Now, however, industries andorganizations are seeking engineers and managers to not only lead lean projects but to also initiateprojects to change organization culture and conduct lean training for fellow employees.For the past 12 years, Iowa State University has delivered a lean course via lectures and homework onkey lean tools and concepts. Further, lab-related lean projects, for teams of 5 to 6 students, have beendeveloped to supplement the academic learning with hands-on experience. Such lab-based leanprojects guide students in reviewing the current design and production system using an off-shelfproduct, brainstorming a new design so that the product can be produced in a one-piece-flow pullmanufacturing system.

Therefore, it is important that today’s construction and engineering programs appropriately incorporate technology as an integral part of student education. An informal survey of recent graduates identified that software was a predominant activity in many individuals’ jobs.Though not the focus of this study, the use of Automated quantity takeoff software permits theinstructors to provide more direct and specific feedback of a student’s work.

For example, a failure in a Chemistry ontology node could trigger a Page 23.1188.6reassessment of a related Algebra ontology node.
