There are definitely things I could do differently the next time I write a problem statement. First of all, I now realize that a problem statement is more than one sentence...it's the introduction to a paper/article! It needs to set the focus for the paper and it needs to get the audience into the right frame of mind for reading the paper...kind of get everyone onto the same page. Next time I write a problem statement I will do a bit more brainstorming before trying to write. I did a pretty good job of having a variety of sources to pull from when writing this, my first, problem statement, but I didn't have a great idea of how they all fit together. Now, having written the first few drafts of my problem statement, I see how the puzzle pieces fit. Everything is slowly, very slowly, starting to make more sense! Yay!
