Grading Guide

Content and Organization 70 Percent Percent Earned: Percent Possible: Comments:
This assignment is split into two parts:

1)  A project schedule derived from the WBS developed in week 4.

2) A 300 word paper that outlines how the team will measure project progress and performance using Earned Value.

   
The team uses the work breakdown structure (WBS) from week 4 to create a project schedule for the Garage project and adds duration, start and finish dates, predecessors, and milestones. The tasks listed are organized into the phases of a project lifecycle, and are decomposed to suit the work at hand (at least 30 to 35 individual tasks). 35.00% 35.00%
The measurement plan describes the principles of Earned Value measurement using terms a non-project professional, like the project sponsor, can understand. 15.00% 15.00%
