. The other threeare Appreciation for a System, Theory of Knowledge, and Psychology. Lloyd S. Nelson wasquoted saying that the central problem in management and in leadership is failure to understandinformation in variation.This paper presents an educational tool that demonstrate the effects of process tampering onvariation. It shows that reacting to common causes of variation as if they were special causesonly leads to increase in variation and the likelihood of producing unacceptable output. To do so,an experiment was conducted by students (volunteers) in three stages. The first is the “control”stage, where the process operated as is. In the second stage, students were asked to make neededadjustments to achieve established target. The third

To make this a manageableresponsibility for the instructor, a rubric was used in grading the field-trip reports (Appendix 1).Six Sigma DMAIC LabsThe curriculum included a course in Quality Management, which covered Six Sigmamethodology and tools, lean thinking practices and tools, process mapping, and applications forbusiness process improvement.

solution process is more important than the finalproduct.”Barrows4, doing research in the medical education field in the 1980’s, stated that problem-basedlearning can have many different meanings, depending on the skills of the teacher and theeducational learning objectives being pursued. In the medical field, existing cases taken from themedical research literature are an important part of the educational process. Barrows saw that ataxonomy was needed to help differentiate the many types of case-based learning processespossible. The taxonomy ranges from cases explained mostly via lecture, through looking at acase from beginning to end, applying lessons learned, and starting back at the beginning of thecase again, to see is a different approach to

They should understand structuring problems and posing problems.They should be informed that there is a spectrum of problems, ranging from well-structuredproblems with definite answers and clear boundaries, such as are found in traditional textbooks (andnowhere else), and open-ended, ill-structured problems, such as are found in the engineeringworkplace. The essential and unique point is that learners s must pose, clarify, and define problems,not simply solve them.And, at the same time, learners should practice metacognitive skills such as reflecting on how theyare building these schemes. Metacognitive activities are manifold and not easy to classify. Howeverthere is widespread

At this stage, engineering students are able to differentiate their viewand recognize leadership being non-positional, and “as-needed”. Leadership is starting to berecognized as a process.
