SUMMARY:Kata In the Classroom
DESCRIPTION:SES600-1; One session\, 1-day \nRegistration required.  \nKata in the Classroom (KIC) is a hands-on exercise to introduce the scientific pattern of the Improvement Kata in school classrooms. It is targeted at Middle School Science teachers\, but is used in a variety of K-12 and even College educational settings. Kata in the Classroom involves the activity of assembling a 15-piece cardboard jigsaw puzzle several times\, and experimenting with ways to do it faster.   \nThe KIC exercise combines a practical scientific pattern (the “Improved Kata”) with techniques of deliberate practice\, to help make scientific thinking a teachable skill that anyone can learn. Teams of students (a) establish a baseline\, (b) face a Challenge\, (c) develop a next Target Condition on the way to the Challenge and (d) conduct experiments toward that Target Condition. While the students are engaged in a challenging game they are simultaneously being introduced to a scientific meta skill. KIC helps teach universal STEM skills for achieving challenging goals along uncharted paths: (1) Scientific and Creative Thinking – generate and refine solutions to obstacles through experimentation (2) Collaboration – work in a team to accomplish a next goal on the way to a larger challenge (3) Communication – organize thoughts\, data & findings\, and share them effectively.   \n Register

SUMMARY:Quick Change Over (SMED)
DESCRIPTION:MAP007; One session\, 1-day \nRegistration required. MUST be 18 years of age with a verifiable address in the Rio Grande Valley. \n\n\n\nQuick Changeover and Single Minute Exchange of Dies (SMED) Overview is a course designed to help manufacturing employees learn about techniques that reduce process changeover times from one product to another. Specific techniques are discussed to reduce equipment down time (waiting waste) due to the changeover process resulting in greater productivity and throughput. Examples are shown to speed up alignment of fixtures and methods are discussed to achieve changeover times on machines to less than 10 minutes (SMED).\n\n\n\n Notify Me

DESCRIPTION:SES600-8; One session\, 1-day \nRegistration required.  \nKata in the Classroom (KIC) is a hands-on exercise to introduce the scientific pattern of the Improvement Kata in school classrooms. It is targeted at Middle School Science teachers\, but is used in a variety of K-12 and even College educational settings. Kata in the Classroom involves the activity of assembling a 15-piece cardboard jigsaw puzzle several times\, and experimenting with ways to do it faster.   \nThe KIC exercise combines a practical scientific pattern (the “Improved Kata”) with techniques of deliberate practice\, to help make scientific thinking a teachable skill that anyone can learn. Teams of students (a) establish a baseline\, (b) face a Challenge\, (c) develop a next Target Condition on the way to the Challenge and (d) conduct experiments toward that Target Condition. While the students are engaged in a challenging game they are simultaneously being introduced to a scientific meta skill. KIC helps teach universal STEM skills for achieving challenging goals along uncharted paths: (1) Scientific and Creative Thinking – generate and refine solutions to obstacles through experimentation (2) Collaboration – work in a team to accomplish a next goal on the way to a larger challenge (3) Communication – organize thoughts\, data & findings\, and share them effectively.   \n Register

SUMMARY:Electrical Fabrication
DESCRIPTION:BCS308; One session\, 3-days \nRegistration required. MUST be 18 years of age with a verifiable address in the Rio Grande Valley. \n\n\n\nElectrical Fabrication 1 teaches the fundamental concepts of electrical wiring\, including the industry-standard components used by electricians\, technicians\, and engineers to install\, operate\, repair\, and design equipment for modern industry.  Learners will gain expertise in key skill areas\, such as basic electrical system wiring\, interpreting wire installation plans\, handling non-metallic cable\, connecting electrical services\, and installing basic electrical components like switches\, outlets\, and lighting.  Hands-on training allows learners to practice skills they will use on the job\, such as wire stripping and termination techniques\, grounding methods used in junction boxes\, and installing circuit breakers.  Real-world components include the use of lineman’s pliers\, diagonal cutters\, circuit breakers\, electrical boxes\, toggle switches\, and an assortment of wires and cables.  Learners will use these components to practice essential skills used in industry\, like connecting a plug to an electrical cord\, running and securing non-metallic cable between electrical boxes\, and connecting a wiring system to a service panel.\n\n\n\n Register Here
