Project Management

Planning apps/options
Alternatives
Gantt Chart
Cons
Is useful for overall work but isn't as efficient for the finer more detailed aspects of tasks. Would be difficult to plan out specific tasks with this.
-
Pros
Gives the overall summary of work and helps you with understanding the fundamentals of the overall project
-
Currently already using a Gantt Chart from Mrs. Bullock that has a general rundown of the year. It is proving useful because it helps me to plan everything I am doing.
Calendar Planner
Pros
Information is tangible, i have difficulty remembering things if not infront of me. Therefore having it set up somewhere I can see everything I will be more likely to do everything
-
Cons
-
I have a tendency to enjoy destroying/physically have a reminder/notification that I have finished a specific piece of work
It can have a negative impact towards the environment, with use of paper when it can be done digitally
-
-
I will be using a calendar planner because its useful like the Gantt chart but I can create finer more detailed elements of the work as well as having the larger overview.
Scrumboard
Pros
-
Has physical presence, (unless made online) therefore easier for me to interact with and use
-
Cons
-
If I physically make it, it will only be avaliable at the place I make it depending on the size. If i make it large there will be general difficulty with transporting
-
Apps
Trello
Pros
-
Similar to a Scrum board and can add due dates etc. Overall has a lot of possibilities for when it comes to planning and can be more efficient in helping me manage time.
Cons
I have used it before, and I personally don't enjoy using it, having to access the app to do the work and having to manually add settings when if I were to do it manually would be faster.
-
Notion
Cons
Can be confusing when starting to use, or overall finicky
I don't like using it, therefore I won't end up using it
-
-
Sprints
Pros
Agile, efficient way of planning that is well adapted to adjusting to mentor and end-user feedback.
-
-
-
Cons
-
-
Will never be finished, meaning that at some point I will have to stop working on it because of time constraits.
I will be using sprints because it is an easy to gain feedback from mentors and stakeholders and I am used to using it.
Importance of planning
This is an extensive project that has a lot of aspects incorporated into it. I need to plan so that I can stay on top of the workload and create the best possible work with the time I have.
