The Problem Solving Profile (PSP) is a tool to help evaluate and/or assess instructional projects or courses that may have technology components or are technology enabled. The PSP contains questionnaires of one page length, or a short web survey, that measures proclivities of problem solving styles that learners exhibit.
Description
This site contains PowerPoint presentations on the use of the PSP, sample PSP's, research papers on the use of the PSP and a Frequently Asked Question page (FAQ).
