LEARNING TEAM ASSIGNMENTS

 

Description

The purpose of the Learning Team project is to introduce you to the methodology used to develop systems in either a single-user or a multi-user environment, and to familiarize you with the System Development Life Cycle (SDLC).  You will be introduced to SDLC in Week One.  System solutions are a large capital investment in today’s business world, and the application of such large investments must be based on specific business needs and subsequent returns.  System projects are being held accountable for meeting business needs.  It is therefore critical to identify and articulate both verbally and quantifiably, those business needs in order to obtain successful information technology solution projects.

 

Objective

Apply the System Development Life Cycle methodology.

 

Standards

Refer to “Standards for Written Work” and “Standards for Presentations” in your Program Handbook, which can be accessed through the University of Phoenix eCampus Web site.

 

Written Report

Students will select a business situation that requires an information system solution and develop a written proposal for a project that will meet the business needs.

 

The deliverables specified in each of the following learning team meetings become a part of the learning team project submitted in week 5.  There will be no learning team deliverables required until the final project is due in week 5.
