CHALLENGE 3CAUSE-EFFECT DIAGRAM

(Late Arrival Of Students)

By TEAM: SIMSREE TrianGirlsMembers: Roshani Kothari Chitra Wani Dhanashri Gonge MMS(1st year)

INTRODUCTION

It is created by Kaoru Ishikawa Cause-Effect diagram identifies many

possible causes for an effect or problem

It is used to discover root cause of the problem

It was originally developed as a quality control tool

It can be used to structure a brainstorming session

PROCEURE TO DRAW CAUSE-EFFECT DIAGRAM

Identify the problem(write it at the centre right of the plane in the box and draw horizontal line)

Decide major categories of causes of the problem(write these as branches from the main arrow )

Identify possible causes(write these as branches from the appropriate category)

EXAMPLEThe cause-effect diagram for incorrect deliveries is shown here

3 ROOT CAUSES

Oversleeping: This is one of the main root cause for late arrival of students. It delays all other following activities performed by student to reach the class.

Bad weather: It leads to delay or abrupt breakage in transportation system.

No motivation to go: Many times students don’t feel like going to college because of either disinterest in subject or interest in other things. In the process of deciding whether to attend the class or not, they end up coming late to class.

RECOMMENDED SOLUTIONS

Students should sleep at proper time so that they won’t oversleep and get late for the class. Also they should set alarm to wake up on time.

If transport system is not working due to bad weather, students should leave home early than the usual time. Also teacher can allow students coming from far distance up to a specific buffer time.

To keep interest of students teacher should make lecture interactive and interesting. Also they should motivate and make students understand importance of lecture.

LESSONS LEARNT

We learnt the procedure to draw cause-effect diagram and advantage of it in identifying root cause of any problem.

We learnt to introspect any given problem thoroughly and factors causing that problem. Also we learnt to find solution by analysing cause-effect diagram.
