Assignment3
Reflect on the assigned readings for the week. Respond to the following prompts: What do I feel are the most important aspects of my learning in the chapters this week? and What about this learning was really worthy of my time and understanding? Then explain how important it is in society or business.
Also, provide a graduate-level response to each of the following questions:
Develop a list of criteria for a project management software package to be used in a project management course.
You are in charge of the selection and implementation of a new project management software package in your organization. Develop a project plan and explain the details.
Respond to the post of at least two peers, using 100 words minimum each.
[Your initial post should be based upon the assigned reading for the week, so the textbook should be a source listed in your reference section and cited within the body of the text. Other sources are not required but feel free to use them if they aid in your discussion].
[Your initial post should be at least 450+ words and in APA format (including Times New Roman with font size 12 and double spaced). Post the actual body of your paper in the discussion thread then attach a Word version of the paper for APA review]
[Your initial posting should be completed by Thursday at 11:59 p.m. EST. All peer replies must be completed by Sunday at 11:59 p.m. EST]
[Your post must be substantive and demonstrate insight gained from the course material. A peer response such as I agree with her, or I liked what he said about that is not considered substantive and will not be counted for course credit. A blank post just to review other submissions will not be tolerated]
