P3- Comparing three Project Methodologies  to complete the IT Project

Project Overview: The goal of this project is to develop a web-based School Event Management System designed to facilitate the organization, management, and participation in school events. The system will provide essential features such as event creation, participant registration, notifications, and a calendar view for upcoming events. By implementing this system, we aim to enhance communication within the school community and streamline event management processes

Create wireframes and mockups for the user interface to visualize the layout and navigation of the application. Ensure that the design is intuitive and user-friendly, incorporating feedback from stakeholders.

Clearly outline the project's goals, such as improving event visibility, increasing student engagement, and simplifying the registration process. This phase will also involve setting a timeline 

Utilize surveys, focus groups, and interviews with students, teachers, and administrative staff to collect feedback on desired features. Document technical requirements, user roles, and access permissions to guide development

o Technology Stack: Choose an appropriate technology stack, such as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript for the front end, with Node.js or Python (Flask/Django) for the back end. Select a database management system (e.g., MySQL or MongoDB) based on project needs.

Cut Through 

o Develop prototypes of the application using tools like Figma or Adobe XD. These prototypes will illustrate the user interface and navigation flow.

o Gather initial requirements through brainstorming sessions and surveys with students and teachers. Identify key features such as feedback submission forms, analytics dashboards, and notification systems.

o Create user stories to define what students and staff need from the application, ensuring a user-centered design.

o Once the application is developed, conduct a thorough testing phase, including unit tests and user acceptance testing (UAT). Ensure that all features work as intended and that users are satisfied with the experience.

o Launch the application in a controlled environment, allowing a select group of users to start submitting feedback. Monitor performance and gather additional insights for further improvements.

o Begin development using an agile approach, breaking the project into smaller components that can be completed in short time frames (sprints).

o Focus on building the core functionalities first, such as the feedback form and basic reporting features. Utilize frameworks like React or Angular for a responsive front end and Node.js for the back end.

Control a project 

o Define the project’s purpose: To create a user-friendly system for managing library operations.

o Develop a Project Initiation Document (PID) outlining objectives, scope, and stakeholders. Identify risks, constraints, and resources needed for successful execution.

o The Project Board, comprising key stakeholders, will provide guidance and make decisions on project direction. Regular meetings will ensure alignment with objectives and address any issues.

o The project will be divided into stages, such as Requirements Gathering, Design, Development, Testing, and Deployment. Each stage will be monitored to ensure it stays within budget and timeline.
