Problem finding is the creative ability to define or identify a problem. The process involves consideration of alternative views or definitions of a problem that are generated and selected for further consideration. Problem finding requires individuals to set objectives, define purposes, decide what is interesting, and ultimately decide what they want to study.

The following editorial appeared in the Waterville Times last week. Apparently the author works in the schools in a professional support role. I don’t know if I am more amazed with the low-quality writing or the fact that the paper printed it without editing. In any event, this is an excellent example of how NOT to write. This article could actually be used to teach editing: i.e., what changes should be made to make it readable and understandable? Good written communication skills are a necessity.
