How can a Gantt Chart be helpful in project planning?
The Ghant Chart outline what activities is schedule to be completed and how and when it should be finish also the length time it should take as well as which activities are at risk.
Describe how a WBS and a schedule work together.
The WBS represent the breakdown of work and the list of the work schedule contain the same items in the WBS such as, sequence activity, how to estimate duration of the activity, and the project schedule of compression that is applied making an outline of the schedule

As student nurses, I have many goals that would like to achieve upon completion of 150 hours of my capstone course. My plan is to use this opportunity to demonstrate competency skills, and knowledge gained through previous quarters. I have listed seven learning goals that I wanted to achieve during the capstone experience. On my first day of capstone, I have gone over each one with my preceptor and requested from her to provide me with feedbacks, so I can use them as stepping tool to work upon. These goals ranged from critical thinking decision making, culture, growth & development, legal and ethical to clinical competence safety/holistic care, evidence-based practice, and professionalism lifelong learning.
The vendors will outline how the work will be accomplished, who will perform the work, and vendors experience in providing the service. Additionally, the vendors will be required to submit work breakdown structures (WBSs) as the hierarchy structure below and work schedules to show their understanding of the work to be performed and their ability to meet the project schedule. There are constraints to be included in the RFP and communicated to all vendors in order to determine their ability to operate within these constraints. The project schedule is not flexible and the contractor must complete the service within the established project schedule of 1 year. The contractor must support the approved project scope statement.
The situation I have identified is that Conestoga College Doon Campus does not offer enough healthy, yet still affordable, food options for students and faculty. This is a rhetorical situation because the situation can be changed or modified. The exigence in this situation is that many students are becoming more and more health conscious, but do not have the healthy food options that are still affordable. My audience is Jennifer Bruder, the food services director for Chartwells at Conestoga, as she is the one who could make the decision about offering more healthy food options. This is a rhetorical audience as she is the person who could make the end decision about offering more healthy options, because they are the organization

This process is aimed at ensuring the project being pursued has a potential of delivering by adhering to the allocated time, sticking to the budget and very important, meeting customers specifications (Mott McDonald, 2002). It involves assessing the projects at critical stages (also referred to as gates) in its lifecycle and thus assuring it can advance to the next stage successfully. This function is performed by an independent experienced team, after which they assure the Senior Responsible Owners that the project can progress successfully (National Academies US & National Research US, 2004). There are six critical stages (gateways) in the lifecycle of a project that the independent gateway review team will evaluate and thus provide th...
For this assignment I will be comparing and contrasting the different types of organizational structures and cultures, evaluating how they influence employee performance and the impact they have on the success of the Organization. I will be looking at the culture and core values of Capco and the NHS and comparing how they operate differently to achieve their set goals. From this I will conclude what I feel the strengths and weaknesses of each of the strategies are.
Kent Beck, the project leader will find using the WBS to make complex projects more manageable as it is designed to help break down projects into manageable chunks that can be effectively estimated and supervised. By creating a WBS include several benefits. For example it can help assist with accurate project company, helps with assigning responsibilities, shows the control points, project milestones, and allows for more accurate estimation of the triple constraint (cost, risk, and time) therefore helping to explain the project scope to stakeholders.
1. Competitive Advantage – Through my experiences in the Capstone Simulation I learned a great deal about running a business. First of all, recognizing your company’s competitive advantage and reinforcing it in your business plan and operations is essential for sustained success. By investing heavily in TQM, HR, and automation in the low and traditional segments, Digby was more efficient than our competitors. Thanks to our heavy investments in TQM our company’s R&D cycle times were among the industry’s best. Not only were we able to meet customer preferences in a timely manner, allowing us to secure market share, our variable costs were greatly diminished with these investments. Costs were even further diminished with
The WBS is a key decider of a project completion and success. As we’ve learned in class the WBS defines the project’s scope and any changes in the WBS will affect the scope of the project and vis-versa. If we weren’t provided with the detailed WBS of the project at the start, I wouldn’t know exactly how to allocate resources for each period. To think that a PM is responsible to develop a workable project WBS , using techniques like Top-Down and Bottom-Up, is very mind bottling and impressive. I’ve also learned of the importance of budget allocation. As stated earlier, I had a little bit of budgeting issues throughout the simulation. Even though I was over budget, like everybody in the class, I wasn’t too far off.

Analyzing Research Studies My Capstone Proposal Project will be about sleep disturbances associated with cardiac surgery patients. I will be using the qualitative research method for my problem solving approach. My research approach is supported and established in data, otherwise known as the grounded theory (Keele, 2011, p. 47).
All effective educators need to find ways to motivate their students. The kids that fill our classrooms have different strengths and weaknesses. It is critical that teachers recognize the strengths and weaknesses of their students so they can use the right classroom management strategies to motivate their kids. In this particular case, the student named Jodie is inattentive and uninterested and neither the teacher intern or classroom teacher have a clue how to handle this situation. Ms. Marcia Thomas, who is the young intern feels that Jodie is just a problem child that lacks motivation and there is nothing she can do for this particular student. Ms. Thomas and the lead teacher Ms. Egan both lack the needed classroom management strategies that are necessary to motivate and engage students in a positive learning environment.
