Assignment title: Management


Assignment-1 (Project Requirements and Scope) Value: 10% Length: 2 pages Submission method options Alternative submission method Task You are to prepare the project scope and initial requirements and assumptions for a new Interface Design project. This project may be either: • The online gift shop case study or • A project that you are doing as part of your employment, or are proposing or planning to do. You are to prepare a Project Brief for this project. The project brief will set the basis for the rest of your assignment work in ITC504. You should approach this project as a "blue sky" project. That is, you are going to design and develop an interface that is different to those that you have previously worked on. This means that you're planning will necessarily be somewhat more diffident as you will be doing research during the planning and design process to achieve your design aims. Your project brief should include the following sections: • Overview • Vision • Outcomes • Scope • Objectives, Outputs and Targets • Success Criteria • Key assumptions The project brief should concentrate on the Overview, Vision, Outcomes, Scope and Key Assumptions at this stage. These sections define your vision for the project and should be quite well developed. The Objectives and Success Criteria may not be well known at this stage, but some effort should be made to determine what they are. These will be added to later in the project. Rationale The rationale for this assignment is to test students ability to capture, develop and understand user requirements for an interface design project. The assignment will also test the ability of students to understand the constraints that are inherently contained in requirements.
