Interactive Digital Tools for Operations Management
SmartBook
SmartBook makes study time as productive and efficient as possible by identifying and closing knowledge gaps through a continually adapting reading experience. Robust reporting features enable you to track student progress and help guide teaching strategies for a more dynamic class experience.
Practice Operations
Practice Operations is a 3D, interactive, game-based simulation that puts students in the role of an Operations Manager and helps them to learn real life operations management skills. Available in Connect with a variety of OM textbooks, Practice Operations allows students to experience placing bids for contracts, ordering raw materials, managing physical resources, and more.
Video Series
The Operations Management Video Series are available across all Operations Management titles and provide students with additional reinforcement on core topics. Created by instructors, these personal videos bring online courses to life and help supplement any face-to-face class as well.
Algorithmic Problems
Algorithmic problems are auto-graded exercises using different numeric values each time a problem is served up to the student. This gives students practice in working a problem several times – same question, but different numbers each time. This also deters cheating because each student in a class or lab receives a slightly different version of the problem and correct answer.
Interactive Data Problems
Interactive data problems allow students to visualise and interact with data in different ways. Students can manipulate data and answer a variety of accompanying questions that test multiple levels of understanding.
Guided Examples
Guided Examples provide narrated and animated, step-by-step walkthroughs of algorithmic versions of assigned problems, providing immediate feedback and focus on the areas where students need the most guidance.
Orientation Videos
Assignable videos for students that provide an overview of SmartBook and homework they will see in Connect.
