MY RESEARCH CAN BE FOUND ON [] BUT I THINK THEY REMOVED IT FOR COPYRIGHTED REASONS. HOWEVER, IF YOU DID SEE IT, I KNOW MRS. MOXLEY DID, I HAD ALL OF MY RESEARCH, 8 TABLES, AND A PICTURE. I don't know why they deleted it, I worked so hard on it, and it looked so good! I wish you could have seen it! THE SIMPLE BASICS OF MY RESEARCH CAN BE FOUND ON [|&NodeID=1024]. HOWEVER, THIS PAGE DOES NOT INCLUDE MY CITATIONS BECAUSE THEY WERE ON MY WIKIPEDIA PAGE.

oh and if you need further evidence of my postage on wikipedia, because i actually did spend a lot of time on it, you can see the page where they explained the deleting of my post at []

My topic is the execution of Future Problem Solving Lynn Buchwald started FPS at CTMS in 2000. The teachers trained in the summer of 2001. Coaches look for teams that addressed the topic. They want well written steps, with a futuristic base. __Where? Where in the district did FPS first start?__ All of the schools in the district started doing FPS together, however, CTMS was the first school to be successful at it. __When? When did the first team from CTMS go to state?__ In 2002 the first FPS team went to the State Bowl Competition, and they made the stage. __Why? Why is proper execution of steps crucial to the plan?__ You need to do the steps to understand how to analyze a problem and brainstorm. __How do these kids perform these steps?__ These kids follow the six step plan, and use their research that they did previously.
 * What I already know: **
 * Who? ** A group of children (separated by age group) divided into teams for competition.
 * What? ** A scenario based problem solving method applied with certain technique. ** Where? ** All across the world, but more specifically in Texas.
 * When? ** Now!
 * Why? ** To create a general understanding of problems that could very possibly occur in future generations.
 * How? ** A method is learned and applied with the help of research on the topic and futuristic solutions.
 * __What I want to know (research questions):__ **
 * __Who? Who encouraged FPS to start at Cross Timbers?__ **
 * __What? What sort of thing do the coaches look for in a good packet?__ **

My topic is the researching of Future Problem Solving
 * My research strategy: **
 * Who? **** I’ll ask Mrs. Moxley, the FPS Coach at CTMS. **
 * What? ** Reference from the FPS website (international)
 * When? ** During class or for homework when I am behind.
 * Where? ** The CTMS and public library, on any other computer for online resources.
 * How? **** I’ll find facts about FPS that apply to the CTMS curriculum of FPS and hopefully obtain interesting facts and useful information. **
 * Key words for searching (to be used in search engines): ** “future problem solving”, “FPS”, “FPS Texas”, “Future Problem Solving State Bowl”, “Future Problem Solving Steps”

I had all of my sources on noodle tools, and I already did my wikipedia page, put me under a lie detector and I'll clear, I just didn't put my citations on the general pages. I just added them along with the information they go with.

The Cross Timbers Middle School Future Problem Solving process was introduced by Lynn Buchwald in the 2000. Coaches officially started training in the summer of 2001. All of the schools in the GCISD district activated FPS concurrently; however, CTMS was the first to be most successful at this process. "Future Problem Solving at CTMS." //Cross Timbers Middle School//. Schoolwires, Inc., 19 May 2010. Web. 20 May 2010. . The students are given a future scene, and have to completely identify 16 problems and in return 16 solutions for the chosen problem. "Future Problem Solving Program International." //Wikipedia//. N.p., n.d. Web. 13 May 2010. . The problem solving steps that the participants complete consists of a six chronological problem solving methods starting with analyzing problems, brainstorming solutions, evaluating solutions, and a plan of implementation. "Future Problem Solving Program International." //Wikipedia//. N.p., n.d. Web. 13 May 2010. . Research is a key component of the competition operations. Students at Cross Timbers are assisted in researching with the help of coach Karen Moxley, who receives some information from the annual Summer Coaches Conference as well as the State FPS program. Participants study both the topic and the futuristic aspects of the execution. The research is conducted through studying of magazine and/or news articles, with major guidance from online tools. "Future Problem Solving at CTMS." //Cross Timbers Middle School//. Schoolwires, Inc., 19 May 2010. Web. 20 May 2010. . Future Problem Solving is said to “ stimulate critical and creative thinking skills and encourages students to develop a vision for the future”, ( "FPSI Opening Doors to Standards." //FPSI//. Ossoba Studios, n.d. Web. 10 May 2010. .). It has been embraced in CTMS’ curriculum for over 8 years.
