1) Project Attributes – Describe the attributes
of a project. What are your
expectations as major stakeholders in this class (CIS1513)? What do you expect to get out of the
class? What do you expect from the
instructor, the classmates, and yourself in order for the class to be a
success?
According to Kathy Schwalbe the
attributes of a project are:
A project has a well-defined purpose.
A project is temporary.
A project is defined broadly in the
beginning but gets more specific during its life-span.
A project requires various resources.
A project has a sponsor.
A project’s outcome is uncertain.
As a major stakeholder in this class I
expect to gain a better understanding of project management as it pertains to IT. I expect to be able to have a deeper
comprehension of the processes at my current organization. I expect from the instructor that the
information will be conveyed in an understandable and digestible manner and I
expect from my fellow students to also try to get what they can from the class. Like receiving a driver’s license allows you
to drive, and with experience and time you become a better driver, this course
will provide the ground work for the understanding of how project management
should work and allow me to become a better project manager. I expect that I will do the reading, the
assignments, and try to do well enough in the class to pass it and to have it affect
my career positively. I expect honesty and forthrightness from all involved and
a commitment to help each other and learn as a group to improve our
abilities. I expect from myself to
commit to my fellow classmates and team mates to provide the most accurate and
timely information that I can.
I agree with this answer completely. Teamwork is key in this class.
ReplyDeleteI also hope to be better at my job and a better team member at work.
ReplyDeleteAlso, finishing the Web Development Specialist Certificate program is something that I expect to get from this class too.
