Problem-solving skills 1. Getting started try a simpler case draw a diagram represent with model act it out 2. Working on the problem visualise work backwards reason logically conjecture work systematically look for a pattern trial and improvement 3. Going further generalise verify prove 4. Concluding communicate findings evaluate © University of Cambridge
