2) Deductive argument
Deductive argument is the process of reasoning from one or more general statements (premises) to reach a logically certain conclusion.
![Page 13: Reasoning](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070321/558c145ed8b42a1a148b46df/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

2) Inductive argument
Inductive reasoning (as opposed to deductive reasoning) is reasoning in which the premises seek to supply strong evidence for (not absolute proof of) the truth of the conclusion.
![Page 15: Reasoning](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070321/558c145ed8b42a1a148b46df/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Differentiate arguments of these two sorts are that;
deductive arguments claim to guarantee their conclusions, while inductive arguments merely recommend evidences.
In deductive reasoning, a conclusion is reached from general statements, but in inductive reasoning the conclusion is reached from specific examples.

Some Additional Thoughts
The creative person uses information to form new ideas.
The real key to creative problem solving is what you do with the knowledge.
Creative problem solving requires an attitude that allows you to search for new ideas and use your knowledge and experience.
Change perspective and use knowledge to make the ordinary extraordinary and the usual commonplace.

BEING MORE CREATIVE
How can we be more creative?
Jot down at least 3 ideas that come to your mind.
![Page 77: Reasoning](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070321/558c145ed8b42a1a148b46df/html5/thumbnails/77.jpg)
CREATIVE PROBLEM SOLVING PROCESS
STEP 1. State what appears to be the problem.
The real problem may not surface until facts have been gathered and
analyzed. Therefore, start with what you assume to be the problem, that can later be confirmed or corrected.
![Page 78: Reasoning](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070321/558c145ed8b42a1a148b46df/html5/thumbnails/78.jpg)
CREATIVE PROBLEM SOLVING PROCESS
STEP 2. Gather facts, feelings and opinions.
What happened? Where, when and how did it occur?
What is it’s size, scope, and severity? Who and what is affected?
Likely to happen again? Need to be corrected?
May need to assign priorities to critical elements.

CREATIVE PROBLEM SOLVING PROCESS
STEP 3. Restate the problem.
The real facts help make this possible, and provide supporting data.
The actual problem may, or may not be the same as stated in Step 1.

CREATIVE PROBLEM SOLVING PROCESS
STEP 4. Identify alternative solutions
Generate ideas. Do not eliminate any possible
solutions until several have been discussed.

CREATIVE PROBLEM SOLVING PROCESS
STEP 5. Evaluate alternatives.
Which will provide the optimum solution? What are the risks?
Are costs in keeping with the benefits? Will the solution create new problems?
