Project Plan

 Part 2. Answers to Questions in Microsoft Word Read and think through the options and alternatives suggested by these questions before building the Project Plan. When the Project Plan is completed, answer the following questions, and submit them as a Microsoft Word document. “Yes” or “No” answers with no explanations or discussions are not appropriate answers. 

1. What are the names of the first and last tasks in the Project Plan? What are their durations? 

2. Was the team able to view the Project Plan’s critical path? Explain what it showed. 

3. Do any Summary Tasks or Sub-tasks show as manually scheduled ( in the Task Mode column)? If yes, list the task ids and explain what caused that. If not, explain how that was avoided. 

4. Do any Summary Tasks or Sub-tasks show as constrained? (Name of the constraint in the Constraint Type column, or date in the Constraint Date column)? If yes, list the task ids and explain what caused that. If not, explain how that was avoided. 

5. Did the team approach the WBS graphically (like an organization chart, tabularly (like a list or table), or something else? Why?

6. Was the team able to find any external reference that disagreed with these assignment instructions? Explain. • Do not over-engineer dependency links • Constraint Dates are not a good thing • Manually scheduled tasks are not a good thing 

Module 8

*600 words With sample documents attached*

Some of the reasons to use graphics include: catching a reader’s attention; helping to communicate complex information; to clarify and emphasize information; to help non-native speakers understand information; and to communicate information to multiple audiences from diverse backgrounds. Find (or create) some numerical data and write a memo describing the data. 

The memo should describe the purpose and context of the data, and draw at least one conclusion. You should include the data in a table or an appropriate graphical representation (chart) of the data, or both. You should use the guidance given in Chapter 12 of the text. Typically, you would use Excel to create the table and chart, then import them into Word.   

In this assignment you will design

  

Amount 25

 In this assignment, you will design a program to perform the following task:
 

Write a program that would calculate and display the results for the multiplication table for values ranging from 1 to 100.
 

Before attempting this exercise, be sure you have completed all of chapter 4 ,5 and course module readings, participated in the weekly conferences, and thoroughly understand the examples throughout the chapter. There are 3 main components of your submission including the problem analysis, program design and documentation, and sample test data.
 

Provide your analysis for the following problem statement: You need to write a program that would calculate the results for the multiplication table up from 1 to 100. (For example, 1X1, 1X2, 1X3 … 1X10, 2X1, 2X2 …. 10X2 … 10×10). Your program should print the output for each step and output a new line after 10 items. So the example output would be something like this Notice a new line appears after 10 steps:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
 

2 4 6 8 10 … 20
 


 

10 20 30 … 100
 

To write the new lines you can just use code similar to : write “new line”. Hint: You will probably use a nested repetition loop.
 

Your analysis should be clearly written and demonstrate your thought process and steps used to analyze the problem. Be sure to include what is the required output? What is the necessary input and how you will obtain the required output from the given input? Also, include your variable names and definitions. Be sure to describe any necessary formulas and sample calculations.
 

Provide your program design for the program you analyzed for printing the multiplication table. Be sure to describe the fundamental tasks (i.e., things your program must do) needed to solve the problem so you can use a modular design. Provide pseudocode of your overall design that includes the Main module and the order of the module calls, and a Hierarchy chart for the program (see figure 3.8 page 148). Finally, display the flow charts (using Raptor, or your favorite graphics editor) for each module. (See figure 5.3 page 225 as an example.)
 

Include header and step comments in your pseudocode, using a similar approach as the example provided in section 2.3 (textbook page 86). See example 2.8 on pages 87-88).
 

Prepare any input data (Test data) along with expected output for testing your program (Note: Programs may not always have both input and output data. Just provide test cases for your application). Your test data can be presented in the form of a table as was shown in Assignment
 

Submission requirements:
 

Your completed assignment should be saved as Word document and submitted to your WebTycho assignment area no later than the due date listed in the syllabus. Your document should be neat, well-written with minimal grammatical and spelling errors. Your name should be clearly listed on the first page along with the class/section, professor and due date. Your document should contain page numbers at the bottom of each page. Single or double space line formatting is acceptable.
 

You should name the file yournamehw3.docx (or yournamehw3.doc). So if my name was XXXXX XXXXX, I would name my document juliesmithhw3.docx.
 

An example HW3.doc template file containing the required sections is included in the available resources. You should use this document to start your writing and fill in all of the details required.
 

GSR—3.1 Data Gathering Instrument

 

Data Gathering Instrument

Task: Create one (1) instrument that could be used to gather data for your mock dissertation topic. The instrument should be designed to be exactly how it would be deployed to collect data. Since instrumentation usually goes through several steps of field testing, for purposes of this assignment you can submit a deployment-ready draft of your instrument without field testing it. Be sure the instrument collects data appropriately to measure your research question.  If your study will not use an instrument to collect data because your data is archival and already exists, you will discuss your process for data retrieval.

 * Interview Protocol:  (Attachment:  Successful_Learning_Interview_Protocol_Final_Draft.docx)

2 questions 2 paragraphs each- Class Human-Computer Interaction CIS375

Question 1: (One paragraph)

  • Low-fidelity prototypes are mainly used to conduct research on a  product and are not integrated into the final product, while high-fidelity prototypes may evolve into a final product. Compare and contrast the final product that evolves from a high-fidelity product and a product built from the ground up after studying and learning from a  low-fidelity prototype. Provide one example of each type of product to support your response.

Question 2:  (One paragraph)

Please respond to the following:

  • Manufacturers of smartphones design products to be interactive with consumers. To remain competitive, designers are focused on getting a  new product to market as quickly as possible. The user experience (UX)  plays an important role in product development. Imagine that you are a  manager for the product design department of a company. Suggest when it is appropriate to use Lean UX and when it is appropriate to use Agile  UX. Provide a rationale for your response.
