terfall Respond to the following in a minimum of
175 words   The waterfall project management
model is often used for non-IT projects, while
the Agile project management model is often used
for IT projects.   Why is this the case? What
differences between IT and non-IT projects make
each more appropriate for a different project
management model? Are there exceptions? What
drawbacks might occur from using the waterfall
model for an IT project and the Agile approach
for a non-IT project?

elf-Or-Build-In-House Respond to the following
in a minimum of 175 words   IT projects can be
based on existing, off-the-shelf software that is
customized to meet the needs of the project
deliverables. Or, IT projects can be built from
the ground up, in-house. Imagine you and your
colleagues are consultants who have been asked to
weigh in on the custom vs. off-the-shelf question
at the beginning of an IT project at a Fortune
500 company.   What are the benefits of
choosing and customizing off-the-shelf software
to meet your projects needs vs. building the
entire project in-house.

Creep http//www.snaptutorial.com/CMGT-410/produc
t-39753-CMGT-410-Week-4-Discussion-Scope-Creep
Scope Creep     Scope creep refers to the tiny,
incremental change or addition of requirements to
an already-defined project so that, for example,
a project that began by trying to produce a
single ham sandwich ended up trying to produce a
three-course meal for 20 people.   For this
discussion, describe a time when scope creep
happened on a project in which you were involved.
The project you describe may be from work (such
as being affected by an IT upgrade project),
school (such as participating in a team
assignment), or personal life (such as planning a
wedding). .

ests Wk 5 Discussion - Feature Requests  
  All projects are perfect at the beginningbut
few are perfect when they end. Sometimes, project
managers gather descriptions of features that
weren't included in the initial release of a
product and slate them for inclusion into a "2.0"
version of the deliverables. Imagine you have
been asked to submit a feature request for the
VitalSource application you use to read your
textbook for this course.     What feature
would you request?
