Software Project Management | An Overview of the Software Project ManagementAhsan Rahim
Management is the process of getting things done through others, it is the process of coordinating people & other resources to achieve the goals of the organization. A project is a set of related tasks that are coordinated to achieve a specific objective in a given time limit. A project is well-defined task, which is a collection of several operations done in order to achieve a goal. Software is the program & all associated documentation & configuration data which is needed to make these programs operate correctly.
A Software Project is the complete procedure of software development from requirement gathering to testing & maintenance, carried out according to the execution methodologies, in a specified period of time to achieve intended software product.

PROJECT SCOPE MANAGEMENT
This chapter deals with the processes required to ensure that the project includes
all the work required, and only the work required, to complete the project suc-
cessfully. This is also known as the Project Scope Management, which is covered
in Chapter 5 of the PMBOK ® Guide . There are four cases in this chapter — three
critical incidents and one issue - based case.
1. Workshop: Project Definition
This critical incident discusses an example of a scope statement used
in practice. Detailed explanations of the components made up of the project
definition in general are discussed. Please note that Workshop is a series of
critical incident cases, where further discussion is presented in Chapters 6 , 7 ,
and 8 on various subjects.
2. Work Breakdown Structure as a Skeleton for Integration
This is an issue - based case that discusses the WBS construction and
potential concerns that might arise if the construction is not validated with
major parties of the project.
3. Project Anatomy
Project Anatomy, an issue - based case, centers on the project decomposi-
tion issue. The team desires to decompose every major project ’ s effort and
make sure that the project is on strategy. Logically, the project anatomy might
be equivalent to the WBS with some differences.

PROJECT SCOPE STATEMENTPURPOSE Generally describes the proje.docxtarifarmarie
PROJECT SCOPE STATEMENT
PURPOSE: Generally describes the project’s deliverables and the work required to create those deliverables. The project scope statement provides a common understanding of the project scope among all project stakeholders and describes the project’s major objectives. It also enables the project team to perform more detailed planning, guides the project team’s work during execution, and provides the baseline for evaluating whether requests for changes or additional work are contained within or outside the project’s boundaries.

Project Objectives
Project objectives include the measurable success criteria of the project, e.g., “SMART.” Projects may have a wide variety of business, cost, schedule, technical, and quality objectives. Project objectives can also include cost, schedule, and quality targets. Each project objective has attributes such as cost, volume, etc., a metric, and an absolute or relative value.
Product Scope Definition
Describes the characteristics of the product, service, or result that the project was undertaken to create. These characteristics will generally have less detail in early phases and more detail in later phases as they are progressively elaborated. While the form and substance of the characteristics will vary, the scope description should always provide sufficient detail to provide later project scope planning. Build off the high level scope statement as provided in the Project Charter.
Project Requirements
Describes the conditions or capabilities that must be met or possessed by the deliverables of the project to satisfy a contract, standard, specification or other formally imposed document. Analyses of all stakeholder needs, wants, and expectations are translated into prioritized requirements.

· Requirement #2 …
Resource Requirements
Describes the resource requirements, and whether resources will be acquired internally, externally, or a combination thereof.
Project Boundaries (Inclusions and Exclusions)
Identifies generally what is included within the project. It also states explicitly what is excluded from the project, if a stakeholder might assume that a particular product, service, or result could be a component of the project.
Critical Success Factors
Document the factors that will ensure the success or failure of the project.
Project Deliverables
Deliverables include both the outputs that comprise the product or service of the project, as well as ancillary results, such as project management reports and documentation. They describe what the clients will get when the project is completed.
Product Acceptance Criteria
Defines the process and criteria for accepting completed products.

Being entrusted to initiate and plan your company’s new project can be a great responsibility—and it’s something you don’t want to mess up.
Project initiation, the process by which you start a project, and project planning, the process in which you create schedules and plan a project systematically, are integral to the project management process.
Project planning, the most important phase of the project management process, should be executed well, as poor planning may lead to serious problems and setbacks later.
Below, we list the twelve steps of the project management process that can help you get started initiating and planning a successful project.
Step 1: Develop Project Charter
The first step to starting your new project is to develop your project charter. Basically, your charter will serve as your project’s mission statement and serve as your guide throughout the project. In your charter, you should define the scope of your project (what you plan to do) as well as an overview of how it will be done (who will do what).
Successful project charters are prepared from information from three main sources: contracts, Service Level Agreements (SLA), and Letters of Award.
Your contracts are the agreements between you (the service provider) and your client. Your SLA is a special type of contract in which you and your client define and agree to the scope and deliverables of the project, and your Letter of Award states that you’ve won a particular bid for the project.
Within your project charter, be sure to provide a comprehensive overview of the scope and direction of the project. Also known as your project’s content, this information is key to the success and to the professionalism of your charter.
This document signifies to your project manager that (s)he has permission to start work on the tasks, as laid out in the charter. Having a clear direction, purpose, and high-level project description can keep all parties on the same page and help your team to provide a service as agreed to with your client.
In order to do this, your charter should include any and all requirements and key deliverables as well as provide a general milestone schedule. Parties responsible for the project, such as the project manager, the project sponsor, and keyholders, should be listed.
Step 2: Identify Stakeholders
It’s imperative that you identify all stakeholders while developing your project charter. Stakeholders are any individual, group, or organization that will be affected by the outcome of the project.
In order to do this, most organizations run what’s called a stakeholder analysis. This analysis identifies the stakeholders in a project and determines what outcome the project should provide to each one.
A stakeholder register is also made. This register identifies project stakeholders and lists their influence over its outcome.
Before commencement of any project, the first thing that we need to do is project planning. Any reasonable project manager* certainly understands importance of planning a project well. Carefully planned project takes into account necessary aspects of a project (e.g. tasks, milestone, schedule,risks, communication, quality, etc.) and provide a plan which project team can refer during execution.
Project delivery spans the entire lifecycle, from idea to customer and market approval. It involves everyone across the enterprise working together with a shared understanding of how the product should solve customer problems and satisfy needs.

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.

While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
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.

3. The difference between the product scope and the project scope is one of the
most important topics in the PMP exam.
Product scope and project scope seem synonymous to many but aren’t.
People find it difficult to distinguish between the two, often. Let’s study how
one is different from the other.
4. What is Product Scope?
The features that describe and characterize a product, or service is its
product scope. It essentially is about what a product or service will
look, or feel like, how will it function, what will its features be, etc.
5. Example:
If the product is a bridge, the product scope might be its length,
width, load strength, etc.
6. How is Product scope determined:
Defining the product scope is important, before a project is initiated by the
organization. A well-defined product scope will yield to a well-defined project
scope.
Clear specifications from the client, essentially contribute to a clear product scope.
Every effort should be made to make the product scope as accurate as possible.
Even the slightest of changes to the product scope, can cost you well. Major issues
could be faced in the later stages of the product, if clear specifications are not
established in the product scope.
8. The work carried out to make and deliver the product or service, with its specified
features, is the project scope.
Like the product scope is about the product, the project scope is about the project. It
is essential to make a documented project scope, so as to have clear details of who
will do what, to execute the project, within its budget and time schedule.
So, to put it simply, the project scope includes all there is to ensure that the product
scope is achieved.
9. Example:
If you have been given a project to build a bridge, in this case the project
scope will tell you how you are going to build the bridge. It gives you all the
required information to construct the bridge
10. How is project scope determined:
A project scope statement is developed after a well-defined product description
is received. Relevant stake holders are contacted to collect requirements, compile
them, and get management approval to form the project scope.
12. To simplify the difference between the two, let’s elucidate an example.
Say your organization has got a project to build a cruise ship. The client has
furnished all his requirements, pertaining to the size of the ship, the
amenities it will have, the number of rooms, the size of the helipad, the
colour of the ship etc.,
You make a budget estimation, create a schedule, and develop a plan.
After the plan is approved, you assemble a team and start to execute the
plan.
Once the construction is complete, the client is asked to verify, if it suits his
requirements. If the client is satisfied, the ship is handed over to him, and
after the payment is processed, the project is closed.
13. The client gives you requirements to build a product (in this case, a ship) for him.
These requirements form the scope of the product.
You work to build the ship, within the scheduled time and budget, while meeting
the product requirements. The work that ensued the completion of the
