On Friday July 15‚ my group of medical student visited the simulation laboratory. After climbing a couple sets of stairs we were broken off into three different groups for three different sets of activities. The first for me a combination of a couple of simulations. The first one was a simulation designed to help surgeons further develop their skills. We used small clamps to pick up and move rings to different poles. This seems quite simple but we had to do it looking at a monitor that projected

group dynamics were such that we did not effectively utilize the resources we had‚ and consequently pooled a very limited amount of information. Rather than minimizing our risk‚ we increased it. I attribute much of our group’s failure at this simulation to process loss‚ which is defined as the problems that arise from lack of effective coordination among group members. A number of factors at play could explain the process loss which led to our counterintuitive results. First and foremost‚ one must

Pizza Store Layout Simulation University of Phoenix Introduction The concept of the learning curve is a powerful tool and is applicable to all learning processes. In this simulation I became the manager and ran the Pizza store hoping to produce a better process for the amount of time a customer waits for their order. The goal of my job was to apply the learning curve concepts to test the alternative against the current process of the Pizza store. I will explain and provide information

Individual Simulation Paper RES 342 May 6‚ 2012 Intro The body of the simulation was about the soil in Ralph’s fields and what was making Ralph’s crops fail every year. Through this simulation I chose to use the two-way ANOVA and nonparametric test to help me evaluate the effects of the diverse factors on two response variables‚ which were productivity and client satisfaction. My findings helped me to narrow down and identify the areas that needed most improvement. Three Lessons Learned
