Feel free to post or publish as you wish.  It has served my students
pretty well over the years.  Here is the short version that lives in each
student's notebook (in big letters): 

Problem Solving Strategy:
(1) Sketch situation
(2) Identify data
(3) Identify outcome(s)
(4) Select relationship(s)
(5) Plan solution(s)
(6) Execute solution(s)
(7) Verify solution(s)

Best wishes,

Larry
