Sinopsis

DAVID PARSONS has distilled eight principles of effective problem solving from a lifetime of successes and failures in a wide range of en-deavors including computer simulation, project management, manufacturing, architecture, student pranks, and soccer coaching. His eight principles advance how we think about and control our problem solving efforts. Mr. Parsons examines the barriers to effective problem solving and presents over forty strategies for overcoming these barriers. He decries the failure of traditional education to foster effective problem solving in our students, challenging educators at all levels to embrace problem-based learning. TEACHERS: This book provides practical recommendations for inte-grating strategies for effective problem solving into a problem-based learning curriculum. STUDENTS: The ideas in this book provide a bridge between academic disciplines and the realities of getting things done in the real world. PARENTS: Mr. Parsons’s guidelines for preparing children to be effec-tive problem solvers are an indispensable guide for parents as they consider options for the education of their sons and daughters.
