE PEOPLE USE TO BETTER UNDERSTAND THE PROBLEMS AND TO DEVELOP OPTIMAL SOLUTIONS. IT INVOLVES A CLEAR PROCESS - (IDEA) IDENTIFY THE PROBLEM, DEVELOP SOLUTIONS, EXECUTE A PLAN AND THEN ASSESS YOUR RESULTS.

6. METHOD IT IS A PROCESS OF ARTICULATING A SPECIFIC AND ACTIONABLE PROBLEM AND IDENTIFYING THE ROOT CAUSES OF THAT PROBLEM USING DATA, RESEARCH AND COLLABORATION, IDEATING AND REFINING POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS BEFORE IMPLEMENTING AND MEASURING THE IMPACT OF THAT SOLUTION. IT REFERS TO SETTLE KIND OF PROCEDURE – DEFINITE, ESTABLISHED, LOGICAL OR SYSTEMATIC PLAN.

7. STRATEGY IT IS A PLAN USED TO FIND A SOLUTION OR OVERCOME A CHALLENGE WHEREIN IT INCLUDES MULTIPLE STEPS. IT IS AN ACT OF MAKING A NEW SET OF CHOICES DESIGNED TO SOLVE A PROBLEM THAT WAS CREATED BY THE INTERACTION OF EXISTING SET OF CHOICES. IT IS THE ACT OF DEFINING A PROBLEM; DETERMINING THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM; IDENTIFYING, PRIORITIZING AND SELECTING ALTERNATIVES FOR A SOLUTION; AND IMPLEMENTING A SOLUTION.

8. IT IS THE ABILITY TO FIND SOLUTIONS TO DIFFICULT OR COMPLEX ISSUES, USING TECHNOLOGY AS A TOOL TO SOLVE PROBLEMS THAT MAY OR MAY NOT THEMSELVES BE OF A TECHNICAL NATURE. IT IS A SYSTEMATIC METHODS FOR RECOGNIZING, EVALUATING, AND RESOLVING ISSUES IN AN ORGANIZED WAY. SKILLS: ANALYSIS, COMMUNICATION, EMOTIONAL, INTELLIGENCE, RESILIENCE, CREATIVITY, ADAPTABILITY AND TEAMWORK. TECHNIQUE

10. WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE: PROCESS? PROCEDURE? STEP?

11. PROCESS IT IS A SERIES OF TASKS AND ACTIVITIES THAT PRODUCE AN OUTCOME. IT IS AN UPPER LEVEL DESCRIPTION OF A SERIES OF MAJOR STEPS REQUIRED TO ACCOMPLISH AN OBJECTIVE.

12. PROCESS WITH WHAT? (materials & equipment) HOW? (Support processes, procedures and methods) WITH WHOM? (Competence, skills and training) WHAT RESULTS? (materials & equipment) INPUT OUTPUT

13. PROCEDURE IT IS SYNONYM TO TASK. IT IS A WAY IN WHICH ONE WORKS TO ACCOMPLISH A TASK. IT IS A SPECIFIC SET OF INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETING A PARTICULAR TASK WITHIN A PROCESS.

14. STEPS THESE ARE SPECIFIC ACTIONS THAT NEED TO BE PERFORMED, WHILE ELEMENTS ARE THE COMPONENTS THAT SUPPPORT AND CONTRIBUTE TO THE EXECUTION OF THOSE STEPS. TOGETHER, THEY FORM A PROCESS, WHICH IS A STRUCTURED AND ORGANIZED SET OF STEPS AND ELEMENTS.
