Abstract:

The analysis and resolution of many ergonomics problems has been widely reported in the literature and in presentations at technical and professional meetings. What has not been explored as thoroughly is the process by which those problems are approached and the process which is followed in resolving the problems. From the articles and presentations, there does not appear to be a uniformly consistent approach. These panelists will discuss their process of solving ergonomics problems, including the techniques and resources utilized.

Abstract:

High-quality children's literature that is captivating for both students and teachers can be used to develop process skills and essential knowledge in children. The provocative power of a “good read” is limitless. Listening to or reading a good book allows all of us, young and old, to think, reason, solve problems, compare and contrast, critique, and communicate in both old and new ways. The educational potential of a well-executed children's story can change how teachers plan their curricula.

Abstract:

As a classroom teacher, I have struggled to find a solid approach to problem solving in mathematics. Most commercial teacher's manuals and books for teaching problem solving suggest practices that I feel are contrived and do not reflect real-life situations; moreover. I have found little connection between the proposed lessons in these books and students' success with problem solving.

Abstract:

This study examined how the landscape studio has supported scholarly problem-solving pedagogy. Examination was limited to studio-educators’ published pedagogical research on problem-solving topics and on landscape architecture students’ preferences for solving studio-based problems. A unique multi-method research approach was used to assess the scholarly rigor and breadth of 467 academic articles published between 1997 and 2008 in Landscape Journal, Landscape Research, and Landscape Review. Scholarly rigor was assessed using Boyer’s model of scholarship, Cross and Steadman’s multiple scholarships of teaching, Weimer’s scholarly work on teaching and learning, and Groat and Wang’s architectural research methods. Content analysis was used to catalogue the breadth of problem-solving tools, techniques and theories mentioned in the articles. Research questionnaires, one-on-one interviews, focus groups and formal project presentations surveyed students’ problem-solving preferences. Seventy-eight first and final year students at Edinburgh College of Art, Scotland and Washington State University, United States participated. Data were tested to determine whether what studio-educators claimed in the articles were supported by landscape students’ preferences for solving studio-based problems. Results found 56 articles possessed characteristics of scholarly work on teaching and learning and advanced problem-solving knowledge. Twenty-two different problem-solving tools, techniques or theories were mentioned in the articles. Students independently reported a preference for using 20 of the 22 problem-solving approaches. Strongly shared approaches involved cultural awareness and site visits. Approaches recommended by educator-authors, but not preferred by students, involved the environment, teamwork and innovation. Further research may be needed to explain these differences. In conclusion, the landscape studio has supported scholarly problem-solving pedagogy through studio-educators’ pedagogical research published in discipline-based journals and students’ preferences for solving studio-based problems. This study is significant in its use of multi-method approaches to examine scholarly research and teaching. In the future, educator-authors may use information contained in this study to strengthen their teaching and scholarship.

Abstract:

The present research explores the possibility of differentiating problem-solving operations generating success and difficulty to spellers at kindergarten and Grade 1. Four kindergarten girls and four kindergarten boys were identified in each of three schools. Two boys and two girls believed by their teachers to be advanced in spelling development and two boys and two girls perceived by their teachers to be delayed in this regard constituted the sample. The Dionne observation table was used to enrich the data collection methodology used by Case by recording, in individual sessions, all verbal and non-verbal operations performed by each of the subjects while attempting the research tasks in June of the kindergarten year, during the first week of February of Grade 1, and during the last week of May of Grade 1. Visual protocols, verbatim transcripts, and photocopies of invented spellings produced provided the experimental data. Based on the literature and on the protocols collected, the researcher constructed coding grids to describe 32 data related operations and 24 cognitive control related operations observed during the invented spellings of the target words. The two grids were used to analyze the invented spelling processes of the 19 subjects for whom there was complete data from all three data collection sessions. Videotapes were replayed as often as required to complete the coding grids. Differences in relative frequency distributions of use of each operation were calculated by ability and gender. Differences in progression over time between three data collection points within a one year time frame were examined for all subjects, for subjects by ability group, and for subjects by gender group. A difference of 25% or more was established as a discerning pattern for the purpose of the research. Strong and weak spellers used the same data related operations when inventing spellings. The sequence in development was the same for both groups, but operations emerged at a faster pace in strong spellers. Patterns of differences by ability were discerned for most consonant, vowel, and meaning related operations. Patterns of differences by gender emerged for only two data related operations--3-consonant blend and -ing ending. Patterns of differences by ability were discerned for some cognitive control operations in all five categories established during coding: Response style, focus of attention, articulation of plan, memory, and automatic production. No patterns of differences by gender were discerned. The Dionne Observation Table offered an elegant elaboration to verbal protocols as a means of interpreting cognitive processes, especially for subjects at the interrelational and early dimensional stages of thought for whom cognitive developmental limitations affect verbal protocol productions. Through the interpretation of cognitive operations made possible by its use, the extent of progress made by weak spellers in both data related and cognitive control related operational use has been underscored. The research opens an avenue for exploration of the extent to which operations can be taught to children in this young age group. (Abstract shortened by UMI.)

Abstract:

The present study addressed the lack of cognitive assessment instruments in the educational settings of adolescent and young adult students who are incarcerated in juvenile correctional institutions. The purpose of the study was to develop and validate a verbal problem solving questionnaire. The design of the Everyday Problem Questionnaire (EPQ) was based on a model and testing method for assessing cognitive development throughout the life-span. The study was conducted in two phases. In the first phase, the Everyday Problem Questionnaire was developed from descriptions of everyday life problems that were submitted in writing by 47 randomly-chosen males, aged 18 through 24 years, who were incarcerated in a high security state youth correctional institution. A second group of 25 randomly-chosen students from the same institution, rated the life problems on four criteria: (a) typicality, (b) personal experience, (c) interest level and, (d) level of difficulty. Nine problems were included in the final Everyday Problem Questionnaire. In the second phase, the new Everyday Problem Questionnaire was administered to a group of 54 randomly-chosen late adolescent and young adult males who were incarcerated. Four commonly used measures of cognitive ability and achievement were also administered, the Kaufman Adolescent and Adult Intelligence Test, the Test of Non-verbal Intelligence-Two, Second Edition, and the Woodcock-Johnson Tests of Achievement-Revised for reading and mathematics. The Everyday Problem Questionnaire responses were scored by three educators from the institution, who received training on an experimental scoring system that was a model of problem solving that included five steps. The other measurements were scored by a professional school psychologist. In the analyses of the first phase ratings indicated that the EPQ was shown to consist of life problems representative of adolescents and young adult males who have been incarcerated. Subsequent validation of the EPQ scoring system was not successful in the second phase of the study due to inconsistent inter-rater reliability. Consequently, the instrument could not be compared with results on other tests of cognition and achievement. Specific suggestions are made for designing a more reliable and stable scoring system. Issues regarding research and institutional access to students in a high-security youth corrections institutional setting are also discussed.

Abstract:

In this chapter the authors focus on a problem-oriented view of managing innovation. In particular, they ask what it means to manage innovation well, so that innovation outcomes are enhanced. They start by briefly reflecting on the rise in value of intangibles as an asset class (notably knowledge), and by defining terms. They then briefly review selected literature on strategic management as an example of the typical manner in which innovation has been previously approached. Looking at selected macro- and micro-organizational theories the authors reflect on several shortcomings of extant literature. They then introduce the knowledge-based view and identify a particular sub-field, the problem finding/problem solving (PF/PS) perspective, as one promising way to address these issues. They identify several challenges in the present formulation of the perspective, and discuss further research opportunities. Though the PF/PS perspective presently lacks compelling empirical evidence, it shows promise for developing into a useful logic for managing and enhancing innovation.

Abstract:

This article analyses the knowledge integration in problem-solving situations which requires a high level of interaction and trust among workers. Literature review explores the main barriers associated to knowledge integration and use and even if most problem situations are solved in an unconscious way, automatically and in a few seconds, others situations requires more time, effort, teamwork, collaboration and extensive abstract knowledge. This research goal is to analyses the perceptions of the workers from Alpha Organisation. The research findings allow us to conclude that depending on the complexity of the workstation, the Operator decides if he has the knowledge and the tools to solve the problem or if he needs help from Managers. The use and share of employees' knowledge is an important factor to solve problems and strengthen performance. However, several organisational and individual barriers condition the process.

Abstract:

What can education do to foster students’ inventive design and problem-solving competencies? On the one hand, it is widely agreed that accomplishing this end is one of education’s main objectives today. On the other hand, many people regard creativity as a ‘God-given’ ability, something an individual either has or does not have but can hardly be learned or enhanced. Therefore, it is of no surprise that only little has been done to introduce the teaching of creative thinking into traditional schooling, either in K-12 education or in engineering education. In the current paper, however, I present a different viewpoint. The literature on design and problem-solving in engineering shows that while novices tend to follow a routine design approach or use the trial-and-error method, experts are likely to use domain-specific strategies, schemes and heuristics, move flexibly from one working method to another, combine given strategies in new ways, and solve problems by using shortcuts or rules-of-thumb rather than work according to a specific method. Therefore, it could be useful to teach students several heuristic methods for inventive design and problem-solving that have been used increasingly in engineering, for example, SCAMPER, TRIZ, Systematic Inventive Thinking (SIT) and the Eight-Dimensional method. This paper briefly reviews some of these methods and addresses the outcomes of several studies about teaching the methods to engineers and designers in industry, junior high school students, and science and technology teachers. The findings indicate that the participants often improved their achievements in suggesting original solutions to problems in comparison to a control group, and successfully utilized the method they had learned in their final project. The implications to engineering education are also discussed.

Abstract:

This paper presents a new modeling approach called Progressive Modeling (PM) and demonstrates it by solving the Assembly Line Balancing Type I Problem. PM introduces some new concepts that make the modeling process of large-scale complex industrial problems more systematic and their solution algorithms much faster and easily maintained. In the context of SALBP-I, PM introduces a component model to deploy the problem logic and its solution algorithm into several interacting components. The problem is represented as an object-oriented graph G (V, E, W) of vertices, edges, and workstations which enables problem solutions to start anywhere. The novel representation relaxes the only forward and backward tracking approach used in the assembly line balancing literature. A set of well-reported problems in the literature are reported and solved. The paper concludes by demonstrating the efficiency of the new modeling approach and future extensions.

Abstract:

Abstract Bi-level optimization is an emerging scope of research which consists of two optimization problems, where the lower-level optimization problem is nested into the upper-level problem as a constraint. Bi-level programming has gained much attention recently for practical applications. Bi-level Programming Problems (BLPP) can be solved with classical and heuristic optimization methods. However, applying heuristic methods, though easier to formulate for realistic complex design, are likely to be too computationally expensive for solving bi-level problems, especially when the problem has high function evaluation cost associated with handling large number of constraint functions. Thus, classical approaches are investigated in this paper. As we present, there appears to be no universally best classical method for solving any kind of NP-hard BLPP problem in terms of accuracy to finding true optimal solutions and minimal computational costs. This could cause a dilemma to the researcher in choosing an appropriate classical approach to solve a BLPP in different domains and levels of complexities. Therefore, this motivates us to provide a detailed literature review and a comparative study of the work done to date on applying different classical approaches in solving constrained non-linear, bi-level optimization problems considering continuous design variables and no discontinuity in functions.

Abstract:

The multi-objective facility layout problem is defined in the literature as an extension of the famous quadratic assignment problem (QAP). Most previous mathematical models tried to combine both the quantitative and the qualitative objectives into a single objective by using weighting factors. This paper introduces a multi-objective mathematical model and solves it using the revised Strength Pareto Evolutionary Algorithm (SPEAII). The purpose of this paper is to find an efficient set of solutions “Pareto optimal set” which could be introduced to the decision maker to select the best alternative, while considering conflicting and noncommensurate objectives. A computer program is developed to define the mathematical model, code candidate solutions into genetic form, and use Evolutionary Multi-Objective Optimization algorithms (EMO) to find the efficient set of solutions. The problem model is built according to its customized data input. The suggested model and solution algorithms are applied to a wide set of different benchmark problems. Results showed the superiority of the suggested models and algorithms in terms of the quality of solution and objective space exploration.
