AD238: Designing Problems in Problem-Solving Approaches

Session 1: 24 Mar 2025 (Mon)  1830 hrs - 2130 hrs Mode: Face-to-face on SUSS campus   Session 2: 22 Sep 2025 (Mon)  1830 hrs - 2130 hrs Mode: Face-to-face on SUSS campus

Course Level:  Intermediate Target Participants:  Associates and Faculty

Registration:  Invited Associates / Faculty will receive the registration details via email from TLC approximately four weeks before workshop.

Synopsis 

This course will equip participants with the skills to distinguish different problem types, master the 3C3R problem design model, and implement a 9-step problem design process. These conceptual frameworks have been translated into clearly defined stages which participants can use to conduct front-end analysis, generate and refine problems, and perform problem calibration and integration. Through guided hands-on activities, participants will be able to design problems that are effective for problem-based learning.

Learning Outcomes 

At the end of the workshop, participants should be able to:

1. distinguish different problem types using the characteristics of problems in problem-solving approaches
2. master the 3C3R problem design model
3. describe the 9-Step problem design process in 3 stages
4. carry out front-end analysis
5. generate and refine the problem
6. perform problem calibration and integration
