Trial Study of the Method to Collect Primary Sources for Problem Discovery at Field Study

Abstract

Members who driving the innovative business are required to discover and define problems from collected primary sources on their fields. Nevertheless the skills for discovering and defining are depended on the personal experiences and problem consciousness, the project studies and the PBL etc. which are for engineering education at the universities mostly focus on the skills for solving problems. In this study, we proposed the method of collecting primary sources with consciousness of decoupling both primary sources and interpretation, for field studies of discovering the problem. Under the consideration of the relationship with Profiling management of P2M, we discussed the usefulness of the method through the trial experiment.
