ABOUT THE WEEK 5

During this weeks session we've had a look on our project from the planning and managing perspective. This is a very crucial step for us to take as there is no time to spare, every meeting and tutorial needs to be planned carefully in advance. This is essential because the group is then aware of the important dates and milestones but it also provides an overview of all the tasks that need to be completed.

We have learnt how the Planning Process works and what are the levels we should go through if we want to create a successful plan for our project.

Especially helpful I consider creating a Gantt Chart. It is a collection of tasks we need to complete as a group but individually too. It represent kind of calendar of tasks that helps to keep the evidence like dates, names and exact part of the project| groupwork that are done.

Next thing I have also learnt is that is always vital to have the Risk Assessment done so in case of the risk identification it is much easier to  define it but also to consider it, solve it and try to avoid it in the future.

We've covered the topic about the stakeholders too, which gave the overview of their role in the project and advised the best tools of the communication with them.
