Final answer:

A problem-solving workshop is more effective than traditional documents as it encourages active collaboration and knowledge sharing, helps manage collective action problems efficiently, and provides a dynamic learning experience where participants can directly engage with content.

Step-by-step explanation:

A problem-solving workshop can be more effective than traditional lessons-learned documents because it actively involves the participants in the learning process. The essence of a workshop revolves around active engagement. One effect of the team halo effect is that teams may appear to work better than they actually do (answer to question 10a). In the context of problem-solving workshops, this can be advantageous because it leverages the positive perception of teams to motivate better collaboration and knowledge sharing, possibly enhancing the overall effectiveness due to heightened participation and moral.

In contrast, if we look at question 11, it helps illustrate that collective action problems are indeed less severe in smaller groups for several reasons including less opportunity for free-riding, easier monitoring of individual behavior, and stronger peer pressure, all of which are conducive to active collaboration and accountability in a workshop setting (answer to question 11d).

It is through collaborative group activities and discussions that complex issues, such as the ones mentioned in the section about the cosmos, can be explored deeply and diverse viewpoints can be respectfully brought to the table, something that static documents simply cannot provide. In essence, a problem-solving workshop facilitates a dynamic, practical experience where participants can address real-world dilemmas, propose solutions, and directly engage with the content, making the learning experience richer and more durable (as contributors to solutions to the tragedy of the commons and the free-riding problem).
