By focusing on gear design and materials,as well as optimizing torque ratios, the Lean Six Sigma approach enabled the team to propose aredesign that improved energy transfer, reduced downtime, and enhanced the tool's lifespan.Addressing these root causes through Lean Six Sigma not only improved the power drill'sefficiency but also provided valuable insights into the importance of systematic analysis in productdevelopment.

IntroductionGenerative AI (GenAI) has fundamentally altered the educational landscape, bringing bothadvantages and challenges. In engineering education, the rapid adoption of GenAI tools hasfacilitated learning but has also spurred a notable increase in academic dishonesty. In the wake ofthis shift researchers have been quick to examine effects. Chan [1] explored this phenomena andintroduced the concept of “AI-giarism”, describing the misuse of AI tools to bypass traditionalplagiarism detection systems through a qualitative study of over 500 students. Li [2] emphasizesin their work the growing ethical dilemmas stemming from hard to monitor usage of GenAI inassessments, ultimately calling for adaptive educational policies to address this issue. It is clearthat

classroomsize on student engagement, academic achievement, and overall learning experiences has becomea topic of increasing interest and significance. This research paper embarks on a journey tocomprehensively investigate the relationship between classroom learning and smaller classroomsizes. Wang et al. [1] explored the impact of class size on student engagement and satisfaction byutilizing a comparative analysis of small and large classes, revealing that smaller class sizessignificantly enhance teacher supportiveness and overall student satisfaction. By delving into themultifaceted effects of class size reduction, we aim to shed light on the potential benefits andchallenges associated with this critical dimension of the learning environment.
