Question

question 1 (mandatory) (2.5 points)
the first step identified for solving complex problems is:

a) finding alternatives.

b) defining disadvantages and advantages.

c) defining the problem.

d) thinking critically.

question 2 (mandatory) (2.5 points)
evaluating the solution means:

a) discovering how well the solution actually works.

b) making adjustments to the solution.

c) talking with others about the problem.

d) finding alternatives to the solution.

Explanation:

Question 1

To solve complex problems, the first step is to clearly define what the problem is. Finding alternatives (a) comes later, defining advantages/disadvantages (b) is part of evaluating options, and thinking critically (d) is a skill used throughout but not the first step. So the correct option is c.

Evaluating a solution involves assessing its effectiveness, i.e., how well it works. Making adjustments (b) is part of refining, talking about the problem (c) is not evaluation, and finding alternatives (d) is part of generating options. So the correct option is a.

Answer:

c) defining the problem.
