Describe the Problem#

Tools used:

  • mind maps

For Unit 1#

Once we have established that the a digital solution is applicable to the problem, it is important to have a clear understanding of what the problem is.

We use the project mind map to decompose the problem. Our first step is to describe the problem with a problem statement.

Problem statement

For Units 2 to 4#

In addition to the Unit 1 requirements, you must incorporate the problem’s data driven nature as part of the problem description.

Unit 2 subject matter covered:

  • understand the nature of data-driven problems

  • understand the difference between data, information and wisdom
