Think of blogs as self-published mini articles. Share your experiences and challenges. Share your successful and failed strategies. Share your proven techniques and best practices.

Creative Problem Solving

Often, we use methods like mind mapping or brainstorming when generating ideas in the classroom -- especially when students are trying to write papers. It only makes sense to carry over these practices to employees; however, in the online environment few opportunities are given for this to occur. More efforts need to be made for connecting faculty so that these methods can even be entertained and employed.

Workplace

  • We should engage in open discussion.  Eencourage others within the workplace to do so also. 

Problem solving

When probl3ms or difficulties occur you have to identify what it is. Discuss what it is that is causing the problem. That will help with finding solutions and getting anything resolved.

I really like the idea of using questioning techniques to determine a coworkers intention with their plan. Often times the true intent or plan may be lost if things are "muddy" and asking questions can allow us to work as a team to accomplish goals. This will allow us to be innovative and constantly striving for improvement. 

Innovation

Letting students generate ideas and custom their work process will allow for more successful idea generation and project completion.  Allowing them independence will generate more creative ideas and solutions to problems, while giving them a voice.

Idea Generation

Being able to creatively discuss ideas and solutions will be important skills for my students to develop. By working through multiple ways of idea generation will allow them to think outside the box and not get discouraged throughout the creative process.  This will generate various ideas from multiple POVs allowing students to have open and creative dialogue.

problem solving

You always needs to identify the problem so you can help create a solution for the problem. You need to make sure you identify the problem but also create a plan for it to. 

If I am in a group solving problems, then I will ask my group members if they have any ways to solve the problem. I will ask them for help. 

Always communicate with each other to discuss how things are going.
