| Summary: | In Lean Production training and education, simulators are often used. These can take the form of for instance desktop games, computer simulations, or full-scale simulators. Many training participants perceive models for experiential learning and for continuous improvement processes as complex and abstract. Based on experiences from training sessions in a full-scale simulator Karlstad Lean Factory®, a unified model for learning and improvement work is presented. This model stimulates training transfer and is perceived as intuitive. It also shows instructional scaffolding as a learning method. Suggestions for future work include investigating synergy with Smart Manufacturing and the use of Lean Production simulators for innovative product realisation.
