Excerpt from Problem-Solving or Practice in Thinking
Need of training in both short problem - solving and prolonged patient thinking - The relative proportion of large and small problems in life will influence our plans for organizing opportunities for problem-solving in school. It is my impression that the small, short problems play such a prominent part in the daily life of most persons that we are justified in organizing in school thousands of such problems, each of which may consume only from one to ten minutes in its solution: At the same time we should provide for solution large problems which may puzzle the students for one hour or many hours, and thus train them to do the prolonged, patient thinking that is required in the larger, longer problems of later life.
