Session 12 - 16 Working on your projects

You should have completed the Design Brief or be very close to finishing it.

Once you have completed your proposal, you can start to develop your website.

As mentioned previously, I recommend trying a couple of the website builders to see if they work for you and have a template that is suitable. When looking at templates, don't get bogged down with the style and colouring - look at the features and layout. You can always change graphics, colours, and of course content.

Some tools that you can use to help with this process:

Session 11: Tracking, Closure and Review

Image
Tracking your Project with Project Libre There are multiple ways of entering "real" data into your project. You can use timesheets and enter details by the day/hour for each resource or you can add the information into each task. For a small project, I find that the easiest method is to add the actual data into each task. Before you start to track your actual information against your plan, you need to set a baseline. I will use the Project Libre file that we created in class to demonstrate the tracking procedure.  Setting a Baseline I will set mine to Baseline 1. You can have multiple Baselines for tracking purposes, whether they be for different sections of your project, or for different scenarios or plans. Once you have set the Baseline, you will be able to view the actual information against the plan. The plan shows up as a shaded area, currently underneath the plan. As you enter in actual start dates and progress information, the shaded area (your ...

Session 9: Project Libre Gantt Charts

Image
Project Libre Tasks With Project Libre, you start by defining the basic information about your project. Once you have provided the basic information, you can start to create your timeline by entering the tasks into the Gantt Chart. Predecessors In class we will work through The Big Move class example to create the timeline for the project. Class Activity 1 Using Project Libre, enter the tasks using the Gantt Chart View (Completed above as a class) Allocate/Estimate the duration for each task (Completed above as a class) Determine any predecessors for each task (Completed above as a class) Critical Path Analysis The Gantt Chart view in Project Libre will display the Critical Path in red. What does that mean? The Critical Path is the first area that you need to concentrate your time management skills. Any activity on the critical path that takes longer than the estimate will affect your end date. The blue activities have a bit of "wriggle room" (I know, not a technical project ...
