Problem-based learning. A PBL group at Sydney Dental Hospital. Problem-based learning ( PBL) is a teaching method 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 ...
Problem solving is the process of achieving a goal by overcoming obstacles, a frequent part of most activities. Problems in need of solutions range from simple personal tasks (e.g. how to turn on an appliance) to complex issues in business and technical fields. The former is an example of simple problem solving (SPS) addressing one issue ...
Optimal control problem benchmark (Luus) with an integral objective, inequality, and differential constraint. Optimal control theory is a branch of control theory that deals with finding a control for a dynamical system over a period of time such that an objective function is optimized. [1] It has numerous applications in science, engineering ...
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 ...
Problem-solving therapy (PST) is a form of psychotherapy. It may help you develop coping skills to manage upsetting life experiences. “It’s the notion of focusing on the problem in the moment ...
A new study found that aerobic exercise helped improve cognitive function in young and middle-aged people. The researchers found the study participants' problem-solving skills improved after they ...
Decision problem. A decision problem has only two possible outputs ( yes or no) on any input. In computability theory and computational complexity theory, a decision problem is a computational problem that can be posed as a yes–no question of the input values. An example of a decision problem is deciding by means of an algorithm whether a ...
In English, TRIZ is typically rendered as the theory of inventive problem solving. [3] [4] TRIZ developed from a foundation of research into hundreds of thousands of inventions in many fields to produce an approach which defines patterns in inventive solutions and the characteristics of the problems these inventions have overcome.
