Go and see for yourself to thoroughly understand the situation (genchi genbutsu). 13. Make decisions slowly by consensus, thoroughly considering all options; implement decisions rapidly. 14. Become a learning organization through relentless reflection (hansei) and continuous improvement (kaizen).One may notice that the principles do not directly specify a manufacturing process, but rather,they specify guidelines for company culture. There is a focus on three concepts throughout theseprinciples, particularly: respect for people, continuous improvement, and visual control [15].The first principle, in

All initial designs have room for improvement; groups iterate and continue testing, trying to improve their designs. Day 8: Design Challenge - Peer Feedback How can we improve our designs by giving and receiving peer feedback? Student groups self-evaluate their own design and design process, then pair up with other groups to offer feedback, help troubleshoot, and brainstorm solutions to common issues. Day 9: Design Challenge - Final Test & Review What can we learn by looking across all our design attempts? Groups reflect on their design attempts, and the teacher facilitates a whole class discussion comparing across designs. Student groups complete their

Fundamentally, Kolb’sExperiential Learning Model asserts that a cycle of concrete experience, reflective observation,abstract conceptualization, and active experimentation results in higher student learning [10].Implementation of Kolb’s method along with the integration of theory and hands-on practice inand introductory engineering course at Harvey Mudd College saw a statistically significant gainin student learning and an increased enthusiasm amongst female students [5].
