profileTshakunte

READ !!!! The assignment is divided into Two parts, the selection of a topic (Part 1) and the essay (Part 2).

PART 1:
Scenario: Your child comes home from school with an assignment sheet for a school project. They are very excited about the project and begin work immediately, doing research on the Internet and gathering materials. You read over the assignment sheet and notice that your child is not including all of the required items in the project, and you have some ideas for how to improve the quality of the presentation. You recently read an article in a parenting magazine about the importance of a child developing responsibility for their own learning. You recall the many ways in which your parents took over your school projects. You, on the other hand, want to encourage your child's confidence in their ability to complete a project independently. The next day, you are at the grocery store when you see a parent of a student in your child's class. That parent has spent over $30 in supplies for the science project and is taking a day off work to put the pieces of the project together.

For the part 1 write a paragraph where you define the problem then analyze potential solutions to a problem in a given scenario.

PART 2:
This part asks you to apply a six-step problem-solving process to a specific problem scenario.

You will write a paper that presents a synthesis of your ideas about solving the problem using this systematic approach.

  • Review the six-step problem-solving process outlined in the link.
