Using self-instruction as an approach, what are the steps to teaching problem-solving skills to students?

What will be an ideal response?


Correct Answer:
Students are first taught to define the problem. Next, students identify as many solutions as possible. Then, students evaluate the potential outcomes of the possible solutions identified in the previous step. Next, students choose and implement a solution. Finally, students evaluate the outcome and begin the process over if the solution was not successful.
