Answer 2

Answer:

The Problem, Alternatives, Criteria, Evaluation, Decision model (PACED) was designed to solve problems in a rational, systematic way. It involves five steps:

1. Define the problem: what is our exact problem, i.e. not the symptoms, but the disease (the cause, root).
2. List the alternatives: what are our available options to solving the problem.
3. Select the criteria: what exact things are important in order to solve this problem.
4. Evaluate the alternatives: which alternatives meet the criteria (+), which don't (-).
5. Make a decision: add the plus signs to determine which alternative satisfies the most criteria.
