OMintheNews
OM in the News is a blog and newsletter available in Connect or stand-alone that was created for Operations & Supply Chain Management faculty by faculty, to supplement any course with up to the minute and relevant course material that’s followed by critical thinking questions for class discussion! All articles and videos are mapped by chapter to McGraw Hill Operations & Supply Chain Management titles making it easy to choose relevant and up to date material to use in class, at any stage of the course, and each are followed by discussion questions and/or guidance for great class discussion starters or projects.
Videos and Guided Hints
A series of On-Location Videos and Concept Overview Videos provide interactive opportunities to support student learning. On-Location Videos highlight real companies and their actual manufacturing processes, bringing key operations management topics to life. Concept Overview Videos are personal, assignable videos that are created by instructors to bring online courses to life and help supplement any face-to-face class. Both On-Location Videos and Concept Overview Videos are followed by auto-graded concept-check questions, and they are organized by chapter within Connect. Guided Video Hints are narrated, animated, step-by-step walkthroughs of algorithmic versions of assigned exercises provide immediate feedback and focus on the areas where students need the most guidance. Guided Video Hints are available for most Operations Management titles.
SmartBook
Available within Connect, SmartBook 2.0 personalizes learning to individual student needs, continually adapting to pinpoint knowledge gaps and focus learning on concepts requiring additional study. For instructors, SmartBook tracks student progress and provides insights that guide teaching strategies and advanced instruction, for a more dynamic class experience.
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.
Connect Reports
Save time and gain student insights. Connect provides customizable reports on student performance, learning outcomes, at-risk students, and integrates easily with LMS gradebooks.
Application-Based Activities
Bridge the gap between classroom theory and real-world application with Application-Based Activities that engage students and put them in the decision-making seat. Students practice their problem-solving and critical thinking skills as they immerse themselves in real-life business scenarios that require them to apply the course concepts they have learned. Each branching simulation is designed to take 10-30 minutes to complete.
