Large Planning is a general term that sets a clear road map that should be followed to reach a destination. The term, therefore, has been used at different levels to mean different things. Planning involves the breakdown of the project into definable, measurable, and identifiable tasks activities, and then establishes the logical interdependences among them. These plans involve four main steps Performing breakdown of work items involved in the project into activities. Identifying the proper sequence by which the activities should be executed. Activities representation. Estimating the resources, time, and cost of individual activities. Planning requires a rigorous effort by the planning team. A planner should know the different categories of work and be familiar with the terminology and knowledge used in general practice. Also, the planning tem should seek the opinion of experts including actual construction experience. This helps produce a realistic plan and avoids problems later on site. P. B. Sudha | Dr. K.

MBA Capstone Project Guidelines
Throughout your MBA program, you have worked to develop as a practitioner-scholar to meet the needs and future challenges as a business leader. Your program culminates in the capstone project, which forms the primary focus of MBA6900, the final course you will take in the program. The capstone project is intended to provide you the opportunity to demonstrate your MBA program outcomes by:
· Planning and executing the strategic and tactical elements of a comprehensive project.
· Integrating and demonstrating skills and techniques you have learned throughout the MBA program.
· Communicating project outcomes both in written form and in a formal presentation.
· Completing your MBA program with an experience that reinforces and integrates the components that have preceded it.
The following information outlines the requirements and work associated with the capstone project for MBA6028 and MBA6900.
Capstone Project Examples
Examples of project types that might be proposed to meet these requirements include but are not limited to:
· Preparation of a strategic plan for an organization.
· A strategic analysis of all or a selected part of an organization.
· Development of a case study of all or a selected part of an organization.
· Development of an intervention, such as a workshop or training activity, that is broad- based enough to demonstrate the program-level outcomes.
· Development of a consulting report on a problematic issue within an organization, provided that the issue is broad-based enough to demonstrate program-level outcomes.
You may propose other structures for the capstone project so long as you are able to identify how the proposed project satisfies the requirement of demonstrating the program-level outcomes. When choosing your topic, keep in mind that your capstone project must result in recommendations, next steps, or some other type of actionable, evidence-based take-aways for the reader or subject of the project.

aspects of a project effort. Completion of this exercise will provide students with an opportunity
to gain experience in developing a risk management plan based on a specific case scenario.
Description
As the assigned Project Manager at Rolls Royce in support of the Enterprise Resource Planning
(ERP) project, you have been asked to create a Risk Management Plan for the effort. Since the
organization is just beginning development of their project management practices, they have

Office (PMO). They are also asking you to develop a Risk Management Plan in support of the
ERP system rollout – using your template. The following two items must be submitted for this
assignment.
1. Template – Risk Management Plan
This will be a blank template with a cover page, section headings, and section
descriptions. Students are expected to develop their own template based on online
research. Search using keywords “Project Risk Management Plan”,“Project Risk
Management Plan Template”, “Project Risk Management Plan Sample”, and “Project
Risk Management Plan Best Practices”.
2. Risk Management Plan
You will use your template to create a risk management plan in support of the course case
study using your template. Leverage details from the case scenario to develop your plan.
You are free to fill in any gaps in the case details to develop a comprehensive plan.
Check with your instructor in regard to any questions related to the case scenario.

QSO 640 Milestone Two Guidelines and Rubric
Overview: In the final project, you will develop a complete project plan for a hypothetical organization. Each milestone assignment will help you complete
portions of the final project. In this milestone, you will evaluate the project manager’s management of team members, resources, conflict, and engagement with
project stakeholders to further improve project implementation using a second case study from your Mindedge resource; the ECO-Trans case study. If you do
not have access to project management software, use the provided templates below:
Standard Requirements Template (Project Planning Part C)
Project Schedule (Project Planning Part E)
Prompt: The goal of this milestone is to delve more deeply into the project planning and project execution areas of project management. As mentioned above,
you are to use the ECO-Trans case study (in MindEdge) to complete this milestone.
Specifically the following critical elements must be addressed:
II. Project Planning
A. Determine the business requirements for the successful development of the project. Justify your choices.
B. Establish who will provide the business requirements. What approach will be used to solicit the requirements from the subject matter experts?
C. Categorize and organize the business requirements in a standard requirements template.
D. Explain why the format for capturing requirements is important to the overall success of the project. Why would we consider requirements’
traceability?
E. Leveraging the business requirements, translate these requirements into a project schedule using project management software through the
provided template.
F. Estimate the duration of project tasks using common business knowledge, and assign resources to complete each task.
G. Refine your estimate of the project cost based on the duration of tasks and resources needed.
III. Project Execution
A. Determine the best implementation approach—agile or waterfall project—for the organization based on its organizational structure. Provide
examples to support your rationale.
B. Explain how the project schedule can be resource leveled, fast-tracked, or crashed if needed based upon execution results.
C. Propose communication approaches and the frequency that should be used to keep leadership apprised of the project execution. Include
examples to support your claims.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Assessment task details and instructions
You have recently been appointed by a large property investor in the UK who wishes to
renovate a house. To keep his costs to a minimum he likes to have only one worker working on
each activity. The property renovation involves various tasks which he estimates will take one
worker the times shown in the table below:
2. Project Management LeadershipandSkills:Planning and Control – Assessment 2
2
Activity Time needed to complete
Substantial repairs to the
roof
5 days
Internal structural work 7 days
Electrical work 5 days
Plumbing 2 days
Plastering 3 days
Installing a new kitchen 3 days
Installing a new bathroom 4 days
Internal decoration 6 days
Garden 4 days
Change windows 2 day
Fitting carpets 2 day
Outside paintwork 5 days
The roof and structural work must be completed before any other activities (inside or outside)
can commence. Once these are done, the other tasks can happen at any stage. However, inside
the house, the plumbing and electrics must be completed before the plastering can be done.
The plastering must be complete before the new kitchen and bathroom can be installed.
Decoration can only happen once the kitchen and bathroom are in place, and carpets can only
be fitted after decorating. The windows have to be changed before the outside paintwork is
started.
The property developer knows that to keep his budget on target, all work needs to be
completed in 6 weeks. His team only works from Monday to Friday. Can it be done? Which
activities is it most important for the property developer to keep on track?
The developer has several other projects on the go at the same time and decides that he can
only spare two of his team to work on this project. By assigning activities to Worker 1 and
Worker 2 show how this is possible.
There are three (3) parts to this assignment, and each is worth a percentage of the final
assignment mark.
Part 1 – 30%
A. Create a network diagram with the critical path clearly marked
B. What are the advantages to the property developer in using critical path analysis to plan
this project?
3. Project Management LeadershipandSkills:Planning and Control – Assessment 2

C. How realistic is the idea of using only two workers to complete the project given the
deadline of six weeks?
You do not need any specialist knowledge of construction to answer this question.
Part 2 - 30%
Review the case above of The House with regard to risk management.
A. Identify at least 5 risks relevant to this project and create a simple risk table showing
how you would manage these risks with appropriate risk controls
B. Discuss how you would derive a risk score for each of these risks explaining what
evidence you could access to support you calculation of impact and probability
C. What are the opportunities available and how would you categorise these strategies?
Please note that you are being assessed on your understanding of risk management and not the
discovery of the ‘correct answer’.
Part 3 – 40%
You have recently hired Kevin, a retired ex-lecturer in project management, to work as part of
your project team on the house build. He is very good at solving technical project problems but
seems to find working in the team very difficult and gives constant negative feedback on his co-
workers. His performance and temper has become progressively worse over time. He seems to
lack motivation and you may have to consider ending his employment. Why might Kevin lack
motivation? Discuss with reference to appropriate theories and case examples; suggest ways in
which Kevin may be motivated.

remember that these do not count towards your word limit. If you do use these, please do not
put them in the appendices if they are part of your discussion. Appendices are the appropriate
places to put supporting material, however, remember if the reader is satisfied with the main
points of your discussion; the supporting information within the appendices may not even be
reviewed.
Please try to use theory explicitly at all stages, but do not spend too much time describing a
theory. While you must be explicit about the theories, models, techniques etc. that you use, you

In Year Retrieval Scheme
Your assessment is not eligible for in year retrieval.
Reassessment
If you fail your assessment, and are eligible for reassessment, you will need to resubmit in a date
that will be notified to you. For students with accepted personal mitigating circumstances, this
will be your replacement assessment attempt. Students should be aware that there is no late
submission period at reassessment (this includes those students who have an accepted PMC
request from a previous attempt). If a student needs to be reassessed, s/he will be given a new
assignment brief with a deadline, which will be provided by the School.
