The problem tree
• A tool to analyze complex issues
• Helps to “specify and investigate the causes
and effects of a problem” and the
“relationships between them” (1)
• It also helps to formulate, analyze, evaluate
the different solutions to the problem

The problem tree
• Problem trees are a good tool for student
group work because all students can give
different and especial contributions to the
work of the group depending on their
expertise and knowledge

The problem tree
• Asking the students to first work individually
on the trees and then work with the rest of
team members can be very valuable for
individual students because the exercise
can help them identify areas of weakness

Cooperative learning
• Invaluable to foster interdisciplinarity, higher
order thinking, and holistic knowledge
“Nothing new that is really interesting comes
without collaboration” (Watson, as cited by
Johnson, Johnson, & Smith, 1998)
