Learn to tackle problems the IDEAL way
(taken from the back cover)
Identify, Define, Explore, Anticipate and Act, Look and Learn - that is the successful problem solving strategy developed and refined by psychologists John Bransford and Barry Stein.
This timely revision spells out the IDEAL framework in detail, demonstrating its effectiveness in tackling problems at school, at work, or at home. It incorporates a wealth of recent research on thinking and creativity and adds many new exercises, puzzles, brain teasers, and examples. Also included: a new chapter suggesting better ways to teach problem solving in schools and training programs.
The IDEAL Problem Solver will help you improve your memory, sharpen your critical thinking skills, generate creative solutions to problems, and communicate more effectively with a wider range of people. For students, teachers, and business people, for those who enjoy solving problems as well as those who dread facing them, it is the ideal blueprint for action.
