According to my notes, a problem statement should include a problem to be solved, research, and conclusions. I don't understand the research and conlcusions part. Good question, Katie. I had hoped that one of your classmates might take it on, but, at this point, it appears that none of them will, or if they do, it will be too late to be particularly helpful to you or your team. It takes me a while to format a response for this forum, and I may reply to you directly by e-mail right away and post to the NetForum when I have more time.
Solutions are methods for addressing a conclusion.
Students should study more. Students should ask more questions. Students should read the material more thoroughly. Instructors should schedule a review session before each test. Students should take fewer classes.
