Assignment: Planning Your Week
You could consider each week of a course as a small project. It requires you to study some learning resources, participate in a discussion, and possibly complete a paper or a test.
1. Create a work breakdown structure (WBS) that represents your projects for this week.
• Document the tasks you were asked to perform in this week of the course (you can use the list above as a starting point). Decompose each main task into subtasks that can be completed in two hours or less.
• Do the same for at least two other projects you planned for this week. They could be things like grocery shopping, laundry, or another course. Do not include events with scheduled times, like work or medical appointments.
1. Using Microsoft Project or an equivalent, represent this WBS as a Gantt chart. Be sure to display all of the tasks and subtasks and the estimated duration of each one. Enter task dependencies that result in a feasible schedule.
Note: Do not use Excel or other software that cannot represent task dependencies.
