Problem/ Resolution

There is always a discussion between problem/solution and problem/resolution. Sometimes students struggle with this fairly simple concept.  Whenever this happens, teachers really try and define the concepts and give several examples.
Problem - What is wrong in the book or what needs to be fixed
Solution- How the problem is fixed or solved
However, the problem is not always fixed or solved. Sometimes it is resolved. So we tell students that resolution is when something is settled or a decision has been made.  As students get older, many problems their characters face are not solved but resolved. This takes practice and there are many ways to write about this. This is one way that the concept was introduced.
