Instructor’s Manual for Introduction to Quality Engineering

My other book, “Introduction to Quality Engineering,” was written to be a concise reference book for quality engineering professionals and it does not contain discussion questions and problem assignments at the end of each chapter. This Instructor’s Manual was written to be a companion to the above book. This Instructor’s Manual does not repeat the information in the above book. Instead, this Instructor’s Manual contains discussion questions and problem assignments for each chapter in the above book. This Instructor’s Manual could be used with my book “Introduction to Quality Engineering” to teach a course in the fundamentals of Quality Engineering in all the following scenarios: 1. College Course: This Instructor’s Manual could be used by a qualified instructor to teach an engineering course for credit towards an engineering degree at a college or university. 2. Continuing Education Course: This Instructor’s Manual could be used to teach a continuing education seminar for engineers, managers, or other individuals who need to be able to correctly apply quality engineering concepts. 3. Company Sponsored Seminar: This Instructor’s Manual could be used by a company trainer to teach a company sponsored seminar to company employees to teach them how to select and apply the appropriate quality engineering concepts to a variety of actual company problems. 4. Home Self-Study Course: This Instructor’s Manual could be used by a self-motivated individual who wishes to learn the correct way to apply the principles of quality engineering. The following companies and products are used consistently in this Instructor’s Manual from Chapter Six through Chapter Twenty-One: 1. Fast Food Restaurant (Fish Sandwich). 2. Two-Piece Leather Wristband for a Wristwatch. 3. Automobile Tire and Battery Retailer. 4. Wood Jewelry Box with Four Compartments. Two of the above are service organizations (a restaurant and an automobile battery retailer) and two of the above are manufacturing companies (a leather wristband and a wood jewelry box). The above options allow an instructor to use a different business or product to teach this course each time the instructor teaches the course. Each time an instructor teaches this course the instructor should use the same business or product beginning in Chapter Six and continuing through Chapter Twenty-One. The reason is because the concepts in each of the chapters have an impact on the concepts in other chapters. This helps students see how all the different concepts are related to each other. There is a Zip file for the Instructor’s Manual that can be downloaded from the internet. The Zip file contains Microsoft PowerPoint Slides that review the content in every chapter in the textbook. The PowerPoint slides also contain Discussion Questions that can be used to facilitate student participation about the content in each chapter in the textbook. The Zip file also contains Microsoft Word documents for all the Problem Assignments that are in the Instructor’s Manual. The Problem Assignments can be distributed to the students and those Assignment can be completed by the students and then graded by the Instructor, or the Assignments can be worked by the Instructor during a class session to help the students better understand the concepts in each chapter. The answers to all the Discussion Questions and the answers to all the Problem Assignments are in the Instructor’s Manual. There are no complimentary free copies of this Instructor’s Manual available to any university, organization, or individual. If you suspect that this Instructor’s Manual may be of use to you in whatever application that you intend to use it, then you will need to purchase a copy from Amazon.
