Activities
|
1
|
Project triple
imperative
|
project - tomorrow day
(waterfall type)
|
The logic of compiling
activities, budget, risks, the goal of the day
|
|
Choose a
project topic (what is appropriate to use as a project-feedback with the
teacher)
|
brainstorming
in groups
|
10 minutes to
write down ideas, students choose about 3 options and then determine the
"+" and "-" of their idea (advantages and disadvantages,
whether it is feasible to implement it as a project)
|
2
|
Compliance check -
tomorrow's project goals
|
feedback
|
Discussions,
implementation problems, learning from mistakes
|
|
Work on point
no. 1 Project definition (being processed 1.1 to 1.5)
|
SMART -
setting the goal of the project; Organizational structure of the project
(diagram); RACI matrix
|
Preparation
of the project goal, determination: of results, benefits of the project,
identification of the main target group, the definition of the problem solution
(which will be solved through the project)
|
3
|
Check if sections 1.1
to 1.5 are complete
|
feedback
|
Discussion, exchange
of knowledge, the teacher gives feedback to the teams (questions, problems
with the topic, etc.)
|
|
The logical framework of the project (LFM), point no. 1.6
|
logical
framework matrix (LFM)
|
Students
compile LFM - horizontal and vertical logic in the matrix (achieving the
goal, dividing the project into parts, identification of outputs). The logic,
if it is fulfilled, I can move on to the project solution.
|
4
|
Check if the LFM is
complete
|
feedback
|
Discussion, exchange
of knowledge, the teacher gives feedback to the teams (questions, problems
with the topic, etc.)
|
|
Project
structure (points 2.1 to 2.4)
|
decision
analysis
|
Students compile
variants of problem-solving options: 1. I do nothing = current situation, 2.
I do minimum = minimal change, 3. I do something = a fundamental change that
causes benefits and brings a new result/output
|
5
|
Check if points 2.1 to
2.4) are complete
|
feedback, emphasis on
awareness of variants (possibilities) and associated advantages/disadvantages
|
Discussion, exchange
of knowledge, the teacher gives feedback to the teams (questions, problems
with the topic, etc.)
|
|
Project schedule
(point no. 2.5)
|
Gantt Chart
|
Use of MS
Project (start of the project, setting the calendar, division of the project
into main and partial tasks, chronology (continuity) of tasks, setting
milestones, critical paths
|

Project schedule
(point no. 2.5)
|
Gantt Chart
|
Use of MS Project
(start of the project, setting the calendar, division of the project into
main and partial tasks, chronology (continuity) of tasks, setting milestones,
critical paths
|
|
|
Work
Breakdown Structure (WBS), Gantt Chart
|
Use of MS
Project, a compilation of WBS, work with Gantt chart
|
7
|
Checking the project
schedule (point no. 2.5) - finished Gant Chart, WBS
|
feedback - emphasis on
logic and chronology of activities, links between tasks, timeline
|
Discussion, exchange
of knowledge, the teacher gives feedback to the teams (questions, problems
with the topic, etc.)
|
|
Project costs
(point no. 2.6)
|
project
budgeting techniques (according to stages, according to the package of works,
according to direct/indirect costs)
|
Selection of
a suitable technique for determining the project budget (students do not have
to use all of them, just one, but well-designed). Brainstorming within teams,
discussion, decision making, data acquisition
|

|
Project costs (point
no. 2.6)
|
project budgeting
techniques (according to stages, according to the package of works, according
to direct/indirect costs)
|
Selection of a
suitable technique for determining the project budget (students do not have
to use all of them, just one, but well-designed). Brainstorming within teams,
discussion, decision making, data acquisition
|
|
Extension to
sub-budgets (points 2.6.2 to 2.6.4)
|
budget for
tolerances (reserves) changes to budget, and budget for risks - this is
supplemented only after the risk analysis
|
Brainstorming
within teams, discussion, decision-making, and data acquisition.
|
9
|
Return on investment
(point 2)
|
Return on Investment
Method - ROI
Payback Method
Net Present Value on Investment (NPV) method
Internal Rate of Return (IRR) method
Cost-output evaluation methods
Cost-benefit method - Cost-Benefit Analysis All
methods are presented in more detail in the lecture
|
Selection of a
suitable method for calculating the return on investment (the main purpose of
the project - must have a certain benefit plus return on investment). Not all
methods need to be applied, just choose one suitable method and justify the
result.
|
10
|
Checking
project costs and return on investment
|
feedback
|
Discussion,
exchange of knowledge, the teacher gives feedback to the teams (questions,
problems with the topic, etc.)
|
|
Project product
description (points 3.1 to 3.4)
|
drawing, or creation
of a prototype/model of the project product
|
Creative techniques -
what the final product of the project will look like, its composition. It can
be a photo of a model, drawing, prototype, etc. The goal is to have a clear
idea of what the final product of the project should look like and what it
will consist of.
|
11
|
Description of
the project product (points 3.5 to 3.8)
|
Product user
empathy map, Value Added Canvas can also be used
|
Students will
compile a map of project user empathy, expectations for quality, acceptance
criteria, quality tolerance, responsibility for product acceptance
|
12
|
Checking the product description
(whole point no. 3)
|
feedback
|
Discussion, exchange
of knowledge, the teacher gives feedback to the teams (questions, problems
with the topic, etc.)
|
|
Identification
of threats and risks of the project (point no. 4 of the template)
|
RIPRAN
|
The
individual steps for the identification of threats and subsequent risks
(RIPRAN), the definition of the impact of the risk, the determination of
measures against threats, and the determination of the method of risk mitigation,
including costs and liability, are compiled.
|
13
|
Conclusion -
evaluation, and summary of the main findings of the project (point no. 5 of
the template). The final presentation of your project (defense).
|
Summarization of
information (deductive logic)
|
Interpretation of data
and information: the project is desirable - costs vs. benefits vs.
risks; viability of the project, whether the project will deliver
outputs, results, and whether the project is achievable - the results
of the project will provide benefits.
Presentation of the project.
