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.

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

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.

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.

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.

In this learning activity you'll read about the history of one of the world's newest nations and test their knowledge with a short quiz.

You’ll explore how to use Touch Sensing to do a one directional search with a Fanuc Robot and offset of the robot’s programmed path.

We’ll explore touch sense fundamentals, touch sense commands, and break down a touch sense program.

In this interactive object, part 3 in a series, learners follow the steps of the “mathemagician” to examine four numerical curiosities: What’s Special About 1089, Perfect Squares: 1089 and 9801, The Mathematical Significance of 1776, and The Calculator Number Game. The learner will also study six number patterns and look at one remarkable table. Immediate feedback is provided.

Learners read a description of the wiring configuration of a residential Edison Wire System, which consists of a transformer secondary circuit. The circuit supplies two 115-volt sources and one 230-volt source.

Learners observe that the volume of one mole of any gas is 22.4 L at standard temperature and pressure. An illustration shows that only the mass of the molar volume differs with the identity of the gas.

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.

The student reviews definitions of stationary/stationery and completes a practice exercise.

In this animated and interactive object, the learner uses a Casio fx-260 calculator to solve for the magnitude of the resultant and of one of the component forces in a right triangle.

In this animated activity, students view how the Wheatstone bridge is used to activate a temperature alarm. A short quiz completes the lesson.

This primer introduces the student to the proper use of the "EE" function to perform calculations on very large or very small numbers.

In this learning object you'll review the components of a Brown & Sharpe Universal Cylindrical Grinder.
