This document discusses how to apply lean principles to project management. It begins with an overview of project management basics like the project lifecycle and key knowledge areas. It then covers lean concepts such as the seven types of waste and 5S. The document proposes integrating lean tools into each stage of a project, such as using a visual board ("Obeya") for planning and daily stand-ups ("huddles") for monitoring progress. The overall message is that combining lean thinking with established project management practices can help complete projects faster, with fewer defects and higher customer satisfaction.

Estimate budget and project crashing.pptxMIANMNADEEM
The document discusses project budget estimation and project crashing. It provides an introduction to project budgeting, noting that senior management must approve the budget to obtain resources. It then discusses top-down and bottom-up budgeting approaches. Project crashing is defined as shortening a project's timeline, typically by adding more resources, and key stages in project crashing management are outlined, including establishing crash objectives, identifying critical paths, finding crash limits, and selecting economic options to present for approval. The importance of being able to crash projects in response to changing needs is also highlighted.
This module discusses various aspects of project planning and management, including tracking project progress, time tracking, risk management, and project evaluation. Effective project tracking through tasks, resources, meetings, and reporting allows project managers to monitor progress and address any issues. Time delays should be managed by offering help for initial delays, taking immediate action after a second delay, and considering replanning after a third delay. Project metrics can provide status, identify improvement areas, and demonstrate results. Regular risk monitoring ensures assumptions remain valid and risks are accurately assessed. Project closure activities include releasing resources, transition planning, and documentation.
The document summarizes the typical project life cycle process used by project managers. It consists of 5 phases: (1) initiating, (2) planning, (3) executing, (4) monitoring/controlling, and (5) closing. Each phase involves certain key activities and defines the stages a project goes through from start to finish. Following a structured life cycle framework helps ensure projects are completed on time and on budget.
The purpose of this article is to conceptualize and identify troubled projects and allow their evaluation and possible recovery, minimizing the impact of the negative effects in the event of a total failure. The word recovery, as used here, has a meaning that is different than usual. It does not mean leading the project to the intended success from the planning phase but to minimize total failure.

Chapter 1 Evaluation and Social Work Making the ConnectionP.docxzebadiahsummers
Chapter 1 Evaluation and Social Work: Making the Connection
Page 4
Let’s begin by considering three important questions: 1. Is evaluation an important area of social work? 2. Is the evaluator role an important one for social workers? 3. How can evaluations help improve or enhance social work interventions? These questions may be your questions as you begin to read this book. They are questions that many social work students and practitioners have pondered. This book is about evaluation so the responses to the first two questions, in brief, will be no surprise to you. Yes, evaluation is an important area of social work. Further, the evaluator role is an important role for every social worker to prepare to assume. Some social workers will be evaluators of programs, and virtually every social worker will be an evaluator of their own practice. It’s like asking whether social workers need to know whether they are doing a good job, or asking them if they know whether their interventions are effective in helping their clients. The third question, asking how evaluation can help improve social work interventions, is the focus of this text.
The underlying theme driving the book is that evaluation is a vital element of any social work approach and is critical for ensuring that social work actually does work! A reassuring theme is that evaluation is a practice area that BSW and MSW students and practitioners alike can learn. Social workers and students wanting to maximize their impact in their jobs will find that the perspective, knowledge, ethics, and skills of evaluations covered in this book are a central component of practice and ensure that you will have a much greater impact on your clients’ well-being. This book provides the needed preparation for evaluation in both a comprehensive and a readable format. The primary emphasis is on the various kinds of small and mid-range formative evaluations that are often implemented at the local agency level; less emphasis is placed on the large, com-plex national and regional studies that may draw the most coverage under the title evaluation. These smaller formative evaluations are also the critical ones that social work students and graduates either are assigned or should consider taking on in their field placements and employment agencies. Such

evaluations often are instrumental in determining whether the programs in which you are working will continue and possibly expand. Example of a Small, Formative Evaluation An agency that provides an anger management program to perpetrators of domestic violence offers a series of ten psychoeducational group sessions to help them manage their anger. The agency also conducts an evaluation of this program that is integral to it. An anger management scale is used to measure changes that occur in the participants’ anger after they have completed all ten sessions of a group program. Throughout the series, the specific items of the anger management scale (e.g., be.
Changes in the Human Figure in ArtYou likely noticed that during.docxzebadiahsummers
Changes in the Human Figure in Art
You likely noticed that during the two hundred years covered in this week’s study there were radical changes in how the human figure is depicted in Italy, from something that was highly stylized to an idealized form that looked more real yet was strongly influenced by the Classical Age of ancient Greece and Rome. In Northern Europe, however, depiction of the human form remained somewhat stylized.
Use the textbook and/or online sources to locate and capture three works of art.
one from the Early Renaissance (fourteenth century, 1300–1399)
one from the Northern European Renaissance (fifteenth century, 1400–1499)
one from the Italian Renaissance (fifteenth century, 1400–1499)
Your works of art must either be all paintings or all sculptures.
First, place images of your selected works in a Word document. Then do the following:
For each work identify:
The artist
Title of the work of art
The date(s) it was created
The medium or materials used to create the work of art, such as oil paint, marble, etc.
Where the work is located now.
In a
well-developed
paragraph, provide at least two important historical facts about each work.
In another well-developed paragraph, describe how each artist depicted the human figure, supporting your observation using art historical vocabulary from this week's reading.
Then, In a 6–10-sentence concluding paragraph:
Compare and contrast how the depiction of the human figure has changed. Be sure to note such things as general appearance of the figures; their body types; whether the figures have been stylized, elongated, or idealized; and whether their clothing, colors, and other visual details have changed.
Based on your reading and what you learned from the historic facts you have for each work of art discuss what may have been influencing factors behind these changes.
Offer a citation of your sources for each image and the information provided as appropriate.

chapter 8 notes – Asian Americans model minoritieschapter b.docxzebadiahsummers
chapter 8 notes – Asian Americans: model minorities?
chapter begins with a story of a sociologist, riding in a taxi
- he was born in the US of Japanese heritage (grandfather came to US in 1880s)
- taxi drive asks him how long he was in the US (the answer is since birth)
- brings up the perception of ‘other’ around Asian Americans
focus of this chapter: Chinese Americans and Japanese Americans (oldest Asian groups in the US; often considered to be ‘model minorities’)
- model minorities stereotype: successful, affluent, highly educated, not suffer from minority group status (remember this is a stereotype)
why an increase in immigration from the Philippines and India into the US?
- both colonized
— India by Britain
— Philippines 1st by Spain, then the US
current demographics
- Asian Americans are about 5.6% of the total population (2012) – see table 8.1 above
— contrasted with African Americans (13%) and Hispanic Americans (16%)
- overall, rapid growth in numbers of Asian Americans in US recently
— one reason: immigration changes in 1965
— one of the largest growing groups – Asian Indians
— rapid growth is expected to continue
- 10 largest Asian groups in fig 8.1 below
- high percentage of foreign born in Asian American population
— 88% of Asian Americans are either 1st generation (foreign born) or 2nd generation (their children)
— — see figure 8.2 below
- similar to Hispanic Americans, Asian Americans are
+ likely to identify with country of origin 1st
origins and cultures
great diversity in languages, cultures, religions
- Asian cultures are much older than the founding of the US
- these cultures are quite different from each other, but there are some similarities
similarities:
- group membership is more important than the individual
— some of above from Confucianism which emphasizes a person is one part of the larger social system, one part of the status hierarchy
— — therefore loyalty to group, conformity to societal expections and respect for superiors are important
- it is important to be sensitive to the opinions and judgements of others; avoid public embarrassment, giving offence
— guilt / shame dichotomy
— — Asian cultures: emphasis on not bringing shame to the family / group from others (if someone goes against societal expectations, they are bringing shame onto their family / group)
— — — emphasis on proper behavior, conformity to convention and how others judge one, avoid embarressment (to self or to others), avoid personal confrontations

Challenges and Resources for Nurses Participating in a Hurrica.docxzebadiahsummers
The document discusses a study exploring nurses' perspectives on challenges and resources during an evacuation of New York University Langone Medical Center due to Hurricane Sandy in 2012. Qualitative interviews with nurses found that their prior experience with Hurricane Irene led them to underestimate the severity of Hurricane Sandy. Most nurses had limited personal or hospital-based disaster training. The evacuation presented significant challenges due to lack of experience, training, and unclear policies. However, nurses drew on support from colleagues, leadership, and personal resourcefulness to respond effectively. The study aims to inform disaster preparedness education to better support nurses' roles.

Centralized System for Strategic ResourcesIntroductionAttentio.docxzebadiahsummers
Centralized System for Strategic Resources
Introduction
Attention: According to recent news reports, US states are competing with each other to shop for medical supplies such as masks, PPE (personal protective equipment), and ventilators. Sometimes, states are even battling with the federal government for bidding, which pushed the prices for such supplies even higher and caused a lot of chaos.
Reveal Topic: A centralized system for strategic resources means that the federal government would represent all individual states and make purchases globally as a single outward-facing entity. Then resources will be coordinated and allocated to individual states.
Credibility: New York State Governor Cuomo states that it is very problematic to keep the current chaotic and unorganized systems. It costs more for taxpayers and could be life-threatening.
Central Idea: US federal government should establish a centralized system for buying, coordinating, and allocating strategic resources such as medical supplies.
Preview: Today, I will talk about why the lack of a centralized system for strategic resources could be costly and even deadly and the benefits of a centralized system.
Transition: Now let's first have a look at the harmful impacts of the current unorganized situation.
Body
I. Main Point #1 (statement of the need for action): Since the unorganized bidding for medical supplies is causing chaos and uncertainty, there should be a way to organize the bidding efforts so that all states can be allocated sufficient supplies.
A. (Description of the problem) The demand for medical supplies is high across all states in the United States amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
1. (signs, symptoms, effects of problem) Due to an increase in coronavirus cases, the low supply of medical resources, and the existence of numerous bidders in the market, States are experiencing a surge in the need for medical supplies (Lara, Rand, and Bartley).
2. (example, narrative, or testimony) The current situation in the country has slowed down the capacity of states to procure PPEs and has also augmented the costs (Triggle).
B. (Importance of problem) There is no efficient way to facilitate the process as everyone is trying to purchase the same thing.
1. (extent of problem) In the past, states in the U.S have worked closely with regional officials when faced with emergencies such as hurricanes, but the current unprecedented situation has affected all states simultaneously and has made the process murkier.
a. (facts/statistics) There is a bidding war between the various states and local governments as all states in the U.S are desperate to find a solution to meet the needs of their healthcare professionals in their fight against the spread of COVID-19 (Lara, Rand, and Bartley).
b. (expert/narrative) According to Casey Tingle, deputy director of the Louisiana Governor’s Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness, it is not clear whether the federal administration can p.

FS 1513 Observation Project Details
Time Involved
Students enrolled in FS 1513 are expected to complete at least 15 hours of observations related to human development. This work will involve creating a journal entry for each of their observational sessions. There should be entries for at least 15 hours of observations by the end of the semester.
There should be 1 journal entry for each time you observe—whether it is for 1 hour or more—there should only be 1 entry. So, if you observed 3 times in 1 week for 1 hour each time then you would need 3 journal entries. Alternately, if you observed 1 time for 3 hours then you would need 1 journal entry. However, this means that there will be less information to assess your work (i.e., 1 mistake can cost more points).
Observations: Who and Where
Part of the purpose of this project is to observe differences in development across the life span. So, observations should involve people from different age ranges over the course of the semester. Some entries should focus on development observed during childhood (i.e., observing children from infancy through grade-school), others should involve observing development during adolescence (i.e., observing pubescent and adolescent children), and others should involve should involve observing development during adulthood (i.e., observing adults from early to later in life). The important point is that observations should be completed for at least three age groups for the entire semester.
Observations should take place in naturalistic settings. Naturalistic means that people should be observed in place where they would normally be present (i.e., not in a lab). Ideally, this would mean that they are able to behave as they normally would. The goal, however, is to have enough time to observe a person so that they can demonstrate what they have developed. This means that you will need to be able to watch them behaving naturally for the duration of your observation (i.e., at least 1 hour). Observations that are less than 1 hour will not be counted as complete.
Formatting
Journal entries using the appropriate templates should be completed for each observation session. The templates (available on the course website and below) should contain all of the identifying information. Journal entries that do not use the template will not be graded.
First, each journal entry must contain documentary information. This should cover (1) who did the observations and who was observed, (2) where and when did the observations happen, (3) what were the people being observed generally like, (4) what was the setting like, and (5) keep tr.

4. The triple constraint refers to the three attributes that must be
managed effectively for successful completion and closure of
any project:
Scope. The project scope is the definition of what the project is
supposed to accomplish—its outcomes or deliverables. Scope is
measured in terms of the project size, goals, and requirements.
Time. A project is made up of tasks. Each task has a start date
and an end date. The duration of a project extends from the start
date of the first task to the finish date of the last task. Time
needed to produce the deliverables is naturally related to the
scope and availability of resources allocated to the project.
Cost. This is the estimation of the amount of money that will be
required to complete the project. Cost itself encompasses
various things, such as resources, labor rates for contractors,
risk estimates, and bills of materials, et cetera. All aspects of
the project that have a monetary component are made part of the
overall cost structure. Projects are approved subject to their
costs.
These constraints are interrelated so they must be managed
together for the project to be completed on time, within budget,
and to specification.
5. Scope creep refers to the growth of the project, which might
seem inconsequential to the requestor. Scope creep is the piling

System Development Life Cycle
Project Management Concepts
System Development Life Cycle
System Development Life Cycle (SDLC)
The traditional system development method for large IT
projects, such as IT infrastructure or an enterprise system.
A structured framework that consists of a sequential set of
processes.
Highly susceptible to scope creep through:
Additional feature requests
Unnecessary stakeholders
Technological change/improvement
19. 1. The systems development life cycle (SDLC) is the traditional
systems development method for large IT projects, such as IT
infrastructure or an enterprise system. The SDLC is a structured
framework that consists of a sequential set of processes.
Starting with an initial idea, the SDLC processes are
requirements analysis, systems analysis and design,
development and testing, implementation, and maintenance.
Each process consists of well-defined tasks that depend on the
scope of the project. The processes are iterative, which means
that they are revised when new information or conditions make
a revision the smart thing to do. Iteration does not mean that
system development should be subject to infinite revisions or
scope creep.
2. IS design is highly susceptible to scope creep for many
reasons. Intended users ask for additional features. People who
were not intended users ask to be included. Technology changed
from the time the business case was written and system
development began. The actions of a competitor, supplier, or
regulatory agency triggered additional requests for
functionality.
3. Because scope creep is expensive, project managers impose
controls on changes requested by users. These controls help to
prevent runaway projects.
4. The feasibility study determines the probability of success of
the proposed project and provides a rough assessment of the
project‘s technical, economic, organizational, and behavioral
feasibility. The feasibility study is critically important to the
systems development process because, done properly, the study
can prevent organizations from making expensive mistakes,
such as creating systems that will not work, that will not work
efficiently, or that people cannot or will not use. The Census
20. Bureau case in IT at Work 13.1 is an example. The various
feasibility analyses also give the stakeholders an opportunity to
decide what metrics to use to measure how a proposed system
meets their objectives.
Technical Feasibility. Technical feasibility determines if the
required technology, IT infrastructure, data structures,
analytics, and resources can be developed and/or acquired to
solve the business problem. Technical feasibility also
determines if the organization‘s existing technology can be used
to achieve the project’s performance objectives.
Economic Feasibility. Economic feasibility determines if the
project is an acceptable financial risk and if the company can
afford the expense and time needed to complete the project.
Economic feasibility addresses two primary questions: Do the
benefits outweigh the costs of the project? Can the project be
completed as scheduled?
Management can assess economic feasibility by using cost–
benefit analysis and financial techniques such as time value of
money, return on investment (ROI), net present value (NPV),
and breakeven analysis. Return on investment is the ratio of the
net income attributable to a project divided by the average cost
of resources invested in the project. NPV is the net amount by
which project benefits exceed project costs, after allowing for
the cost of capital and the time value of money. Breakeven
analysis calculates the point at which the cumulative cash flow
from a project equals the investment made in the project.
Calculating economic feasibility in IT projects is rarely
straightforward. Part of the difficulty is that some benefits are
intangible. For a proposed system that involves big data, real
time analytics, or 3D printing, there may be no previous
evidence of what sort of financial payback can be expected.
Legal and organizational feasibility. Are there legal, regulatory,
or environmental reasons why the project cannot or should not
be implemented? This analysis looks at the company’s policies
and politics, including impacts on power distribution and
business relationships.
21. Behavioral feasibility. Behavioral feasibility considers human
issues. All system development projects introduce change, and
people generally resist change. Overt resistance from employees
may take the form of sabotaging the new system (e.g., entering
data incorrectly) or deriding the new system to anyone who will
listen. Covert resistance typically occurs when employees
simply do their jobs using their old methods.
Behavioral feasibility is concerned with assessing the skills and
the training needed to use the new IS. In some organizations, a
proposed system may require mathematical or linguistic skills
beyond what the workforce currently possesses. In others, a
workforce may simply need to improve their skills. Behavioral
feasibility is as much about “can they use it” as it is about “will
they use it.”
After the feasibility analysis, a “Go/No-Go” decision is
reached. The project sponsor and project manager sign off on
the decision. If it is a no-go decision, the project is put on the
shelf until conditions are more favorable, or the project is
discarded. If the decision is “go,” then the system development
project proceeds.
5. Four conversion strategies are parallel, direct cut over, pilot,
and phased.
In a parallel conversion, the old system and the new system
operate simultaneously for a period of time. That is, both
systems process the same data at the same time, and the outputs
are compared. This type of conversion is the most expensive but
least risky.
In a direct conversion, the old system is cut off and the new
system is turned on at a certain point in time. This type of
conversion is the least expensive, but it is the most risky if the
new system does not work as planned.
A pilot conversion introduces the new system in one location to
22. test it out. After the new system works properly, it is rolled out.
A phased conversion introduces components of the new system,
such as individual modules, in stages. Each module is assessed,
and, when it works properly, other modules are introduced until
the entire new system is operational.
