Creative problem solving

looking forward to it because I know that I can do it and I will succeed. I know that I will be an asset to whatever team I begin working with because I possess several helpful and good qualities. Two of which include, my decision making and problem solving which I believe somewhat go hand in hand. I believe these are good qualities that I would bring to a team and be able to help out because you have to be able to make a decision. You cannot sit back and have everyone walk you through…

complete my work. The first few meetings I was shy and didn’t disclose too much information, either about myself or my ideas. While working on our problem, I really became passionate about the issue. I saw myself taking charge during the meetings. I still didn’t want to be noticed by the group. Then the day came that we had to present our solution to the problem. I stepped up and lead the group in front of the whole class, up in the front of the room. I feel that my leadership approach is…

Play is very important aspect of childhood, through play children learn about themselves, they learn social skills, they learn problem solving skills and get somewhat of an understanding of life. There are many types of play the two types of cognitive play is sensorimotor and symbolic play. Sensorimotor play “starts with the infants interacting with his/her environment using both objects and humans, it involves making things happen and imitating” (Gonzalez-Mena, Janet, 2014, p. 98). An example…

applications to learn the material, they gained a better mastery of the lecture. This is because the application was able to reinforce the material in a new way (Falloon, 2013). Specifically, researchers found that the application increased students’ problem solving techniques, word building skills, and math abilities. This is due to the fact that when students used interactive iPads applications to learn, they were better able to implement the material in numerous ways, and they were…

The problem based approach emphasises that new knowledge and understandings are created while working collaboratively in small groups. Students get involved in mathematical conversations. Sharing and explaining their ideas with each other is important for effective collaboration and it also helps to enhance learning (Webb and Palincsar, 1996). An action research involving middle school students (Hirschfeld-Cotton, 2008) found that encouraging students to communicate their mathematical thinking…

Understanding of multiplication facts is essential to have down by fourth grade. Knowing the times tables and being able to fluently recall immediately is needed throughout the entire year because of PA Mathematics Standards beginning with multiplication of multidigit numbers. There were students in my fourth grade classroom that had yet to be fluent with their multiplication facts, and it was necessary for them to have it down, for everyday mathematics and for the PSSA’s. I discussed with my…

Being mechanic is not an easy job and you have to be very careful all the time. A small mistake could get you in big trouble. Safety is very important because you work with machines which are very dangerous. Using right tools for right product is important because all tools have different name and number to it. To comfortably use tools, you need high skills. You can get frustrated easily because sometimes it’s hard to open something in the car. Wearing boots is important because car parts are…

Chapter 5 - Co-opetition and Coevolution 5.1 Introduction Much at times traditional cooperation fail because stakeholders think their success comes at others’ expense. Thus the solution is co-opetition, in which parties in act with partial congruence of interests. Instead of traditional cooperation, where parties come together and pretend to not compete, co-opetition uses the competitor’s strength in order to prosper together. Co-evolution occurs as a means to adapt to the environments when two…

Hard and Soft system approaches are applied by analyst and system practitioners as a tool to understand problems and situation is a specific manner. Soft systems increases the understanding of the practitioner of motivations, viewpoints, and interactions and highlights where improvement is required as it takes a holistic view depending mainly on the skills of the analyst instead of the technical or even financial value and looks for what suit all stakeholders not only a particular one of them.…

Conflict resolution is an important area to hone especially when dealing with the general public. As health care workers, dealing with the public is something we literally do every day and it isn’t uncommon for our patients to not have a firm understanding of what we do, or are supposed to be doing for them. This is a perfect storm for conflict to brew in. Patients assume and expect certain things, sometimes unreasonable things, and it is our job to be able to deal with these issues and to…
