Learners view an animation showing the one-shot operation of a programmable logic controller.

In this learning activity you'll practice converting from one metric unit to another.

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.

Learners examine a 555 integrated circuit, which functions as a one-shot monostable multivibrator, and then test their knowledge. Immediate feedback is provided. Animations are used to show the sequential operations.

Users examine ways for students to give feedback to their instructor about what they have learned and what part of the lesson is not clear.

In this learning activity you'll determine the measurement to be made and the accuracy required.

Every speech starts with an outline. Knowing how to write one can make the difference between speech success and speech failure. In this module, we’ll explore what’s involved in creating an outline, demonstrate how to put one together, and give you examples you can use to create your own outline.

Learners examine graphs and read that the heat of fusion is the heat energy absorbed by one mole of solid as it is converted to liquid, while the heat of vaporization is the heat energy absorbed by one mole of liquid as it is converted to gas.

Students listen to three telephone messages and enter their evaluation of each one. They then read a list of guidelines for leaving effective messages.

In this interactive exercise, learners label the components of a workstation, a Windows desktop, and an application window.

Learners observe how to cascade PLC counters to extend the maximum count of one counter.

Learners study the operation of a ladder circuit in which coils on one rung control contacts in other rungs.

In this interactive game, learners answer 30 questions about early childhood education activities and skills. Up to three people can play on the game board at one time.

Students review the best practices for using a ruler and answer five basic questions.

Students read about the components of a resume and write one for personal use.

Learners study the method of using more than one track and quadrature modes to improve the resolution of an optical encoder. A brief quiz completes the activity.

Learners view a horizontal curve and mouse over the diagram to read descriptions of its components and related equations.

Learners follow steps to trace logic signals from the inputs of several interconnecting logic gates to one output.

In this video, you’ll explore the engine lathe, its basic components, and you’ll learn to operate its machine controls.
