For Module 5, your assignment is to choose a suitable methodology for the hypothetical information system project you came up with in Module 1. Please write a 3-4 page paper discussing why and how you selected a given methodology from those learned in the course to design your project

What about your project led you to choose this methodology?
What other development methodologies did you consider?
What methodologies were your major candidates, and why?
What methodologies did you quickly eliminate, and why?
Why have you chosen the final methodology that you did from among the major candidates? How did you make such a choice?

The degree to which you have carried out the assignment completely, or clarified why you could not and investigated alternatives
Your ability to describe your project clearly and develop your recommendations systematically
