Ethical Simulation Problem
This problem is assessed:
Consider this problem: A man has
three animals on a riverbank: a dog,cat, and a mouse. The man needs to get all
three animals to the other side of the river, but can only carry himself and
one animal at a time.
The man cannot leave the dog and
cat together because the dog will eat the cat. similarly, if the man leaves the
cat and mouse together, the cat will eat the mouse.
Help the man figure out a system
for transporting each of the animals across the river without any of them
getting eaten.
Consider the following questions:
Do you use a problem solving process?
*How did you interpret the
problem?
*What strategy did you use and how
did you evaluate your progress?
*Did you encounter any obstacles
while solving the problem?
*Were you aware of this thought
process as you worked through the problem?
I think you have to take the cat
first. What do you think?
