. Page 26.149.3The Lean Enterprise Institute founded by Womack 1 (1997) is aiming at developing educationalmethods and workshops to promote training about lean tools. Nontraditional instructionalmethods such as learning-by-doing methods, active and collaborative learning techniques aregetting more popular in the past few years. This trend is mostly reflected by introducing variousphysical simulation or computer games (gamification) and is growing rapidly due to theirpositive impact on learning process [1, 2]. The literature study illustrates a large pool ofeducational simulation games targeting different lean concepts and principles such as pullproduction, one piece flow, Jidoka, 5S, Poka Yoke and waste elimination.

The instructor of the course does not provide homework assignments. In previousoffers of this course, the instructor noticed that many students received perfect grades in thehomework assignments but they received low grades in the high stake assignments and/or exams.This rendered the homework assignments ineffective in this course and other courses taught bythis instructor.

The same quiz was given toboth groups. We continued using EQ 1 to determine which cohort students qualified for, and thecohort sizes were adjusted to reflect the earliest time period in which students watched the videos.In other words, now students only appear in one cohort.

Nunnally (1978) and Spector (1992) provide an accepted rule thatcoefficient alpha should be at least 0.70 for a scale to demonstrate internal consistency.Coefficient alpha, commonly referred to as Cronbach’s alpha, reflects internal-consistencyreliability for the constructs in this study.The coefficient of determination, R square, is commonly used in research to measure theadequacy of regression models. It can also be looked at as the proportion of variation in thedependent variable “explained” by the model. In general higher the R square the moreacceptable, the model.

But recently, the service sector hasbecome very important in today’s economy and a very large percentage of the workingpopulation is employed in the service sector. The problem solving tools which thestudents in industrial engineering learn can be applied to improvement of serviceindustries also. Many major service industries suffer from low quality and productivity,which can be remedied by industrial engineers. Because of this need for industrialengineers in service sector, an advisory board of Industrial

Additionally each student was required to perform analysis of what they have done wrong in each test that they had not passed and ways to correct them for further topics. Finally, each portfolio had to contain a reflective self-assessment of student’s performance in the class and what he/she considers to be a justified grade for that performance in lieu of the class grading policy in the syllabus. Students were also encouraged to include the evidence of their participation in community of learning and their own

Cameron and Quinn1 have defined four differenttypes of organizational culture. These are represented as adhocracy, clan, hierarchy,and market. They have suggested the different leadership styles or managerial stylespertaining to the respective organizational culture. When an organization is dominatedby the hierarchy culture, the leadership style shown is that of organizing, controlling,monitoring, administering, coordinating, and maintaining

EM programswere historically embedded within the departments of industrial engineering, depending upon theuniversities 4. However, in order to reflect the gradual shift from manufacturing to turn-keysystems integrators in a global economic environment, many more universities are aligning theirEM programs with their systems engineering program 5.Importance of Analyzing FailuresFailure analysis is the process of collecting and analyzing data to determine the cause of afailure.

of topics that might otherwise not be clear or considered by students.The layout in Figure 2 reflects students’ understanding that lean involves creating ‘cells’ (so anassembly line is needed for each product) and a ‘u-shaped’ flow. In this case, because theprocess used to create blue and black clocks is identical, separate lines are not that useful (and infact, cause an issue when a new product line is introduced as a surprise in the last round). Thelayout generates a specific discussion of whether or not such focus is necessary, engagingstudents and developing the opportunity for a deeper understanding of lean ideas. In addition, indeveloping a circular flow, students also created some congestion.While the inquiry focus leads to rich class

We found that the weekly reports were helpful in familiarizing the gamemasters with teams’ decision-making processes, and would like to continue this form of serialassessment. However, the prompts for these weekly reports should be more specific, and shouldalign with the learning frameworks identified in our analysis. We propose that in each weeklyreport, teams should be asked to reflect on the following: (1) What discrepancies exist betweenexpected and actual results of the previous week, (2) what strategies led to the

reflected the average of thetotal number of attempts for that assignment. For example, if a student scored 80, 90, and 100for the three assignment attempts for Homework #1, the Homework #1 assignment score wouldbe 90. If another student scored 90 and 100 and used only two attempts for Homework #1, thenthe assignment score would be a 95. Students quickly realized that in this scenario they wouldearn a higher score if they repeated the assessment a third time to earn a second 100 and increasethe average.Because these homework assignments were identical for each student and the questions hadmultiple choice answers, the instructors realized that either guessing or the sharing of answersamong students was possible.
