JIT in Education
Just-in-Time Teaching (JiTT for short) is a
teaching and learning strategy based on
the interaction between web-based study
assignments and an active learner
classroom. Students respond electronically
to carefully constructed web-based
assignments which are due shortly before
class, and the instructor reads the student
submissions "just-in-time" to adjust the
classroom lesson to suit the students'
needs. Thus, the heart of JiTT is the
"feedback loop" formed by the students'
outside-of-class preparation that
fundamentally affects what happens
Just in Time Practically is a….
Production strategy with
a new set of values to
continuously improve
quality and productivity.
Seven Principles of JIT
 Produce to exact demand
(Cater to limited strength in a classroom)
 Eliminate Waste
(Cater to giving 100% result of students)
 Produce one-at-a-time.
(Concentrate on one project/ innovation/ implementation of Quality
Education at a time)
 Achieve continuous improvement
(Have excellence through KAIZEN as a motto of the school)
 Respect people
(Recognize the talents of your staff and children)
 Allow for no contingencies.

(Quality Counts at all levels no matter it is at the level of the
classroom management)
 Provide long-term emphasis.
(Set goals towards improvement, as Rome was not built in a day)
Utilizing Quality@Source
in Education
The term Quality@Source
defines the implementation
of meeting customer
expectations by the value
adder doing it right the first
time and every time.

Research Methodology:
We attribute this success to three factors
that enhance student learning, identified
by Alexander Astin* in his thirty year study
of college student success:
increased amounts and quality of student-

student interaction
student-faculty interaction
student study outside of class.
By fostering these, JiTT promotes student
learning and satisfaction. *Astin,
Alexander:
What matters in college? Four critical years rev
(San Francisco, CA: Jossey-Bass Publishers,
1993).
What is Just-in-Time Teaching
designed to accomplish?
JiTT is aimed at many of the challenges

facing students and instructors in today's
classrooms
The JiTT classroom session is intimately
linked to the electronic preparatory
assignments the students complete
outside of class. Exactly how the classroom
time is spent depends on a variety of
issues such as class size, classroom
facilities, and student and instructor
personalities.
Just-in-Time Teaching strategy
pursues three major goals:
To maximize the efficacy of the classroom
session, where human instructors are
present.
To structure the out-of-class time for
maximum learning benefit.
To create and sustain team spirit. Students
and instructors work as a team toward the
same objective, to help all students pass
the course with the maximum amount of
retainable knowledge.

Principles of Q@S:
 Perfect Parts Every Time (Defines perfection as a
habit)

 Operator Responsibility (The ownership Quality
of the employees/ Teachers/ Students)

 New Customer Definition (The parents/ teachers/
students)

 Applies to Everyone (To doorman to the Top
Management)

 Application of Tools viz. Process Control &
JIT: Web Content
JiTT web pages fall into three major
categories:
Student assignments in preparation for the
classroom activity: WarmUps and Puzzles.
Enrichment pages. Short essays on
practical, everyday applications of the
course subject matter, peppered with URLs
to interesting material on the web. These
essays have proven themselves to be an
important motivating factor in introductory
service courses, where students often
doubt the current relevance the subject.
Stand alone instructional material, such as
simulation programs and spreadsheet
Just-in-time Learning is an emerging
educational paradigm where learners
identify specifically what they need to
learn and access it quickly from a wide
variety of educational providers,
instead of taking whole courses from local
educational institutions on their fixed
schedule.
Ideally, just-in-time learning is

- the exact content and delivery
method that the learner needs,
available at the time and place the
learner needs it.
The new preface of learning:
Traditional learning is delivered in a specific
location at a specific time, presumably to
amortize the "set-up" time for a course.
The new technology allows students to
learn anytime, anyplace and in any
increment of time. Institutions need to
change their educational models to deliver
this just-in-time learning.
