Description

The first learning module covers the important principles of one-point lessons. The second module uses a case study based on establishing a preventive maintenance system for equipment being used by a grounds-keeping crew. Learners work together in small groups to develop a one-point lesson. The third module has learners creating one-point lessons based on conditions in their own work.

As part of the tool, lessons are divided into three types:

Basic Lessons describe something team members need to know for everyday work or participation in improvement activities.
Problem Case Studies use actual examples of breakdowns, defects, and other abnormalities to illustrate what should be done everyday to prevent problems from recurring.
Improvement Case Studies describe the concepts, contents, and results of actual improvement resulting from team activities, so that similar improvements can be made in other areas.

The toolkit includes:

Leader's guide
CD-ROM (Powerpoint slides, examples of One-Point Lesson, PDF files with forms and checklists, and certificates of completion)
Curriculum for three learning modules
Tests for evaluation
