Design: Problem Solving Approaches
practice Case Study: Unique Problem Solving Approaches

mazeNow that you have learned about different problem solving approaches, you will create a case study about a time when you used a unique approach to problem solving. Think back to a time when you had to solve a problem in an unorthodox way. Think to yourself:

  • What was the problem?
  • How did I approach the problem?
  • Why couldn't I use a more common approach to solving the problem?
  • What was the solution to the problem?

When you have selected a scenario complete the assignment by following the directions below.

Assignment: Think about a time in your life when you used a unique approach to solving a problem. In 100 words or less describe the event. You will be graded on the following:
-Summary of problem (2 points)
-Explanation of why this problem couldn't be solved using a common approach (5 points)
-Explanation of approach used to solve the problem (5 points)
-Explanation of how the problem was solved (5 points)
-Reply post including alternate approach to solving the problem (3 points)

After you have written your case study, post it to the Unique Problem Solving Approaches drop box.
