INSTITUTIONAL BACKGROUND

The Pusat Kegiatan Guru (PKG), the Teachers Activity Centre was formed to act as a catalyst to stimulate professional development of teachers, particularly to enhance the knowledge and acculturation of Education Technology in the teaching and learning process and promote the use of the School library. The PKG would also become the center for professional development of local teachers and the local community.

The PKG Management Committee consists of the head teachers of the schools in the respective PKG zones and are responsible for planning the activities to enhance the effectiveness of teaching and learning and technology-based education and in the development of more efficient school library.

During restructring of the district school boundaries in the same year, the number of schools in the zone was increased from nine to seventeen schools.

After having learned our weaknesses and shortcomings in our day to day running following the invigilating teams report, we decided to look within ourselves, re-examining our procedures and workmanship. Holding true to the KAIZEN concept of eliminating weaknesses and wastages and continually trying to improve ourselves, we held post mortem, planning and KAIZEN meeting to map out a route to improve our performance. We procured the help from the local schools. The schools were kind enough to offer help in the form School Computer Technicians to assist in preparing working papers, reports and data displays to comply with the invigilating teams recommendations. Kaizen involves every member of the organization, compelling and encouraging them to make changes, in most cases small, incremental changes. It focuses on: 1. Identifying and solving problems at their source 2. Changing standards to ensure the problem stays solved. Traditional Kaizen is, by definition, long term, a gradual incremental change results in small improvements throughout the organisation. A Kaizen Blitz or Kaizen Event is fast and furious: it rapidly implement workcells, improves setups or streamlines processes. These methods plan ahead and then execute a process improvement over a period of days.

Kaizen activities that address issues over a period of one week had become the industry norm and they had been named as Kaizen events. These small models are used to understand problems and issues in the processes, arrive at solutions, and apply them to improve the processes and eliminate wastes What we have planned here is a Kaizen event, to rectify all the shortcomings identified by the invigilating team, fill every gap and correct every mistake in the event over a period of one month. The Nilam coordinators and librarians in each school should also finish and hand in their respective reports to be analyzed and put on display.
