In this workshop participants learn a six-step approach to problem solving, as well as to explore their ability to think outside of the box and think creatively. Participants will apply this six-step process to solve a real-life problem as well as a process problem that could occur in a micro technology fabrication facility. In solving the problems, participants will use a variety of problem-solving tools such as brainstorming, flowcharts, proper questioning techniques, scatter plots and control charts. This workshop will help instructors learn how to incorporate problem-solving into any STEM curriculum.
