Halloween,Operations simulation


The pressure is building up.On Tuesday,we had a marvellous presentation session by Stephen Carver.He mesmerised the audience with his charismatic presentation skills.We wondered how often we are unaware of our body movements while we present and how much our body movements,expressions conveyed even when we did not use words.Our first assignment 'OB Individual report' was due on Thursday 4pm.Everyone was busy pondering over the irritating yellow papers...getting their Quoits ready before the report.We celebrated Halloween on Thursday night we .Our stream reps Robin Duxfield & Wei had arranged the evening in a wonderful way at the socials.The whole place was marvellously decorated with pumpkin lanterns and everyone came dressed up in their halloween masks.

We could hardly recognise one another behind skeleton masks,witch attires and mummy dress es as we drank 'Blood of the witches'.On Friday morning we gathered at the Sports hall for the OM simulation.Poeple were shivering in cold while they struggled to make electronic circuits-the 'Standard',the 'Premier' and 'Dual' breadboard chips where we simulated the Operations of an electronics factory-made our product according to the customer's orders and delivered in time.There was one team which simulated the manufacturing model and the other which audited them.The results were declared and then the teams combined together to come up with the learnings from the exercise and then implement the best model and repeat the exercise.It was indeed a great experience as we could put in practice the theoretical models and could see their effects in reality..gave a lot of practical learning.
