It can also be about breaking up different phases of learning \u2013 for example, moving from concept to case study to practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Modularity allows us to better configure our solutions to the needs of our learners. It also helps us to make the learning content more consumable over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, there is a lot of research that suggests that the so-called \u201cspacing\u201d of learning significantly improves the retention and proficiency of learners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-delivery-model\">Delivery model<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Today\u2019s learner-needs require that we have more than one option. Whether it\u2019s traditional classroom learning, virtual learning, eLearning or blended approaches, we need to give our learners flexibility and access.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-learning-approach-itself\">The Learning Approach itself<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All learners learn differently. We have also seen generational shifts in learning approaches. Ultimately, our approaches to learning need to be chosen very carefully to ensure people are engaged, based on who our target audience is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They may include the more traditional systematic teaching, experiential learning or eLearning, for example.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With the <em>Problem Solving Learning Path<\/em> we are aiming to hit all 3: modularity, providing easy access, and a mix of systematic teaching and gamification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-learners-will-learn\">What learners will learn<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In today\u2019s world of increasing complexity and, of course, less time \u2013 problem solving skills are at a premium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, in many organizations, that don\u2019t have a common problem-solving approach, what we often find is a lot of trial-and-error leading to wasted time and effort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"470\" src=\"https:\/\/kepner-tregoe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/MicrosoftTeams-image-4-1024x470.png\" alt=\"trial-and-error leading to wasted time and effort\" class=\"wp-image-19288\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kepner-tregoe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/MicrosoftTeams-image-4-1024x470.png 1024w, https:\/\/kepner-tregoe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/MicrosoftTeams-image-4-300x138.png 300w, https:\/\/kepner-tregoe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/MicrosoftTeams-image-4-768x353.png 768w, https:\/\/kepner-tregoe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/MicrosoftTeams-image-4.png 1518w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Problem Solving Learning Path provides a foundational understanding of the KT methodologies of <em>Situation Appraisal<\/em> and <em>Problem Analysis.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While <em>Situation Appraisal<\/em> is about getting clarity about the issues we\u2019re dealing with, prioritizing them and planning their resolution, <em>Problem Analysis<\/em> is about finding the cause of a problem and fixing it for good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you think about it in the form of a workflow, in an organization that has <strong>a common problem-solving approach<\/strong> you will see much more of a <em>flow<\/em>. Flow means we are following a common, integrated logic that connects people in a team and an organization. This makes the Problem Solving Learning Path a powerful foundation for creating an organization-wide problem-solving capability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But learning these thinking processes isn\u2019t as simple as looking at a diagram and then being able to go use them on the job to create tangible business results.\u00a0 So, the challenge for our learning designers was to break things down into small enough chunks so that learners could understand them even if they had only a few minutes each time they were able to learn. Then they needed to give learners opportunities to both practice individual concepts and use them in combination.\u00a0 Finally, they needed to provide opportunities to use the concepts to address real-world situations and problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The learning cycles described in part 1 of this series represent single concepts, so threading them together in a logical order helps learners to build their understanding one step at a time, as well as see how the concepts work together.\u00a0 Adding a reinforcement cycle every couple of modules provides the needed practice, and regularly promotes the application of each step on an actual business-related issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"526\" height=\"239\" src=\"https:\/\/kepner-tregoe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Picture4-3.png\" alt=\"Training reinforcement cycle\" class=\"wp-image-19246\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kepner-tregoe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Picture4-3.png 526w, https:\/\/kepner-tregoe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Picture4-3-300x136.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 526px) 100vw, 526px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The practice in the reinforcement cycle is a bit different than practice in the basic learning cycle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Learners are presented with a threaded scenario and they are asked to use the steps they just learned to move the analysis forward.\u00a0 For example, if they\u2019ve already gathered and organized data for a problem and identified some possible causes, they are next asked to test each possible cause fully, using the organized data to rule them in or out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"530\" height=\"277\" src=\"https:\/\/kepner-tregoe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Picture5-3.png\" alt=\"Practice and application cycle\" class=\"wp-image-19252\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kepner-tregoe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Picture5-3.png 530w, https:\/\/kepner-tregoe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Picture5-3-300x157.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 530px) 100vw, 530px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because learners cement their learning by \u2018doing\u2019, KT Learning Path learners complete the reinforcement cycle by applying the steps they have just practiced on their own issue.\u00a0 They are prompted with appropriate tools \u2013 job aids, worksheets, tips and hints \u2013 related to the steps they are using and reminded to share their work with the coach working with their cohort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"525\" height=\"277\" src=\"https:\/\/kepner-tregoe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Picture6.png\" alt=\"dynamic way for learners to more fully understand the concepts\" class=\"wp-image-1185\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kepner-tregoe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Picture6.png 525w, https:\/\/kepner-tregoe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Picture6-300x158.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 525px) 100vw, 525px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Altogether, the combination of initial and reinforcing learning cycles creates a dynamic way for learners to more fully understand the concepts <em>of Situation Appraisal<\/em> and <em>Problem Analysis<\/em>, taking into account their need for flexibility and best-practices in virtual adult learning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"529\" height=\"204\" src=\"https:\/\/kepner-tregoe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Picture7.png\" alt=\"dynamic way for learners to more fully understand the KT methods\" class=\"wp-image-1188\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kepner-tregoe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Picture7.png 529w, https:\/\/kepner-tregoe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Picture7-300x116.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 529px) 100vw, 529px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even with all of that, there is still more to the KT Problem Solving Learning Path design.\u00a0 In the final edition of this blog (part 3 of 3), we will focus on the role coaching plays, even in virtual learning, to maximize these business results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-brandon-hall-award-for-excellence-in-learning\">Brandon Hall Award for Excellence in Learning<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We are excited that we can now offer the Problem Solving Learning Path to the wider market.
