Problem solving is a mental process that
involves discovering, analyzing and
solving problems.
 Firstly
you need to identify and name the
problem, so that you can find an
appropriate solution.
 Seeing
the problem in different ways is
likely to help you find an effective
solution.
 Once
you have thought about the
problem you can identify your goals.
 When
you have decided what your goal
is you need to look for possible solutions.
 From
the list of possible solutions you can
sort out which are most relevant to your
situation and which are realistic and
manageable.
 Once
you have selected a possible
solution you are ready to put it into
action.
 Just
because you have implemented the
best possible solution, you may not have
automatically solved your problem, so
evaluating the effectiveness of your
solution is very important.
If the solution was successful in helping you to solve
your problem and reach your goal, then you know
that you have effectively solved your problem.
 Creative
problem solving is a mental
process of creating a solution to a
problem. It is a special form of problem
solving in which the solution is
independently created rather than
learned with assistance.
Because children's play is spontaneous and freely
chosen, it is often quite imaginative. Indeed, it is
sometimes described as creativity.
Problems and solutions are part of daily
life.
Instead of running from them, let’s make a
solutions.
Most people spend more time and energy going around problems
than in trying to solve them.
-Henry Ford
