Our MyLabOperationsManagement (or MyOMLab for short) has such a wealth of features that sometimes Jay, Chuck, and I need to remind ourselves of the dozens of pieces of content once in a while. So this one and 1/4 hour video presentation by Chuck can help guide you as you prepare for the new semester.
Chuck will discuss how to set up your MyOMLab course for the first time and all of these features:
Multimedia content, including the Instructor’s Resource Manual and all of its suggestions for using our 2,000 PowerPoints, videos, classroom exercises and games, and teaching tips.
The Instructor’s Solution Manual that the three of us created, including answers to all discussion questions, homework problems, case studies, and ethical dilemmas.
Active Models, which are Excel based simulations in most chapters.
MyOMLab contents including:
90 Solved Problem Videos that mimic homework problems to help walk through solutions step-by-step.
46 company videos we created to specifically match chapter content featuring these premier organizations: Hard Rock, Celebrity Cruises, Alaska Airlines, Frito-Lay, Arnold Palmer Hospital, Nautique Boats, Orlando Magic, Darden Restaurants (Red Lobster and Olive Garden) and their related case studies that appear in the text.
850 automatically-graded by MyOMLab homework problems–almost all algorithmic so you may assign homework with each student dealing with a unique data set. Plus the ability to create your own custom questions and problems.
OM in the News readings with multiple choice questions that may be assigned. These are updated every semester so the content is current.
12 recent graduate videos, where these young people talk about their OM jobs–and provide career tips/advise. These too have multiple choice questions that are assignable.
12 “how to create your own spreadsheet” videos to help students develop their own OM Excel spreadsheets.
5 operations management simulations to give students hands-on experience in project management, forecasting, quality, supply chains, and inventory.
And that is just a quick overview. If you find it a bit overwhelming, don’t hesitate to contact us for some personal help.

I thought the video presentation was excellent. I especially liked the problem-solving software demonstration.
