The case projects.

1. ITP 251Chapter 7

2. SWL Team Task 1

3. SWL Team Task 2

4. SWL Team Task 3 For a paper source document, it would essentially be the same as the previous form. However, instead of links to request additional information, your account balance, and to submit information, you would request the information to be mailed to you.

5. SWL Team Task 4 Users do not want to be confronted by a “wall of text.” In order to keep a user focused on the information you want to convey to them, you must break up ideas into smaller paragraphs. Users become frustrated with verbose web pages and only want to scan the essentials; headings, subheadings, links, graphics, and so forth.

6. Manage the SWL 1(a). Find out what output is needed. Design an output screen. Create a mock-up report. Design an online request form. Design a paper source request form. Update usability via research. List specific guidelines for UI design. Use validation checks for reducing input errors. Design effective source documents and input controls. Describe guidelines for data entry screen design.

7. Manage the SWL 1(b). Concurrent tasks: 1 – Find out what output is needed. 2 – Design an online request form. 3 – Update usability via research. 4 – List specific guidelines for UI design. 5 – Describe guidelines for data entry screen design.

8. Manage the SWL 1(b). (cont.) Sequential tasks: 6 – Design an output screen. 7 – Create a mock-up report. 8 – Design a paper source request form. 9 – Use validation checks for reducing input errors. 10 – Design effective source documents and input controls.

9. Manage the SWL 1(c). Task 6 cannot be completed until task 1 is. Task 7 cannot be completed until task 1 is. Task 8 cannot be completed until task 2 is. Task 9 cannot be completed until task 4 is. Task 10 cannot be completed until task 5 is.

10. Manage the SWL 2 I perused the Wikipedia page on project management. I enjoyed one of the charts that clearly outlined a typical design phase. It describes the phase as: Initiation Planning and Design Executing Monitoring and Controlling Closing However, steps 2-4 may be repeated several times.
