  1. Future Problem SolvingSteps 4 and 5 Selecting Criteria and Evaluating Solutions

  2. Step 4 Purpose • Now that we have all of these solutions, how do we decide which one is the best? • Step 4 is all about evaluating solutions! • You will come up with 5 questions that you will use to decide which solution is THE BEST!

  3. Step 4 “Formula” • All questions begin with… • “Which solution will be the…” • Next you need a superlative adjective • They end in –est or start with “most” • Safest, most humane, easiest to implement • FOR “WHO” – who will benefit • SO THAT “WHY/WHAT? – how or why?

  4. Examples of Correctly Written Step Fours • Which solution will be the safest for immigrants so that fewer people are hurt by corrupt border patrols? • Which solution will be the fastest to implement for the government so that people are protected from corrupt border patrol agents? • Which solution will be the least expensive for businesses so that they will not pass their expenses on to the public?

  5. Common Questions to Ask… • Safest • Least Expensive • Fastest to implement • Easiest to implement • Most humane • Most effective • Easiest to enforce • Least intrusive • Most fair • Most humane • Most environmentally friendly

  6. Step 5 Purpose • Use your questions from Step 4 to determine THE BEST solution! • Move quickly – more than likely, you are almost out of time! • Remember… • “1” is BAD • “8” is AWESOME!!!

  7. Step 5 Procedures • Choose one person to write on the score sheet. • Throw out your “worst” 8 solutions – leaving you with your Top Eight. • Write in the numbers of the Top Eight Solutions in the boxes on the left. • Evaluate ONE question at a time and write in the scores!! 1 is BAD, 10 is AWESOME

  8. Step 5 Procedures (Cont.) • Go through the evaluation process for all five questions. 1 is BAD, 8 is AWESOME • Mathematician, it’s your time to shine! • Add all of the scores going across • The solution with the highest score becomes your Step 6 Action Plan • While three people are working on Step 6, one person finishes up Step 5 by writing in the WHAT of each Top Ten Solution

  9. Let’s Recap! • In Step 4, we come up with ___ questions to help us evaluate our __________. • We use __________ adjectives only! • We remember to use ____ and __ ____ to identify ____ and WHY/WHAT. • In Step 5, we use our ____ ____ solutions. • ___ is BAD, ___ is ________! • We evaluate ____ _______ at a time! • While everyone else works on Step 6, one person fills in the _____ for each solution.
