the problem - solving checklist outlines three steps for using critical thinking to solve problems. what are the three steps?
a (1) think critically about the problem, (2) create an action plan, (3) compare and contrast possible solutions
b (1) describe the problem, (2) identify facts and details, (3) define the solution
c (1) define the problem, (2) identify available solutions, (3) select your solution
d (1) think about possible solutions, (2) select your solution, (3) review the details of the problem

Explanation:

• Question 16: Semantic encoding is related to the meaning of words. Visual encoding is about visual images, acoustic encoding is about sound, and effortful encoding is a more general term for encoding that requires effort.
• Question 17: The problem - solving process typically starts with defining the problem, then identifying available solutions, and finally selecting a solution. Option A has steps that are not in the typical order. Option B has steps that are not the standard problem - solving steps. Option D has an incorrect order.

Answer:

• Question 16: B. Semantic encoding
• Question 17: C. (1) define the problem, (2) identify available solutions, (3) select your solution
