In this module, we'll be introducing you to SIPOC, a powerful tool that can help you improve your business processes. It's a high-level process mapping tool that helps you identify the key components of a process and how they relate to each other. SIPOC diagrams are often used in Six Sigma and Lean methodologies, but they can be useful for any process improvement initiative. We’ll explain the key SIPOC components and demonstrate how to build one. Then, we’ll walk through a few scenarios and let you build your own.
In this interactive object, learners examine the five problem-solving steps of Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and Control. Some of the most common measures and tools are listed for each step.
Learners view videos of law enforcement and corrections officers describing their jobs and the opportunities in their fields. Because this object contains large video files, it is best viewed using a high band width connection. Low band widths will result in longer download time and video delays.
Robotic welding is an increasingly popular tool used in industrial welding applications. Knowing how to program the robot is key. Explore how to improve your programming skills by using calls and unconditional jumps in this learning activity.
Do you hate doing homework? Do you think it’s a waste of your time? Are you looking for a better way?
We’ve got you. In this video, you’ll explore how using the homework strategy can improve your studying techniques, make your studying strategies more effective, and reduce the amount of time wasted by trying to memorize your textbooks. We can help!
School or work stressing you out? Never feel like there are enough hours in the day? Improve your time management skills and get more time back for you.
In this interactive learning object, learners follow a strategy for identifying specific and general topics to improve their ability to find the main idea of a passage.
Robotic welding is an increasingly popular tool used in industrial welding applications. Knowing how to program the robot is key. Explore how to improve your programming skills by using if-then-else, calls and unconditional jumps in this learning activity.
Robotic welding is an increasingly popular tool used in industrial welding applications. Knowing how to program the robot is key. Explore how to improve your programming skills by using if-then-else, calls, unconditional jumps, and counters in this learning activity.
Learners listen to an office conversation. They then review tips on how to improve the feedback they give others and practice writing a response based on the conversation they heard.
In this interactive object, students complete progressively more difficult exercises as a way to improve their ability to recognize resistor color code values.
In this animated object, learners examine ink trapping, a key technique used by printers to improve the quality of products and to increase efficiency.
In a drag-and-drop exercise, the learner considers various food items and determines if they improve brain functioning. This learning object is designed for instructional assistants.
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.
