discussion question

Question 1

Using Microsoft Project or other similar software create a GANTT chart for a hypothetical project that involves at least 7 tasks, and two milestones.  In your posting, include enough support material to describe the project, each of the tasks, and to identify the critical path.  Be sure to include linkages between tasks other than finish-to-start.  (If you absolutely cannot get MS Project to work, you can use another tool to produce your Gantt chart, but I would prefer to see it in MS Project.)  Create your own Main Topic using your name.  Provide supporting documentation in the text box, and a copy of your MS Project or other type of file printed as a pdf so all can read. Provide feedback to the charts of your classmates.

Microsoft Project can be accessed through the Virtual Lab: Welcome to your Virtual Lab!

The virtual lab is your online desktop that provides you the software needed to complete the assignments for this course.  The instructions you need to access your virtual lab and how to properly store and, if needed, upload your work, are located in the Content section under Virtual Lab Access in the pdf document titled Student Workspace Instructions For UMGC.  A Student Workspace allows you to access the application without having to install it on your personal computer. Your Student Workspace can be accessed through the web and requires no software installation on your personal computer. Please read the document to know how to use the workspace.

The URL for accessing the workspace is: https://vdi.umuc.edu/Citrix/UMGCWeb/

If you prefer to have your own copy of the MS Project software installed on your computer, you may ask your instructor to make arrangements for you to have access to the Microsoft Imagine resource to download your copy from Microsoft free of charge.
