The document outlines an exercise for students to work in teams to repair a malfunctioning computer using the problem solving method. It describes the steps of the problem solving method which include gathering information, diagnosing the problem, developing a solution, writing a plan of action, executing the plan, testing the solution, and documenting it. Students will be divided into groups, work to determine the problem and solution, and complete the repair while applying the problem solving process. The goal is for students to gain experience using this method and working collaboratively to solve problems.

The goal of this lesson is to give you the experience of working together as a student led team engaging in the problem solving repair strategy. You will work as a team, given a malfunctioning computer and asked to repair it using the problem solving method. You will need to understand the dilemma, formulate a strategic plan, and think about the consequences (including time and money) before beginning the repairs. The instructor will introduce the basic method and structure of the problem solving method and the materials you will be working with. Each group will delegate the actions that need to be taken among its members while monitoring each other to make sure you are successful. Gathering Information: The class will be divided up into small groups and you are all asked to determine the problem, devise a solution and decide on a plan of action. This requires you to look for the causes of the problem, and diagnose its true cause. Next you will need to develop and define possible acceptable solutions, including identifying the parts needed, locating them and the costs involved. Diagnosing the problem: The exercise will involve thinking about the problem while keeping an open mind and not jumping to conclusions before all the information is accumulated. This requires you to explore the dimensions of the malfunctioning equipment, consider all the possible causes and diagnose the true cause. Developing a solution: Next you will need to develop and define possible and acceptable solutions. This includes identifying the parts needed, locating them and determining the costs involved before obtaining them. An acceptable solution needs to be affordable and able to be completed within a reasonable amount of time. You may have to contact the customer if you havent determined the maximum budget you have for the repair. Identifying the problem as too expensive may be an acceptable solution in that it will give the customer the information needed to justify replacing the unit with a new one. Write a plan of action: Developing and listing all the steps in a plan before taking any action is vital to an efficient repair. This will prevent wasting time and resources on blind alleys while greatly improving the possibilities of a successful outcome. Executing the plan: This will include obtaining the tools and parts, if necessary. Preparing the work space and carrying out the steps. The groups must share in the tasks to give every member a role in the exercise. Testing the solution: Each group must test the repair or replaced parts to make sure the problem is resolved. This exercise in self direction will improve your ability to use the problem solving method and work with others effectively in the future. The lesson will be successful if you all take ownership in the process and execution of the lesson while you are learning not only problem solving but how to work with others in a group. Documenting the Solution: You need to record the steps and the fix you applied. This is in case the problem occurs again, results in unintended consequences that require changes to the solution.
