Working in groups of four to six students, complete the following exercise:

Determine who in your group knows how to make paper objects such as cranes, boxes, balloons, ninja darts, fortunes, boats, and so on. Select one person who is willing to be a subject matter expert (SME) to assist your group in developing an on-the-job training program to make one product.

Using the expertise of your SME, develop, document (refer to the sample job instruction template earlier in the chapter), and validate a training plan to make the chosen product. Modify the documented plan as required after your pilot.

Ensure that everyone in your group has a copy of the plan and can reliably make the product to standards. Once this is accomplished, each group member will pair up with a member of another group that made a different product. Each person in the resulting pairs will train his or her partner on how to make the products using the training plan and sample he or she created.

Debrief the exercise as instructed. LO.1
