What is problem solving?
Problem-solving
is a mental process that involves discovering, analyzing and solving problems.
The ultimate goal of problem-solving is to overcome obstacles and find a
solution that best resolves the issue.
The best
strategy for solving a problem depends largely on the unique situation. In some
cases, people are better off learning everything they can about the issue and
then using factual knowledge to come up with a solution. In other instances,
creativity and insight are the best options.
The Steps in
Problem-Solving
In order to
correctly solve a problem, it is important to follow a series of steps. Many
researchers refer to this as the problem-solving
cycle, which includes developing strategies and organizing knowledge.
While this cycle is portrayed sequentially, people rarely follow a rigid series
of steps to find a solution. Instead, we often skip steps or even go back
through steps multiple times until the desired solution is reached.
1. Identifying the Problem: While it may seem like an obvious step, identifying
the problem is not always as simple as it sounds. In some cases, people might
mistakenly identify the wrong source of a problem, which will make attempts to
solve it inefficient or even useless.
2. Defining the Problem: After the problem has been identified, it is
important to fully define the problem so that it can be solved.
3. Forming a Strategy: The next step is to develop a strategy to solve the problem. The approach
used will vary depending upon the situation and the individual's unique
preferences.
4. Organizing Information: Before coming up with a solution, we need to first
organize the available information. What do we know about the problem? What do
we not know? The more information that is available, the better prepared
we will be to come up with an accurate solution.
5. Allocating Resources: Of course, we don't always have unlimited money, time
and other resources to solve a problem. Before you begin to solve a problem,
you need to determine how high priority it is. If it is an important problem,
it is probably worth allocating more resources to solving it.
6. Monitoring Progress: Effective problem-solvers tend to monitor their progress as they work
towards a solution. If they are not making good progress toward reaching their
goal, they will reevaluate their approach or look for new strategies.
7. Evaluating the Results: After a solution has been reached, it is important to
evaluate the results to determine if it is the best possible solution to the problem.
