A Framework for Learning Combined Problem Solving Skills

Problem-solving is an important part of a well-rounded 2nd-century education.

Researchers are continuously engaged in situations that need us to employ social skills to coordinate with other people, whether it is in schools, the workplace, or our personal lives. Tasks that need numerous students to work together to achieve a team goal, such as a final report, integrated analysis, or a joint presentation, are common in project-based work. Combined problem solving is rarely taught as a stand-alone ability separate from a specific subject. As a result, combined learning activities are frequently integrated into specialized courses of study, such as science, mathematics, and history, in school-based settings. Cooperative conflict resolution has been highlighted as a highly promising exercise that relies on a broad variety of social or cognitive abilities and can be tested in school settings where skills might well be evaluated or taught. The author of this work conducts a thorough investigation of problem-solving abilities. People with high problem-solving abilities can analyze issues, determine the severity of the situation, and weigh the pros and cons of various solutions. Employees who get problem-solving training in the workplace can collaborate more effectively with coworkers, clients, partners, or suppliers.
