Which problem-solving approach did you select and why?

Assignment 3b.3: Thinking and Language Field Assignment Critical thinking requires adaptive, flexible approaches to thinking and problem solving. The following exercise offers practice in critical thinking, new insights into common college-related problems, and a quick review of terms and concepts discussed in the textbook. Be sure to use the major problem-solving approaches discussed in the text- algorithms (step-by-step procedures that guarantee solutions) and heuristics (shortcuts to possible solutions based on previous knowledge and experience). You must answer ALL THREE PROBLEMS in your submission. This assignment is not meant to choose only one of the three. Please be sure to use 2-3 sentences to answer each question and check your work for spelling and grammatical errors. Problem 1 It is the end of the semester and you have a term paper due Friday. Thursday night you try to print your previously prepared paper, and you can’t find the file on your computer. What was your first step in approaching the problem? Which problem-solving approach did you select and why? Did you experience mental sets, functional fixedness, confirmation bias, the availability heuristic, and the representativeness heuristic during the problem-solving process? Problem 2 The financial aid office has denied your student loan until you verify your income and expenses from last year. You need to find all your pay stubs and receipts. What was your first step in approaching the problem? Which problem-solving approach did you select and why? Did you experience mental sets, functional fixedness, confirmation bias, the availability heuristic, and the representativeness heuristic during the problem-solving process? Problem 3 Describe a real-life issue you are currently facing. This should be a recent issue (i.e., it occurred this week or in the past 2-3 weeks). What was your first step in approaching the problem? Which problem-solving approach did you select and why? Did you experience mental sets, functional fixedness, confirmation bias, the availability heuristic, and the representativeness heuristic during the problem-solving process?
