For this assignment, choose one of the first three scenarios from the end of Chapter 1 (on pages 

17-18): “Wild Wood Apartments,” “Vince’s Vinyl,” or “Grandfield College.” You will work on the 

scenario you choose throughout the course. Do NOT choose the scenario titles “Westlake Research

work.

5. When you have completed all of the deliverables, you should compress the files together into 

a single .zip file for upload. Contact your instructor if you have any questions.

6. You will begin submitting theses items in Unit II.
