| fill in fishbone diagram: The Quality Toolbox Nancy Tague, 2004-07-14 The Quality Toolbox is a comprehensive reference to a variety of methods and techniques: those most commonly used for quality improvement, many less commonly used, and some created by the author and not available elsewhere. The reader will find the widely used seven basic quality control tools (for example, fishbone diagram, and Pareto chart) as well as the newer management and planning tools. Tools are included for generating and organizing ideas, evaluating ideas, analyzing processes, determining root causes, planning, and basic data-handling and statistics. The book is written and organized to be as simple as possible to use so that anyone can find and learn new tools without a teacher. Above all, this is an instruction book. The reader can learn new tools or, for familiar tools, discover new variations or applications. It also is a reference book, organized so that a half-remembered tool can be found and reviewed easily, and the right tool to solve a particular problem or achieve a specific goal can be quickly identified. With this book close at hand, a quality improvement team becomes capable of more efficient and effective work with less assistance from a trained quality consultant. Quality and training professionals also will find it a handy reference and quick way to expand their repertoire of tools, techniques, applications, and tricks. For this second edition, Tague added 34 tools and 18 variations. The Quality Improvement Stories chapter has been expanded to include detailed case studies from three Baldrige Award winners. An entirely new chapter, Mega-Tools: Quality Management Systems, puts the tools into two contexts: the historical evolution of quality improvement and the quality management systems within which the tools are used. This edition liberally uses icons with each tool description to reinforce for the reader what kind of tool it is and where it is used within the improvement process. |

Dingsøyr, 2005-01-11 This was the first year that the European Software Process Improvement Conference - EuroSPI - had a separate research track with its own proceedings.The EuroSPI conference is in its eleventh year, and has become the main meeting place in Europe for the software industry and academia to discuss software process improvement. The conference deals with software process improvement in a broad sense, investigating organizational issues as well as methods and tools for software process improvement. Euro SPI is an initiative financed by a consortium of Nordic research centers and user networks(SINTEF, DELTA and STTF), ASQF, a German quality assurance association, and ISCN in Ireland, the coordinating network partner. The research papers describe innovative and significant work in software process improvement, which is relevant to the software industry. The papers are readable for a scientific and industrial audience, and support claims with appropriately described evidence or references to relevant literature. Thirty-one papers were submitted in this year's research track, and each paper was sent to three or four members of the program committee or additional reviewers. Papers were evaluated according to originality, significance of the contribution, quality of the written and graphical presentation, research method applied, and appropriateness of comparison to relevant research and literature. Almost 100 reviews were received and 18 papers were selected for presentation in the research track, giving a rejection rate of 42%. Many high-quality submissions had to be rejected because of limited space in the conference program. The selected papers cover a wide area in software process improvement, from - proving agile development methods, techniques for software process improvement,and knowledge management in software companies to effort estimation and global software development |

| fill in fishbone diagram: 200+ Active Learning Strategies and Projects for Engaging Students Multiple Intelligences James Bellanca, 2009 What if Libyan terrorists obtained $US36 billion worth of street ready heroin? White Monsoon is a codename for a plot by six Libyan terrorists to flood the United States with bargain-basement-priced heroin. This release intertwines two novels, subtitled, MORPHINE BASE set in March, 1992 and PURE HEROIN around Halloween of the same year. Scott, I'm mad at you the voice in Xenia, OH said. What's the matter, Jim? What are you mad about? You sent me your book and I opened it, started reading and couldn't put it down. I read it straight through and hardly got any sleep in three or four days. Then he laughed. No. You have really got something here. This is a wonderful story. James H. Pee Wee Martin, 101st Airborne - 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 3rd Battalion - G Company Morphine Base is an intriguing fast-paced collection of stories that weave together into an international thriller. One story line follows a group of Libyan terrorists with curious non-Muslim names as they weed out a Mossad informant in their midst, masquerade as members of the International Red Cross and transport five eighteen wheelers from Libya to Nimach (an acronym for Northern India Mounted Artillery & Cavalry Headquarters) a town of about 150,000 known for the highest opium production in India. In another story line, Scott captures the world of the opium trade from both the licit and illicit sides of the coin by focusing on one group of licensed opium farmers and their interactions with vicious drug traffickers as they try to bring their opium harvest to market once again in Nimach. High ranking Mossad agents come across the pond to ask the help of old friends at the CIA's training facility nicknamed The Farm in Virginia. The Mossad want help finding a missing agent who had infiltrated a dangerous terrorist group and almost discovered the terrorists' plot--code named White Monsoon. Pure Heroin is aptly titled because it is the central theme around which the entire tale is spun. Heroin causes the three year old daughter and infant son of an educational programmer of personal computers to be kidnapped and taken to a remote prison built in a molybdenum mine abandoned by the Russians following their brief occupation of Afghanistan. Heroin causes the death of the daughter and husband of a woman who helps the terrified father. Wonderful people, the father and the woman who helps him find themselves drawn to each other with ever growing yearnings, visceral and deep, as they try deperately to override their feelings and stay focused on finding out where the man's children have been taken. This PG-13 yarn about two American heroes delights all ages according to some wonderful feedback. One twelve year old Indian boy gave it to his grandparents who looked forward to the book more than television and read the book to each other. This seems to be a trend. We're hearing from numerous couples they've been reading to their spouses or to their families once or twice a week and it's helping to bring people back to the dinner table. We've had people receive the book as a gift who were sad at first that they didn't get something by one of their favorite authors. One taxi driver from Oklahoma City wrote, I almost took the book to Barnes & Noble to exchange it. I'm so glad I didn't. I read it while waiting in taxi stands and had it sitting in my passenger seat. I ended up giving it to a site locator for the movie industry who was looking for farms for another twister movie and told the guy what a great low budget movie it would make. |
| fill in fishbone diagram: The Cognitive Autopsy Pat Croskerry, 2020-05-22 Behind heart disease and cancer, medical error is now listed as one of the leading causes of death. Of the many medical errors that may lead to injury and death, diagnostic failure is regarded as the most significant. Generally, the majority of diagnostic failures are attributed to the clinicians directly involved with the patient, and to a lesser extent, the system in which they work. In turn, the majority of errors made by clinicians are due to decision making failures manifested by various departures from rationality. Of all the medical environments in which patients are seen and diagnosed, the emergency department is the most challenging. It has been described as a wicked environment where illness and disease may range from minor ailments and complaints to severe, life-threatening disorders. The Cognitive Autopsy is a novel strategy towards understanding medical error and diagnostic failure in 42 clinical cases with which the author was directly involved or became aware of at the time. Essentially, it describes a cognitive approach towards root cause analysis of medical adverse events or near misses. Whereas root cause analysis typically focuses on the observable and measurable aspects of adverse events, the cognitive autopsy attempts to identify covert cognitive processes that may have contributed to outcomes. In this clinical setting, no cognitive process is directly observable but must be inferred from the behavior of the individual clinician. The book illustrates unequivocally that chief among these cognitive processes are cognitive biases and other flaws in decision making, rather than knowledge deficits. |
| fill in fishbone diagram: Lean Manufacturing and Six Sigma Fausto Pedro García Márquez, Isaac Segovia, Tamás Bányai, Péter Tamás, 2020-02-14 Lean Manufacturing, also called lean production, was originally created in Toyota after the Second World War, in the reconstruction period. It is based on the idea of eliminating any waste in the industry, i.e. any activity or task that does not add value and requires resources. It is considered in every level of the industry, e.g. design, manufacturing, distribution, and customer service. The main wastes are: over-production against plan; waiting time of operators and machines; unnecessary transportation; waste in the process itself; excess stock of material and components; non value-adding motion; defects in quality. The diversity of these issues will be covered from algorithms, mathematical models, and software engineering by design methodologies and technical or practical solutions. This book intends to provide the reader with a comprehensive overview of the current state, cases studies, hardware and software solutions, analytics, and data science in dependability engineering. |

Wylie McVay Jr, 2016-04-22 A quality product or service is the successful and profitable outcome of organising resources, as judged by the final customer. Every business unit needs processes in order to do this effectively; and all processes must be documented so that achievements can be measured and future improvements planned and implemented. Pharmaceutical Process Design and Management takes a step-wise approach to process management. It presents the various elements comprising a process (man, machine, materials, method and environment); it looks at quality control and quality assurance, tools for quality improvements and ways of structuring a process into discrete, fully accountable elements; it proposes that for processes to run successfully, all operators must be the initial problem-solvers; finally, it illustrates how, with the right tools, every problem can be broken down into solvable elements. Learn how to deploy a science and risk-based approach to pharmaceutical manufacturing, by taking a fundamental approach to process design and management and, as a consequence, keep your customers satisfied and your profits healthy. |

| fill in fishbone diagram: The SAGE Encyclopedia of Action Research David Coghlan, Mary Brydon-Miller, 2014-08-11 Action research is a term used to describe a family of related approaches that integrate theory and action with a goal of addressing important organizational, community, and social issues together with those who experience them. It focuses on the creation of areas for collaborative learning and the design, enactment and evaluation of liberating actions through combining action and research, reflection and action in an ongoing cycle of cogenerative knowledge. While the roots of these methodologies go back to the 1940s, there has been a dramatic increase in research output and adoption in university curricula over the past decade. This is now an area of high popularity among academics and researchers from various fields—especially business and organization studies, education, health care, nursing, development studies, and social and community work. The SAGE Encyclopedia of Action Research brings together the many strands of action research and addresses the interplay between these disciplines by presenting a state-of-the-art overview and comprehensive breakdown of the key tenets and methods of action research as well as detailing the work of key theorists and contributors to action research. |

| fill in fishbone diagram: Small Group and Team Communication Thomas E. Harris, John C. Sherblom, 2018-05-10 Much of contemporary communication occurs between and among small groups, whether in person in a work setting or on the Internet via email, Facebook, or instant messages. How we engage in our small-group communication in each medium matters. To be effective we have to consider our group roles, norms, cohesion, process, and phases of development, as well as our personal verbal and nonverbal communication and listening styles. To succeed as a member of a team, we need to consider the limits of our personal experience and perspective, recognize the creative strength of diverse perspectives in decision making and problem solving, develop our conflict-management skills, and strengthen our leadership skills. To be successful necessitates an understanding of group process, participation style, ethical group behavior, and the influences of the medium. Small Group and Team Communication explores all these different interconnections and the communication strategies we use in our work and social groups. The authors use the systems perspective as their core approach throughout the text, treating small groups as complex open systems reliant upon communication to achieve success. Many chapters highlight the importance of considering ethics and diversity in relation to a variety of topics. Harris and Sherblom address the growing influence of computer-mediated communication to this discipline. Real-world, applied examples show students that what they’re learning aren’t simply abstract concepts, but knowledge that will serve them outside the classroom. |
| fill in fishbone diagram: Teachers’ Professional Development on Problem Solving Judit Orgoványi-Gajdos, 2016-10-26 Since teaching is a practical activity, efficient problem-solving skill is one of the fundamental competencies teachers need to possess. All teachers face challenging school situations during teaching-learning process no matter where they teach or since when. Despite similarities appearing on the surface, every school situation is unique and depends on several internal and external factors that should have been taken into account. Therefore, in many problematic cases it is not enough to deal with the symptoms, but teachers need to go deeper. This book provides a theoretical and practical background for this step-by-step problem solving-oriented thinking process. The practical activities can help teachers to frame and identify their challenges, to analyse the cause and effect of their situation, and also to find their own solutions and strategies. The material in this book can be used in pre-service or in-service teacher training that deal with pedagogic cases, or challenges of teaching and learning processes. However, most of the tools can also be used individually by teachers at any stage of their career, including any type of compulsory education, thanks to the clear description of each technique. |

| fill in fishbone diagram: Achievement Teams Steve Ventura, Michelle Ventura, 2022-05-27 What if you had a collaborative process of looking at student data that could pinpoint student gaps in learning and suggest effective strategies to close those gaps? What if you knew not only what you should start doing to enhance student learning, but also what you should stop doing because it hasn't given you the hoped-for results? Enter Achievement Teams. This is not another program that's here today and gone tomorrow; it's a timeless approach that any school or district can replicate that focuses on the most significant variable in student achievement: teaching. In Achievement Teams, Steve Ventura and Michelle Ventura offer a framework based on John Hattie's Visible Learning research that makes teacher collaboration more efficient, rigorous, satisfying, and effective. Think of it as a systematic treasure hunt for best practices using real data on your students. The authors walk you through the Achievement Teams four-step meeting protocol: * In Step 1, teams focus on the evidence from a pre-assessment to provide specific feedback to students and teachers about concepts and skills that students did and did not learn. * In Step 2, teams use that evidence to establish SMART goals for both teachers and students. * In Step 3, teams summarize the collected data and make inferences around students' mastery levels. * In Step 4, teachers select high-impact strategies directly targeted to student needs. A post-assessment reveals what did and didn't work. The authors provide a plethora of resources along the way, including reflection activities to extend your thinking and a variety of helpful downloadable templates designed to facilitate the work. If you're a teacher or leader who is interested in maximizing student achievement, this book is for you. |

Smith, 2023-10-06 About the Book The Velvet Glove of Leadership in the 2020s: Leadership Principles That Don’t Change in a Changing World is a handy reference for many of the key “arts” and “sciences” of leadership. The pace of change may be faster than ever and the challenges of a post pandemic world difficult to navigate, but there are principals that remain relevant to good leadership. Topics like communication and listening may be even more important in a world of Zoom meetings with fewer face to face opportunities to build relationships with senior leaders and subordinates alike. Even those with a long history in leadership will find useful information about the situations emerging leaders encounter on a daily basis. About the Author Dennis E. Smith has held a variety of leadership positions including a regional construction company with 85 employees, a nuclear capable field artillery battalion of 500 soldiers, and as a national director of facilities in a Fortune 500 company for over 100 hospitals nationwide. Smith also worked as an adjunct professor at Friends University in Wichita, Kansas. |

It also considers the design of online mediated communities to enhance such learning. The “openness” may be open-access, and/or it may even be open-source. The learning may range from self-directed and automated to AI robot-led to instructor-led. The main concept of this work is that design learning for open sharing, requires different considerations than when designing for closed and proprietary contexts. Open sharing of learning contents requires a different sense of laws (intellectual property, learner privacy, pedagogical strategies, technologies, media, and others). It requires different considerations of learner diversity and inclusion. It requires geographical, cultural, and linguistic considerations that are not as present in more localized designs. The open sharing aspect also has effects on learner performance tracking (assessments) and learner feedback. This textbook targets students, both undergraduate and graduate in computer science, education and other related fields. Also, professionals in this field managing online systems would find this book helpful. |
