Further Background
Refer to background information provided in Assessments 1 and 2 regarding MyHousing project.
Complete the Following
Please refer to the marking guide when preparing your response to see what criteria and standards will be used to assess your work and your progress.
Agile Methodologies
Compare and contrast Unified Process (UP) and Scrum. Then recommend either Unified Process or Scrum you will use for the proposed system and briefly describe why.
Plan and Monitor Project
Planning and monitoring project activities are important part of system development. Review all possible system functions that you identifed in assignment 1 and 2, and complete the following tasks. You are not required to explain these tasks, just draw a table for each task with some relevant paramters. Please note, as this is not a complete project, if information is not given you should assume reasonably.
- Estimate the development cost and the time required to complete MyHousing project.
- Develop a work breakdown structure (WBS) for the MyHousing project’s first iteration.
- Prepare a detailed work schedule for the first iteration.
RATIONALE
back to top
This assessment task will assess the following learning outcome/s:
- be able to evaluate development requirements and prepare a feasibility proposal based on multi-disciplinary (financial, human resource, technological) analyses.
- be able to formulate and justify system requirement models based on evaluation of given situations.
- be able to assemble the components of a requirements model using the tools and techniques of object oriented or structured systems modelling.

| CRITERIA | STANDARDS | ||||
| High Distinction | Distinction | Credit | Pass | Fail | |
| Compare and contrast Unified Process (UP) and Scrum. Then recommend either Unified Process or Scrum you will use for the proposed system and briefly describe why. 6 marks |
Response clearly states the differences between Unified Process and Scrum methodologies with strong justification about which methodology is suitable for the proposed system. (5.10-6.00) | Response clearly states the differences between Unified Process and Scrum methodologies with some justification about which methodology is suitable for the proposed system. (4.50-5.09) | Response lists the major differences between Unified Process and Scrum methodologies with little justification about which methodology is suitable for the proposed system. (3.90-4.49) | Response lists some differences between Unified Process and Scrum methodologies with limited justification about which methodology is suitable for the proposed system. (3.00-3.89) | Response just describes both methodologies no comparison and no justification about which methodology is suitable for the proposed system. (0.00-2.99) |
| Estimate the development cost and the time required to complete MyHousing project. Develop a work breakdown structure (WBS) for the MyHousing project’s first iteration. Prepare a detailed work schedule for the first iteration. 6 marks | Table provides accurate estimation for development cost and the time required to complete the project. Table provides accurate work breakdown structure (WBS) using all project activities. Table provides accurate work schedule using all possible use cases. (5.10-6.00) | Table provides mostly accurate estimation for development cost and the time required to complete the project. Table provides mostly accurate work breakdown structure (WBS) using all project activities. Table provides mostly accurate work schedule using all possible use cases. (4.50-5.09) | Table provides some estimation for development cost and the time required to complete the project. Table provides some work breakdown structure (WBS) using all project activities. Table provides some work schedule using all possible use cases. (3.90-4.49) | Table provides some estimation for development cost and the time required to complete the project. Minor errors.
Table provides some work breakdown structure (WBS) using all project activities. Minor errors. Table provides some work schedule using all possible use cases. Minor errors. (3.00-3.89) |
Table used to estimation for development cost and the time required to complete the project is wrong.
Table used to develop work breakdown structure (WBS) is wrong. Table used to estimate work schedule is wrong. (0.00-2.99) |
| Presentation and clarity (accuracy, spelling, grammar, punctuation, figures)
2 Marks |
Fluent writing style appropriate to the assignment with accurate grammar and spelling, and high-quality figures drawn using some tools and figures have some captions. (1.70-2.00) | Mostly fluent writing style appropriate to assignment with accurate grammar and spelling, and good-quality figures drawn using some tools and figures have some captions. (1.50-1.69) | Mostly fluent writing style appropriate to the assignment with mostly accurate grammar and spelling. Minor omissions only. Some-quality figures drawn using some tools and figures have some captions. (1.30-1.49) | Writing style not always fluent or well organised and grammar and spelling contain errors. Poor-quality figures drawn using some tools and figures have some captions. (1.00-1.29) | Writing style not fluent or well-organised, and many grammatical and spelling mistakes. Very bad quality figures, copied from others work, no captions. (0.00-0.99) |
| Referencing and Citation
1 Marks |
Referencing is mainly accurate and according to the APA standard. All references are cited in the text. (0.85-1.00) | Referencing is mainly accurate and according to the APA standard. Most of the references are cited in the text. (0.75-0.84) | Some attempt at referencing and according to the APA standard. Few references are cited in the text. (0.65-0.74) | Attempt at referencing but not exactly according to APA standard and only few references are cited in the text. (0.50-0.64) | Referencing is absent/ unsystematic. (0.00-0.49) |
PRESENTATION

Your answer should be approx. 4 pages, Times New Roman Size 12 (title page and references are not part of page count). You should use your own words and avoid lengthy quotations.
REQUIREMENTS

If any references are required, ensure to use APA referencing to acknowledge the sources that you have used in preparing your assessment. Please refer to the CSU referencing guide http://student.csu.edu.au/study/referencing-at-csu. In addition a very useful tool for you to use that demonstrates how to correctly use in text referencing and the correct way to cite the reference in your reference list can be found at https://apps.csu.edu.au/reftool/apa-6
