Choose and analyze a problem, concluding with a proposed solution. In doing so, please incorporate the steps found in "A Template for Problem-Solving" as clearly as possible in assessing, analyzing, addressing, and hopefully solving your problem.

It is best to choose an everyday problem--or a recurring problem or issue--that you are dealing with so that you can see the practical application and usefulness in analyzing a problem methodically and using critical thinking in working toward a strategy for solving it. It is certainly best to avoid problems over which you have no control at all.
