LCD to Problem Statement

1 The Process

Describe the problem. This may be done with one sentence or multiple sentences. Make sure to include the important nouns, verbs, and adjectives.

2 LCD - Least Common Determinator

Note: Determinator is a new word, created by your instructor. I call such words or phrases, “Brunelle-isms”

Make a list of each type of word (noun, verb, adjective) and identify the ones that are critical for defining the problem. Your research must support each selection.

Using the LCDs, form a more simple and concise Problem Statement.

Make sure to leave out the fuzzy aspects typical of first attempts at this, such as

Some people - NO which people, how many? 54%?
May suffer from - NO they must suffer, how badly? Research!
Inefficient - NO Identify what is exactly wrong!
