Problem Solving
"The main
strategy that I used was trial and error in being able to get all the
animals to the other side of the river. With using this, it made it
really difficult and I had to keep track of everything that I had
previously tried. I honestly didn't try another strategy in this
problem solving situation since trial and error seemed like the best
strategy. I chose this strategy because using trial and error means
that there is room for mistake and redo along many different steps,
the difficult part comes into remembering the steps until you figure
it out.
With
trial and error, you of course run in to a few different obstacles
such as repeating mistakes or losing track of what worked. I ran into
both of these. I would get far enough to having each animal on the
opposite side of the river, but then I'd forget what steps had gotten
me as close as I was before I got stuck. I also found myself taking
steps that I had previously taken which I found didn't work.
This
problem solving simulation only took me one try since I had
previously done this exact one. The first time I tried to solve this
problem though, it took me around seven to ten tries."
