Document Summary

1: final goal state: ex: getting a 10/10 on an assignment, problem: the gap which separates where you are from where you want to be, givens, info, and rules that place constraints on problems. A heuristic is to talk about the weather instead of talking about drake"s music. Algorithm: always lead to the solution; most problems do not always have an algorithm (there isn"t always one correct way to solve a problem) Judgement or evaluation: figuring out with solution is the best or a combining of good solutions. Well-defined problem: there is only one correct solution; only one path to the goal (algorithm or formula to get to the goal) Contains all the givens of a problem and the relationship among the givens. Ex: there are 3 women: joan, patty, and sandy and they have 3 children: sam, louis, and dave. High group intelligence occurs when people in the group are aware of each other other"s feelings and moods.
