Abstract

The Shad Process Flow Design Exercise is a simulation designed to help students cement what they learn in the process fundamentals section of the RCTOM course by giving them the opportunity to translate classroom concepts into actual physical processes and experience the challenges of working with a team of peers to implement and then improve and refine their designs. This teaching note is for the exercise kick-off and explains the logic behind the exercise design.
