3. Learn. Perform. Succeed. LOG 304 Update History Spiral 3 (2003) – Reengineered the exercises but still heavily instructor-centric (800+ slides) – Added Research Paper (Mandatory but NOT evaluated) Spiral 4 (2004) – Reduced number of slides and added objective & subjective test Spiral 5 (Sep 06-Feb 07) – Eliminated Objective/subjective test. – Evaluated “Research Paper and Brief” – Added Leadership/ Management evaluated exercise – Re-wrote PBL lesson and Exercise to include PBA and eliminated PBA as a separate Lesson – Re-wrote BCA adding “Best Value” and eliminated “Best Value” as a separate lesson

4. Learn. Perform. Succeed. LOG 304 Spiral 5 Revision Synopsis Current LOG 304 LessonLOG 304, Spiral 5 Changes Emerging Topics Added State of Logistics Community slides Supply Chain Management Beer Game Interoperability, Standardization & Commonality Major Revision; Also added SE provided slides on “Net Centricity” Product Support in Evolutionary Acquisition No change. Systems Engineering Update incorporating “V” charts Operational Logistics Major Revision Business Case Analysis Remains essentially the same; Integrated essential “Best Value” slides Best Value Dropped; Integrated into BCA Performance Metrics No change. RTOC No change. PBL Revised to“Blooms level 4” and redesigned the exercise. Integrated “Performance Agreements” into the exercise. Performance Agreements Dropped entirely; Material integrated into PBL lesson Management and Oversight Major revision. Worked with PML to revise content & integrate “Problem Solving” lesson. Added management/leadership requirement for graduation Environmental, Safety and Health (ESH) No change. Assessment Process Dropped objective & subjective tests. Added “Research + Brief” assessment & leadership assessment KEY With Few Exceptions, Remains unchanged Minor Revisions, Updates, Additions Major Revision, or Deletion/Replacement

8. Learn. Perform. Succeed. So Why Change a Good Thing? Good, but can be even better! Objective-based, not competency-based Not Life Cycle-focused Duplication of LOG 201 and LOG 235 content Some content better suited for a future LOG 206 Material in not adequately integrated Still too instructor-centric Not yet a true capstone Logistics course

9. Learn. Perform. Succeed. Course will experience “spontaneous evolution” Next step in the Executive-level Logistics course: LOG 350 Enterprise Life Cycle Logistics Management Stephen J. Gould: Abbreviated/Punctuated Equilibrium
