Learners look through a telescope to see what a company chooses to focus on when making decisions about productivity, reducing waste, retraining, solving problems, and motivating employees.
Learners assign oxidation numbers to atoms in neutral compounds and in polyatomic ions. Six examples are worked through in detail, and three problems are provided.
Weight- Volume Relationships: Saturated Density (Metric)
Students read how to determine and calculate the saturated density for a given sample of soil or aggregate, based on the mass-volume relationship. Practice problems complete the activity.
In this module, we’ll explore what an affinity diagram is, discuss how it can be used to solve problems, and end with some real-world applications to show you how these can help you in any manufacturing role to bring order to chaos.
In this animated activity, learners read the definition of a parallelogram and then find the perimeter and area of parallelograms in practice problems.
In this animated and interactive object, learners view two examples of how to subtract fractions with unlike denominators and then work five similar problems.
Weight-Volume Relationships: Saturated Unit Weight
Students read how to determine and calculate the saturated unit weight for a given sample of soil or aggregate, based on the weight-volume relationship. Practice problems complete the activity.
Learners follow step-by-step instructions for finding the lowest common denominator for a group of algebraic fractions and then enter their answers to three problems. Immediate feedback is provided. This activity has audio content.
Matchless Manufacturing Company: An Exercise in Lean Thinking
In this interactive lesson, students use critical thinking to determine the best lean manufacturing initiative when solving problems for the fictitious Batchless Manufacturing Company.
In this interactive and animated object, students distribute the valence electrons in simple covalent molecules with one central atom. Six rules are followed to show the bonding and nonbonding electrons in Lewis dot structures. The process is well illustrated with eight worked examples and two interactive practice problems.
