How to improve problem solving skills
Define the problem clearly.
This is an outwardly simple but vital step. If you don't properly understand the problem, your solutions may be ineffective or fail entirely.

* Give the problem a clear, defined, and challenging label so that the challenging factor can be dealt with quicker and easier. For example, maybe you are looking at the size of the animal that you want to keep.;
* There are many students in the social sciences world who struggle to understand the concept of problem solving. Understand the problem and clearly define it to the best of your ability.;
* To define the problem you will have to ask questions and look at different angles. For example, is there one problem or actually several? Can you restate the problem in your own words? By spending time with the problem you will better understand it and be equipped to generate solutions.;
* You should be able to define it by looking at it from the other side of the window. Does your problem have three parts? Make sure to make the answer clear and easy to understand.;
