Toolwire Week 5
Title | Discerning the Difference Between Issues and Problems |
Assessment B, Part 1: Email a Friend about the Issue/Problem of Interest | | The topic of drug abuse I see it as a problem. We all know that it is a problem that many adolescent are abusing drugs but apparently we do not see to agree on a solution. | |
Assessment B, Part 2: Email a Friend about the Issue/Problem of Interest | | I think the first problem is that many of us do not know the difference between a problem and an issue. We need to educate parents to learn how to differentiate between problem and issue. | |
Assessment B, Part 3: Email a Friend about the Issue/Problem of Interest | | Programs need to educate parents on how to deal/talk to their kids about drug abuse. parents need to teach kids about drug abuse. | |
Assessment A: Distinguishing Between an Issue and a Problem | | ☐ Mostly issues - people might have different opinions on if a single hit could hurt, much less kill you as in the commercial.
☑ It's a problem - I think most people would agree that a single use of drugs could potentially be deadly. | | | ☑ That is way too general.
☐ That is a bit general.
☐ That is a bit specific.
☐ That is way too specific. | | | ☐ We need to just try every solution we can think of. Even if they don't work, we'll make progress.
☐ We need to try to turn this problem into an issue. They are easier to handle.
☑ We need to come up with as many ways to express the problem as possible. | | | ☑ At lunch? No - we need to do a lot more research and thinking about this. Otherwise, we won't know if we are actually focused on a solution or not.
☐ Sure! We just need to think about where we want to go long term with our ideas, even if we don't have a specific solution in mind. | |
