The document discusses three examples of project managers and their responsibilities on different projects:
1) Construction of a retail development with 26 units and a supermarket. Responsible for coordinating contractors to ensure on-time and on-budget completion.
2) Directing trials of a new analgesic drug. Responsible for designing experiments and ensuring proper scientific and legal procedures are followed.
3) Introducing multimedia resources at a teacher training college in New Delhi. Responsible for purchasing and developing resources as well as encouraging acceptance by lecturers and students.

Project Evaluation and Review Technic and Critical Path Method are the effective methods to determining the estimated time for the completion of activities and tasks of a given project.Optimistic time, pessimistic time and most likely time using beta distribution ( bell shaped curve) of Research Methodology.
In this presentation we have done earlier a project for Phillip Morris (Pakistan) for the access control system and canteen management system. It is the project presentation for our subject Planning and Scheduling. i hope it is the best for the understanding Project planning and scheduling.

CPM and PERT are most commonly used methods for project management. There are some similarities and differences between PERT and CPM. PERT can be applied to any field requiring planned, controlled and integrated work efforts to accomplish defined objectives.
Introduce variable/ Indices using landsat imageKabir Uddin
Image Index is a “synthetic image layer” created from the existing bands of a multispectral image. This new layer often provides unique and valuable information not found in any of the other individual bands.
Image index is a calculated result or generated product from satellite band/channels
It helps to identify different land cover from mathematical definition .
Land cover supervised classification at Toro Park, CaliforniaLisa Jensen
Using USGS National Agriculture Imagery Program (NAIP) data, a supervised classification was performed within ERDAS Imagine to provide resource managers a better understanding of land cover at Toro Park, California.
project management-cpm and pert methods for managersNaganna Chetty
A project is a one shot, time limited, goal directed, major undertaking, requiring the commitment of varied skills & resources.
A project:
Has a unique purpose.
Is temporary.
Is developed using progressive elaboration.
Requires resources, often from various areas.
Should have a primary customer or sponsor.
The project sponsor usually provides the direction and funding for the project.
Involves uncertainty.
Project managers work with project sponsors, project teams, and other people involved in projects to meet project goals.
Program: “A group of related projects managed in a coordinated way to obtain benefits and control not available from managing them individually.”
Program managers oversee programs and often act as bosses for project managers.
Project management is “the application of knowledge, skills, tools and techniques to project activities to meet project requirements.”
A project is an interrelated set of activities that has definite starting and ending points and that result in a unique product
or service
• Cuts across organizational lines - they need varied skills of different profession
• Uncertainties like new technology & external environment can change the character of the project
• Personnel, materials, facilities etc. are temporarily assembled to accomplish a goal within a specified time frame and then disbanded
• Upon finish, a project releases lot of resources which were engaged in execution of the project
Introduction
CPM/PERT or Network Analysis as the technique is sometimes called, developed along two parallel streams, one industrial and the other military.
CPM (Critical Path Method) was the discovery of M.R.Walker of E.I.Du Pont de Nemours & Co. and J.E.Kelly of Remington Rand, circa 1957. The computation was designed for the UNIVAC-I computer. The first test was made in 1958, when CPM was applied to the construction of a new chemical plant. In March 1959, the method was applied to maintenance shut-down at the Du Pont works in Louisville, Kentucky. Unproductive time was reduced from 125 to 93 hours.
PERT (Project Evaluation and Review Technique) was devised in 1958 for the POLARIS missile program by the Program Evaluation Branch of the Special Projects office of the U.S.Navy, helped by the Lockheed Missile Systems division and the Consultant firm of Booz-Allen & Hamilton. The calculations were so arranged so that they could be carried out on the IBM Naval Ordinance Research Computer (NORC) at Dahlgren, Virginia.
Network Diagrams: It is defined as “the identification of the project objectives and the ordered activity necessary to complete the project including the identification of resource types and quantities required.”

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”.
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.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2. What exactly is a project? PM 1 – I’m in charge of the construction of a retail development in the centre of a large town. There are 26 retail units and a super market in the complex. My main responsibilities are to co-ordinate the work of the various contractors to ensure that the project is completed to specification, within budget and on time. PM 2 – I am directing a team of research scientists. We are running trials on a new analgesic drug on behalf of a pharmaceutical company. It is my responsibility to design the experiments and make sure that proper scientific and legal procedures are followed, so that our results can be subjected to independent statistical analysis. PM 3- The international aid agency which employs me is sending me to New Delhi to organize the introduction of multimedia resources at a teachers’ training college. My role is quite complex. I have to make sure that appropriate resources are purchased- and in some cases developed within the college. I also have to encourage the acceptance of these resources by lecturers and students within the college.
