One-Point Lessons Productivity Press Development Team 1. Ausgabe

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
• Reference section
