Weekly Progress Reports

Starting in week four of the semester, each team will create a weekly progress report (template below) which documents the progress your team has made in the past week. A post was created on this course site for each week where you will add a comment and insert a link to your progress report (one report per team). Your report should be saved on your e-portfolio.
Teams will be penalized on their final project grade if any reports are missing and/or late.

Project Website

You will be creating a website as part of your project with two objectives in mind. First the website must introduce and describe your project to any interested party. Second, the website must organizes and make your project and product documentation easily accessible. The website must be produced to a high professional standard.

Create your standalone website on the MIS Community platform :

  • The website must be thoughtfully designed and look professional
  • We have an MIS server, project.mis.temple.edu dedicated to selected MIS courses. Your website must be on this server. Create your project site and select the theme you want.
  • Include a short description of the project.
  • Arrange the project documents and their different versions in an easy-to-understand and highly accessible structure on the site.
  • Add any relevant screenshots, prototype design, links to external service, photos, etc. related to your project to the site.
  • Include names and pictures of team members and links to their personal e-portfolio.

Start the website early and then improve and add to it as you work with your project.

Team Project Grading

The final deliverable will be a set of artifacts posted on a website that you will be creating. You and your partner(s) will need to determine the documents which will be included on your site as well as the final format for all of these documents.

Grades will be assigned as follows:

100% – The assignment consistently exceeds expectations. It demonstrates originality of thought and creativity throughout. Beyond completing all of the required elements, new concepts and ideas are detailed that transcend general discussions along similar topic areas. There are few mechanical, grammatical or organizational issues that detract from the presented ideas.

85% – The assignment consistently meets and in some cases, exceeds expectations. It demonstrates mastery of the subject matter and some level of originality of thought and creativity. There are few mechanical, grammatical or organizational issues that detract from the presented ideas.

75% – The assignment consistently meets expectations. It contains all the information prescribed for the assignment and demonstrates a command of the subject matter. There is sufficient detail to cover the subject completely but not too much as to be distracting. There may be some procedural issues, such as grammar or organizational challenges, but these do not significantly detract from the intended assignment goals.

65% – The assignment fails to consistently meet expectations. That is, the assignment is complete but contains problems that detract from the intended goals. These issues may be relating to content detail, be grammatical, or be a general lack of clarity. Other problems might include not fully following assignment directions.

55% – The assignment constantly fails to meet expectations. It is incomplete or in some other way consistently fails to demonstrate a firm grasp of the assigned material.
