Implementation Lean Teaching System forMathematics

Abstract

Mathematic Teaching systems facing many challenges and factors that affect negatively its performance. As lean management approach succeeded in industrial sector, lean methodologies may be helpful in managing math teaching system efficiently and effectively, where improving quality of math teaching services may be achieved through the implementation of lean principles. Therefore teaching systems that are represented by schools, universities, and colleges are a suitable field to apply lean management approach. This study trying to investigate the implementation of some lean principles in managing math teaching systems with high performance. Also, this paper aims to implement a lean mathematical teaching system for high institute students of energy in Kuwait, it is expected that applying lean principles in the education system of math courses will improve the teaching and learning operations, increase the communication between all education system stockholders, improve skills of workers, and decreasing downtime or losses. Many hypotheses are presented and tested here using SPSS program. It was found that the math education system may be become lean-based if it has a multi-functional and flexible staff, continuous development and training for staff, and if there are a student training and qualifying activities, good management system, and continuous curriculum development.
