Student Hub Live: Logical problem-solving

Logical thinking has ancient roots in many cultures and is still valid in structuring our thoughts today both for ourselves and for our audiences. It’s a process of rational thinking by a step-by-step growth of ideas leading to a sensible solution to a problem.

If you have good logical thinking, you can then explain your thought process to colleagues and they can follow the thought flow. In this session, we will look at what logical problem-solving is and how it differs from creative problem-solving.

We will consider the benefits of logical thinking and how to map your thoughts using decision trees. It is also important that your logical steps are the right size for your target audience.  The use of an audience avatar can help you decide what are the vital parts of your thinking you need to share so that your reader or listener can follow your logic.
