How we do work
    D = demonstrate (your ability)
    S = support     (your decisions - w/o preference)
    C = communicate (your knowledge)
    
Think and Draw
  
Think about what you do and how you do it;
Think about what you say and how you say it;
Think about what you think and how you think it.

Three learning ways
    1) from your efforts
    2) from your colleagues
    3) from your faculty

Cooperative matching effort
    X------------>O  Teacher centered
    X----->|<-----O  Meeting halfway
    X--->     <---O  Matching effort
    X--------------  Cooperative overlapping matching effort
    --------------O> 
    
Three people types:
    (1) those who make things happen; 
    (2) those who let things happen; and 
    (3) those who ask 'what happened?'
    
Project and time management
    concurrent projects
    
    | acceptance -> flex time -> targets -> closure -> END |
