2.1.4.3 Divide and conquer : Complex objects can usually be viewed
as a collection of numerous simpler objects. Decompose each activity into
tasks and sub-tasks until they are easily planned and managed (see
iterative approach).
2.1.4.4 Document as you go : Write up what you are doing at the time
you do it preferably in a word processor – note form is better than nothing.
This will make your life a lot easier when the time comes to communicate
what you have been doing.
2.1.4.5 Flexible approach : Gold stars for bashing your head against
brick walls are in short supply. Better to demonstrate an intelligent approach
to finding a way around a problem. Seek help early if you think you are lost.
2.1.4.6 Flow charts: Flow charts are a great way to clarify what you are
doing in your own mind as well as communicate this information to others
(also good for brainstorming, divide and conquer, documenting, etc.).
