Problematization It is the act of knowing in concrete situations It is the reflection on the content of an act itself in order to act better within the framework of reality It requires: Critical reasoning of reality Attitude towards the transformation of this reality

“I woke up with palpitations and chest pressure this morning. It lasted for about 10 minutes.
