Unit 3 - Discussion Board
Assignment Details
Assignment Description
Primary Discussion Response is due by Wednesday (11:59:59pm Central), Peer Responses are due by Sunday (11:59:59pm Central).
Primary Task Response: Within the Discussion Board area, write 350–600 words that respond to the following questions with your thoughts, ideas, and comments. This will be the foundation for future discussions with your classmates. Be substantive and clear, and use examples to reinforce your ideas.
The discussion assignment for this week will be to determine what may be the best risk response for some given situations.
The following Discussion Board research will assist you in determining the correct responses. Research at least 2 sources (which may include your textbook) to support your
response.
The vendor that you hired is not performing. Identify the risk response that is the most appropriate for this risk (avoid, transfer, mitigate, or accept), and write a full
description of the contingency plan to go along with the selected response.
The equipment that you ordered for this project is now a month late. Identify the risk response that is the most appropriate for this risk (avoid, transfer, mitigate, or
accept), and write a full description of the contingency plan to go along with the selected response.
The location where the project is being developed has hurricanes that come through the area a few times a year. Identify the risk response that is the most appropriate
for this risk (avoid, transfer, mitigate, or accept), and write a full description of the contingency plan to go along with the selected response.
The task effort that was initially estimated is actually going to take three times as long because there is a learning curve involved. Identify the risk response that is the
most appropriate for this risk (avoid, transfer, mitigate, or accept), and write a full description of the contingency plan to go along with the selected response.
Write 2 more paragraphs that are an introduction and conclusion to this topic. Be sure to include your references, and format your submission in APA format.
Responses to Other Students: Respond to at least 2 of your fellow classmates with a reply of 100–200 words about their Primary Task Response regarding items you found to be compelling and enlightening. To help you with your discussion, please consider the following questions:
What did you learn from your classmate's posting?
What additional questions do you have after reading the posting?
What clarification do you need regarding the posting?
What differences or similarities do you see between your posting and other classmates' postings?
