Lean Processes Instructional Card

This scenario-based instructional activity card, from the ATE 2.0: Preparing Technicians for the Future of Work project, was created to support the implementation of the Cross-Disciplinary STEM CORE Framework. This framework has the following three skill areas: Data Knowledge and Analysis, Advanced Digital Literacy, and Business Knowledge and Processes. Instructional activity cards were created for each skill area. These instructional cards can be used as micro-lessons to introduce new technology skills into the classroom.

This Lean Processes activity card is a part of the Business Knowledge and Processes skill area. The card explains what lean processes are and how they relate to business knowledge and processes, how technicians will use lean processes, vocabulary, education, future trends, and more. The last page includes the activity, which "provides students the opportunity to explore lean business processes and how they can be used in technician roles."

The Cross-Disciplinary STEM Core Framework and other activity cards are available to view separately.
