CROP site: THINK Guidance
Once found, problems need to be shaped or framed. This branch of the CROP model provides resources for ethical, critical, creative and higher order thinking. Is the question chosen the best way to set up the problem in order to solve it? Changing the question changes perspective and opportunity.
