 Instructor Philosophy:  Learning is dependent on the magnitude of the communication bandwidth between Instructor and Student, therefore,  we both must do all we can to communicate effectively, efficiently, vigilantly, and diligently!

13 Put CIS 701 in the Subject LIne of  all emails that you send to me.  25extra credit points if you think you know why. email me w. the answer.
14 I have written a lot and published a lot on TQM,  Dr, Deming, etc.  Try to find and read my propaganda. TQM  prepares you for the High Performance Workplace.   Email me if you know what I am talking about.    joseph@auciello.net  

Keep yourself, your work, your career, yourself at the Highest Levels.  "Do the Right Thing, Always" -- regardless of the actions of others who do not act on the Highest Levels.  You do the "right thing",  or as it is called -- "The Right Stuff" -- for yourself, and others on that level will recognize it and reward it.   In the context of this class, learn TQM, understand its place as part of the High Performance Workplace, and do your projects at the World Class Presentation Quality Level! 

Ever since I wrote the Principles of Total Quality Management, I have been consumed with absolute quality (which actually I never reach), so this whole course will be done in a Quality way.  Perfect assignments,  Perfect Presentation Quality.  Everything to a World-Class Standard!  It pays off.  See me for some stories.

I also, especially, must hit World-Class Quality.  Help me make these great courses even better by your participation and suggestions for improvement!

Find and Read the "Principles of Total Quality Management" on the web site for 50 points.  50-TQM

15 Clues if you get "stuck" -- Come see me in my classroom.  No appt. necessary.   https://auciello.tripod.com/701mashel.htm   also contains help on Projects.
16 Print out this form and put in Project Notebook (viewbinder) for reference.

A (4000),  B (3500),  C (3000). Work creates points which = grades.

We learn by doing in a structured environment. 

You need to meet certain performance-levels to pass this course.

 You need to be 'interacting in a virtual and visual environment.   (Also, you should have got the significance of 'hyper Bell Curve' -- the relationship of optimal technology, performance and quality -- email me for 50opt points if you 'get' this.).  

19

Meeting this performance-levels or demonstrating your skills in the skills areas in a Virtual environment, meant that I had to develop new "teaching-guiding-testing-tracking" software which the quiz above -- 

   https://auciello.tripod.com/woqu01.html   (WORD Quiz 01) is the prototype.   You may go ahead and start taking this Quiz.  Hold off on this if you find it difficult right now!

Learning should be continuous.  Thus continue to access this web site to explore and learn.  Be well, Work smarter.   Prof. A.  out.
