Cause and effect diagram is used to find the cause of a problem. We choose it as one of our solution model’s tool because it can help us to identify the causes of our problem. Our problem is the usage of many papers by students, based on our topic which is “Paperless Students’ Life on Campus”.
We divide the causes into four part : manpower, machines, materials and methods.
We divide the causes into four part : manpower, machines, materials and methods.
Under the manpower section, we find that the causes are negative attitudes of students towards the usage of papers, lack of awareness among students about this issue and requirements of lecturers about paper works. Students play very important role in solving this problem. Students should take their initiative to reduce usage of papers. They have to concern and sensitive to this issue. It will be more effective if the lecturers also put their effort in solving this problem. Since there are many inventions of educational technology, lecturers may use those tools in their teaching methods. Using those technologies, it is not impossible to implement paperless technique in education.
In the machines section, we find that the technology is not in advanced. The internet that students use is slow and not stable. The range of wireless connections is also not wide so that sometimes it is difficult to access into learning. Besides, there are students who are not afford to buy personal computer which is expensive and the maintenance cost is also high.
In the materials section, we find that most of the usage of papers come from the workloads of students such as the assignments and lecture notes. Some of the students do not full-used their papers and misuse the papers.
In the methods section, we find that our education system is the cause. Our education system can be improved to reduce the usage of papers. More technologies can be used in teaching and learning methods.
