Project Planning And Analysis
With Problem 3 we decided to take a more in depth look at project planning.
Not only were we interested in what it would take to obtain a check plus
in this area, but also how an improved reflection on how we planned our
project would help us on the next problem area. We decided to go far and
beyond the gantt chart, including a look at the time we spent on the project
as we progressed through it. Of course we couldn't progress as efficiently
in our problem solving without a gantt chart, which is included in a separate
link. We recorded the time we spent on the project as accurately as possible,
and compared this to the estimated time we spent on the second project.
The results are shown in the visual procrastination section.
Gantt Chart
Throughout our work on the problem we predicted our work with a gant chart.
We found that forming a chart of tasks at the beginning of the problem
greatly increased our productivity. We had the problem laid out before
us, and knew every task that we had to do and an estimated date to be
started and finished. This way we stayed on task and didn't run the risk
of saving everything to do until the due date. We have found that having
a gant chart has become increasingly useful as we progress to more complicated
problems. For example in our first problem we didn't even bother looking
at the chart, and in our most recent problem we used it efficiently.

Visual Procrastination
From the beginning of Problem 3, we wrote down an accurate estimate of the time we spent on group and individual work. We then gave an estimate of the time we spent on Problem 2 (SPC and IST combined) and compared this graphically to the most recent project. As you will see from the graphs, we seemed to manage our time in Problem 3 a little more efficiently and productively than in Problem 2. Although we do still procrastinate a good deal, we don't think that this is avoidable considering the increasing amount of information that we are offered as we get closer and closer to the problem deadline.
