Master Playbook
Follow the workflow from business framing through data, analysis, delivery, and review.
Public downloadTeaching
Choose an editable guide, a review method, or a small practice lab. The materials support faculty judgment and make the learning path visible.
Use the five-step cycle with a discipline-specific question: Ask, Analyze, Improve, Apply, Reflect. Require the student to explain the evidence and their revision decisions.
Review one course at a time. Collect the approved outcomes, schedule, assignments, rubrics, and aggregate learning evidence. Add dated external references and review each KEEP, UPDATE, ADD, or REMOVE recommendation.
A practical planning template for a shared course baseline, instructor coordination, assessment evidence, MOS logistics, and improvement tracking. It proposes responsibilities for confirmation with program leadership; it does not establish university policy or delegated authority.

The guide records a 2026–2027 planning context. Confirm current catalog requirements and local assessment procedures before use.

Applied analytics prototype
This research prototype retrieves public market data, checks settlement descriptions and activity, groups related questions and ranks candidates for further investigation. It illustrates data quality, provenance, uncertainty and evidence-led research.
Status: prototype, not a released tool. The recovered Python export contains notebook prose that prevents execution. No working application or validated prediction model is supplied here. An educational next step is a reproducible, read-only research notebook with documented inputs and independent checks.
