Week 2: Research and Presentation

Signature Assignment

We will be utilizing Microsoft Project to create our Work Breakdown Structures (WBS) in week 3 and will continue to use this software for a method to control the project schedule, costs, and resources. However, many other software tools are in the market to help with the management process of a project including the control of the schedule, resources, and costs. You are to find another project management tool other than Microsoft Project and research the tool. Then you will prepare a Power Point Presentation with your recorded voice that reflects your research and adequately compares and contrast the tool with Microsoft Project. You will conclude with your appraisal of the software along with your recommendation to keep Microsoft Project or use the researched tool. Provide solid reasons for your conclusion and include a resources slide or frame at the end. You will need to set the voice playback (sound) and the slide transitions to automatic in PowerPoint. You may wish to convert the presentation to a MP4 video. Either you will submit the PowerPoint presentation with automatic slide transitions and sound playback, or you will submit the converted video this week. Canvas will automatically assign you two other students' video or PowerPoint Presentation to complete a peer review in the next week. The presentation is worth 80 points and the Peer Reviews are worth 15 points.

Reminder : You should use at least two scholarly resources to validate your presentation and present all resources in a slide or frame near the end of your presentation. This listing should be in APA format.

This assignment is a signature assignment, as you will utilize a digitized and dynamic method of communicating your research results with an open mindedness towards adaptability towards change and evaluating such change with the expectation of receiving feedback from your peers (people). This assignment will present you into a role in investigating new innovative processes and specializing in how it compares and contrasts to the current known processes. It will help address the ability to investigate adaptive systems to respond to the dynamic needs of an organization for the management of strategic projects (process and data). Finally, you will utilize technology and systems to communicate from your location to the location of others that is necessary for a globalize business world (devices).
