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.

In order to move to a 1:1 environment, I think Bring Your Own Device “BYOD” is critical because it allows you to leverage funds more effectively to get devices in the hands of ALL students. Those that can provide, do; those who are unable, can use a device provided by the school. To build capacity in my new school, we’ve presented this concept at parent “meet-and-greets,” student meetings, and school orientation. To more widely distribute the information, I recently created a video with my colleagues. We also created the following 1-pager. We are well on our way to being the first school in our urban district that is 1:1.
