培養問題解決大師：第一步（1 次課程）

Topics in this class are solving word problems at 4 different levels using:
- The Think 1 method
       A method developed by Edward Zaccaro to developed to solve complex problems. 

       In this part of the class students master the concept and apply this method across practical problems. In increasing difficulty, 
       these problems train students to develop the pattern recognition and creative development necessary to solve word problems of 
       a specific type. These problems include scenarios involving division and multiplication.


- The 2-10 method 
       Another method developed by Edward Zaccaro. Students master problems involving division by breaking them into smaller, 
       easier to solve problems. Then scaling them back to the original problem for easy multiplication/division. 

This class is a ONE-TIME class which is taught through Zoom on using a drawing tablet with a black background onscreen and color for contrast and emphasis. My teaching style involves pausing for questions at select intervals, but students are always free to stop me anytime they are confused. The class will be structured with a ten minute introduction to the techniques, 20 minutes on each of the techniques and problem-solving with them with students, then ten minutes allowing the students to solve some problems on their own to cement the lessons. 

Students should be able to perform simple multiplication and division on paper and with a calculator. They should also have the ability to multiply and divide with fractions and decimals.
