Project

This document outlines a project planning assignment with two tasks. Task 1 involves creating a Gantt chart and network diagram based on a table of project activities. Task 2 is a cost-benefit analysis and earned value management analysis. For the cost-benefit analysis, students are to analyze metrics like net present value, return on investment, and payback period. For earned value management, students will estimate costs and duration for their own proposed project, then perform calculations to analyze schedule and cost performance. The assignment aims to develop students' skills in project planning, scheduling, cost-benefit analysis, and performance measurement.
