  2. Problem-based learning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Problem-based_learning

    Problem-based learning (PBL) is a student-centered pedagogy in which students learn about a subject through the experience of solving an open-ended problem found in trigger material. The PBL process does not focus on problem solving with a defined solution, but it allows for the development of other desirable skills and attributes.

    Method. SARA consists of four stages: [3] Scanning: The officer identifies an issue and determines if it represents a problem that needs to be addressed. Analysis: The officer collects information about the problem from various sources to understand the causes and scope of the problem. Response: The officer uses the information to create and ...

  4. Trial and error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trial_and_error

    In elementary algebra, when solving equations, it is guess and check. This approach can be seen as one of the two basic approaches to problem-solving, contrasted with an approach using insight and theory. However, there are intermediate methods which for example, use theory to guide the method, an approach known as guided empiricism.

  5. General Problem Solver - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Problem_Solver

    General Problem Solver. General Problem Solver ( GPS) is a computer program created in 1957 by Herbert A. Simon, J. C. Shaw, and Allen Newell ( RAND Corporation) intended to work as a universal problem solver machine. In contrast to the former Logic Theorist project, the GPS works with means–ends analysis.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Travelling_salesman_problem

    Travelling Salesman, by director Timothy Lanzone, is the story of four mathematicians hired by the U.S. government to solve the most elusive problem in computer-science history: P vs. NP. Solutions to the problem are used by mathematician Bob Bosche in a subgenre called TSP art. See also. Canadian traveller problem; Exact algorithm

  7. Artificial intelligence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_intelligence

    Artificial intelligence (AI), in its broadest sense, is intelligence exhibited by machines, particularly computer systems.It is a field of research in computer science that develops and studies methods and software that enable machines to perceive their environment and uses learning and intelligence to take actions that maximize their chances of achieving defined goals.

  8. Creative problem-solving - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creative_problem-solving

    Creative problem-solving ( CPS) [1] is the mental process of searching for an original and previously unknown solution to a problem. To qualify, the solution must be novel and reached independently. [1] [2] The creative problem-solving process was originally developed by Alex Osborn and Sid Parnes. Creative problem solving (CPS) is a way of ...

  9. Solver - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solver

    Solver. A solver is a piece of mathematical software, possibly in the form of a stand-alone computer program or as a software library, that 'solves' a mathematical problem. A solver takes problem descriptions in some sort of generic form and calculates their solution. In a solver, the emphasis is on creating a program or library that can easily ...
