Stating and Restating the problem

• The problem statement and restatement technique also helps evolve the understanding of the problem.

• First write a statement of the problem, no matter how vague.

• Then use various triggers محفزات to help identify the true problem.

• The triggers are:

• Place emphasis on different words in the statement and ask questions about each emphasis.

• Replace one word in the statement with a substitute that explicitly defines the word to reframe the problem.
