Stimulus resources

• Examples of project scope statements in Defining the Scope in the prescribed textbook (Web | PDF), Chapter 9 (page 61 in the PDF version).

Purpose

• You need to select a project that you can create a plan for during this micro course.
• Selecting a suitable project is critical to maximising your learning.
• It is also very important if you intend to submit an assessment for formal credit.
• Think about balance. If the project is too large or complex, it may not work within the time frame you have available; if the project is too small or simple, you may not learn enough from it.
