SUMMARY:Lean for Leadership
DESCRIPTION:MAP200; One session\, 1-day \nRegistration required. MUST be 18 years of age with a verifiable address in the Rio Grande Valley. \n\n\n\nThis one-day workshop teaches participants how to deploy both the improvement and coaching Kata within an organization. The workshop provides a treatment of the Toyota Kata’s theoretical framework as well as its practical application.  The theoretical rationale for the Toyota Kata includes a preference for the use of the scientific method\, the use of deliberate practice in the development or transitioning of mental models\, and the deployment of organizational continuous improvement.  The practical application includes how data is collected for determining the current condition (diagramming\, process characteristics\, process metrics\, and outcome metrics)\, and the development of a target condition. Workshop content also includes determining obstacles and the cycling of PDCA (plan\, do check\, act) experiments.  The workshop is not a simulation of any business process but rather a demonstration of how the Toyota Kata applies to confronting challenging situations\, including continuous improvement.\n\n\n\n Register Here

SUMMARY:Kata In the Classroom
DESCRIPTION:SES600-12; 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:Kata In the Classroom
DESCRIPTION:SES600-9; 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
