Reference

We can learn the problem solving frameworks from some different sources such as:

• From formal training
• From reading books
• From people in network
• From internet research
• From projects (lessons-learned)
• From teaching (feedback)

Applying the knowledge and the experiences to a real project could be the most effective way of leaning (i.e., lessons-learned). However before applying, we need to understand the problem solving frameworks in deep, and digest the understandings with our own words.

Researching on internet could be easiest and fastest way, however, it could lead to a partial understanding. If you want to understand the problem solving framework overall, reading books could be the best way. There are many books in market. And here is the list of books I would recommend as references to the problem solving frameworks.
