Learners examine the 10 steps of the accounting cycle. The cycle begins with the analysis of source documents and ends with the post-closing trial balance and interpreting the financial information.
In this interactive and animated object, learners examine the duty cycle of a squarewave produced by a multivibrator using a 555 IC (integrated circuit). A brief quiz completes the activity.
Students read how the Plan-Do-Check-Act Cycle is used in problem-solving and process improvement. In an interactive exercise, students organize process improvement steps following this model.
In a series of three interactive exercises, learners explore the relationship between process cycle time and defect detection, and between process cyle time and smaller batch sizes. The techniques of lean/JIT are applied to achieve the continuous improvement (kaizen) goal of reducing inventory by pursuing one-piece flow.
In this interactive lesson, learners study examples of nouns that can be counted and nouns that cannot. They then identify whether a word is a "count" or a "noncount" noun in a practice exercise.
