Evaluation Of A Business Information System Project

Secondly, I want to mention our group climate. In my opinion, our group has a supportive climate. Each member is willing to help other members in the group to complete their tasks. Our group favors description compared to evaluation. Instead of criticizing others’ behaviors and ideas, we often tell our feelings about problems. All the group members always encourage each other to share their opinions and feelings with the group. Even though some opinions are too conflicting, the main purpose is trying to give all the members equal opportunities to talk about their ideas. Thus, the success of the group is the consequence from the equal contributions of all the members. Besides, in most of the discussions of our group, we are oriented toward problem solving; therefore, we look for the consensus of the ideas in order to solve the problems effectively and quickly. Because our group has many members who have senses of humor, we always maintain an interesting and comfortable atmosphere to gain assertiveness in the group. Sometimes, Ngoc and Phong share their experiences of how they solve their families’ problems. Through perceiving more deeply about each member’s own life, we have gradually gotten closer together; therefore, we are always honest and open to each other. Also, we do not criticize when a group member cannot finish his or her task as expected because there are always personal issues out of the class. In addition to

In an online class setting, it can be very challenging to work on a group project that requires the participation of every group member and completing the project on time. This group project was successful one each individual had because we used proper communication to assign tasks, roles, and deadline to complete the project.

Every participant should be clear about expectations and intentions of the group and about what is expected from her/him.

The learning experience with a group was effective in a way that the tasks were divided among four of us. The task was divided in a way that each one of us was responsible for the research of required information. Research was divided into statistic, case study, sign and symptoms, risk factors and prevention measures. All five of us picked one topic to research. My role in the team was to find the supporting information regarding symptoms. Nevertheless, we worked in a team to find all the required information needed to support our presentation.

This group project was a lot of organization. At this moment, we had a lot of exams and

Some of us took more leadership roles than other but everyone was able to contribute and get their ideas across. We decided to do this topic because we felt that it had the most info for us to reflect on. Our process was very successful in this project. First we read the document and took notes. Then after we read we reflected on what we read and then took that conversation into the situations. When we had conflicts we were able to make rational decisions and compromise. Even though all of our conflicts we not handled well are group worked very well and there's not much to be changed.

Throughout the project our group mate's were making a decision who will do each part. Every moment we worked on the project. All the members where connect through the media. Each member provided more information’s and gave details. The project was reviewed over and over again. There was time when the group had difficulties. The paper was organized and check from a group mate. Our peers were looking at the paper.

The group divides the project tasks and every week the assigned task deadline was not met, this situation was very stressful. However, after several weeks I realize the professor had outlined the task process that show who was committed to the project and who was following through. This alleviates some of the stress that forces me to understand that all the collaboration technique in the world will not work if all parties are not committed.

Information System project course (ISYS3027) has been running for several years in the School of Information Technologies. In this course, students are required to form a group of five or six to complete an Information System project either given by the course coordinator or proposed by students themselves. This course has successfully delivered lots of high quality products to internal or external clients. Yet a constant problem experienced by many students involved in the project course is the group communication. In the past, each group individually developed unique communication styles, for instance, some groups set up discussion board to exchange ideas and progress, while others used simple email message for the same purpose. The style usually evolved along the course of the project; with some groups eventually find the most suitable ones in the middle of the semester. It is possible for some group to experience the insufficient communication problem through out the whole course. Lack of communication always ended up with two group members performing the same task or some task being left unattended. To solve this problem, the

Being involved in a group project was a challenge for me, due to the fact that we had some communication problems between our group members in the beginning. First of all, we started with a brainstorming, analysing the opportunities of companies around Hendon Central. More than this, we agreed on the same firm and started our work. Within a teamwork, there are some challenges that occur such as remaining focused on a direction, splitting equally the work and choosing a good leader. Bearing all this in mind, I might say that we did our best during the presentation and we coped with the minor communication issues. From this experience, I realized that I am a good leader and I can manage efficiently a project.

Strengths for our team include the fact that our group consists of upper level, business majors who have studied various aspects of business theory and knowledge. This knowledge will be used to the best of the group’s ability to develop and present a well-rounded final project. One notable weakness for our group is that we are having to communicate over a distance rather than work together in a single setting. This provides some obstacles as e-mail communication is often tedious when it comes to working together in a group. However, opportunity wise, our group consists of different minded members who can provide various and diverse insights for our group project. As a group our biggest threat is mostly time and communication. Because this class ranges over a few short weeks it is imperative that our group is mindful of deadlines as well as maintaining clear communication between all members.

Having been selected for the project for the sole reasons of my educational background; software engineering, I was automatically made the technical leader of the group. My other colleagues made the rest of the team. The way this group was structured was in a manner that everyone had a specific job to do, for instance, I was given the task of directing the other group members on the software to use for coding, how to do it in the simplest form and to present all the final material to the project manager after I had reviewed it. The task sounded simple when spelt out, however, it was not the case when work started. We usually had to meet occasionally for the purpose of discussing the next mile-stone for the project. This happened every Monday in the conference room, during this time we would agree on the project’s direction and the way that we would execute it. The project manager would facilitate this and we

Our group consisted of x xxxxx, x xxxxx, x xxxx and myself. Our task, as team members, involved the application of the tools and techniques of multi-project/program management. As part of the process, we were to deal with the analysis and establishment of project management systems based on the structure of the project and organization. We were also expected to expend some effort to observe and analyze our own team’s group process and group dynamics, and within that scope address such areas as team member roles and responsibilities, delegation, decision making, leadership, conflict resolution, etc.

Each person had different strengths. They could therefore contribute their varying abilities in order to achieve efficient results. Managing the project development was achieved through good organisation. It is imperative to understand the advantages of each team member to delegate appropriate sections. There was a huge challenge in the lack of time since we only had two weeks to prepare the presentation and we

For any company involved in the development of IT system applications or any other software, having a team of people who knows what they are doing, will determine if the application will be useful or a total failure. Since money cannot be wasted and it is sometimes shorted by the client, having the experience and the right leaders to keep this project organized and on schedule, will help the development team members finish this project on time and on budget. However, in order to stay on track of the requirements set by the client, communicating with the client on a regular basis either by phone or by virtual meetings, the results of the project will most likely be a success.
