Why is problem finding considered a more advanced ability than problem solving? Explain. Alternative: What is problem finding and when does it emerge? (same as below, but include young adulthood/after the formal operations stage)
What will be an ideal response?
Answer: When problem finding, a person anticipates something that might go wrong and proactively figures out a way to prevent the problem. It requires acquired knowledge and skills as well as creativity. This often requires years of experience and is often the basis of inventions. The steps involved in problem finding, such as taking risks, seeing things in completely different ways, are considered.
