Problem Solving
It was my DiTEC project submission, since I hadn’t done any previous project submissions, I
underestimated the workload and pushed everything to the final week. While debugging the code
I came across too many Errors which really concerned me whether I could Complete the project
on time. I had to work from Day to late in the night. There was a lot of stress and Self-Doubt.
TIP: If you find it difficult to separate your emotions from the problem, try to complete this
step from the perspective of an impartial friend.
Problem Solving
2 Develop Multiple Solutions
Write down at least three solutions to your problem. Without thinking about alternative solutions,
we often get stuck on what worked in the past, or the first idea that comes to mind. There are
usually many solutions to a problem, and our first ideas aren’t always the best.
Break Down the important parts of your Assignment and finish them early on.
Complete the work ahead so it provides additional time for testing and reviewing.
During this stage, you might come up with new solutions, or find that a combination of multiple
solutions is better than any one idea.
TIP: If you’re having a hard time thinking of strengths and weaknesses for each solution,
ask yourself these questions:
When will you implement your solution? Be How will you know when to use your solution?
specific. List specific warning signs, triggers, or other
specific events that will tip you off.
List the specific steps you will take to implement your solution.
Breaking Down the project particulars to have track on what I’ve completed.
TIP: If your solution requires a lot of time or effort, try to break the process into small steps.
It’s easier to follow through with several small steps, rather than one giant task.

5 Review
Finally, after implementing your solution, you will review what worked and what didn’t. Even
if your problem was a one-time situation, there are often broader lessons to be learned. Take
a moment to reflect on your problem and how you handled it.
If you could go back in time, what would you change about how you handled the problem?
I’d prioritize my work and be much more prepared for testing and final reviewing.
What advice would you give to someone else who was dealing with the same problem?
