New employees at Avondale Industries’ unmanned systems production line in Denver, CO, participate in employee training under the direction of the training and development department, but the line managers conduct the actual training. During the last two trainings, the line managers cut the sessions short and explained that the employees would receive better training while working on the production line. The trainer responsible for the program understood the line managers’ viewpoint about developing skills used on the line but needed them to see that training should provide more than just developing those specific skills. Which of the follow statements best explains why training should provide a longer-term view than just teaching line workers the skills needed to perform satisfactorily in their current jobs?
Giving line workers expanded training helps them understand more than specific skills; it also helps them become more confident contributors.

Methylene chloride was used as the eluting solvent. No separation of the components in the sample was observed. What must have been happening during this experiment? How would you change the experiment to overcome this problem?arrow_forward1. Several students performed this experiment without paying adequate attention to the details of the procedure. Briefly explain what effect each of the following procedural hanges would have on the size of the volume- to- temperature ratio calculated by the students. (a) One student failed to replenish the boiling water in the boiling- water bath as the flask was being heated. At the end of the 6 min of heating, the boiling water in the bath was only in contact with the lower portion of the flask. (b) Following the proper heating of the flask in the boiling water, a student removed the flask from the boiling- water bath but only partially immersed the flask in the ice-water bath during the cooling period. (c) A student neglected to close the pinch clamp before removing the flask from the boiling water bath and immersing it in the ice-water bath. (d) One student neglected to measure the volume of the flask before leaving the laboratory. Because the procedure called for a 125-mL…arrow_forward
