Step-by-Step Beginners Guide to Project Management - 4 views

  •  
    I liked this article with it's straightforward language and steps that make sense. Not only are the concrete requirements such as budget and tools discussed, but the often overlooked teamwork and leader roles are covered. Also on this site are related articles from "An Introduction to Project Management", "The Role of the Project Manager" and many others.
  •  
    that was a great article. I link the simplification of project management ins beining defined through the who, what, when, where and how. Also they discuss getting participants to commit, that is important or they will not do their part in the project. thanks for sharing.
  •  
    I like the reminder of several basic but easily forgotten tips. Writing down the objective is key for me. I can become a little too creative at times and end up distracted from the main goal. I like to keep it in sight throughout the entire process. Thanks for a great article!

Using Todoist for Task Management - 1 views

  •  
    A review of one of the latest PM tools available, Todoist. Recommended by the author as an effective tool for managing tasks and projects. May not necessarily be great for teams though, it seems to be more of a personal task manager.

4 tech tips for eLearning Managers - 0 views

  •  
    A useful article providing some tips on using technology to assist eLearning project management.
  •  
    I found this to be an interesting article because it's from Kineo. In my first semester in this ILT program, my first group and I presented on Kineo eXe, an eLearning authoring tool. The article talks about the use of MS Project, a timesheet system, a bug database, and a collaborative tool. All of these are needed to manage an eLearning project. There are tools that offer more than one of these options, such as SharePoint as a collaboration tool and bug database, but with a cost. The article lists other options as well and I'd like to investigate the tools listed there more to see if there are free options.

    Zoho offers a suite of online web applications geared towards increasing your productivity and offering easy collaboration. Zoho's online office tools include a word processor, spreadsheet application, presentation tool, hosted wiki, notebook, CRM, Database software, etc. I have used it for some of the database applications.

Here is an interesting story that I found on their site: http://www.time.com/time/business/article/0,8599,1855616,00.html.

ADDIE Instructional Design Phase | by Intulogy - 0 views

  •  
    This is a great resource that ties instructional design the the Agile project management methodology. I found the pages on "Selecting the Course Format" (http://www.intulogy.com/addie/course-format.html) and "The Course Development Process" (http://www.intulogy.com/addie/develop-materials.html) very interesting. There's a lot of great information here, but not really one place to see all of what is contained herein--like a table of contents. So, set some time aside and enjoy perusing!

    There is a lot of good information here. Some of it is old. In some cases, that may matter and in other cases, it may not. I downloaded a couple of things. I hope he does some updates.

OpenProj - Project Management - 0 views

  •  
    Open Source desktop project management software. This is an awesome tool for those of us without access to the likes of MS Project.
  •  
    Open Source desktop project management and can be used as an alternative to Microsoft Project. PM's can create GANT charts, and also many other templates.
  •  
    It looks great, but I'm always suspicious about what type of Trojan I might download with these programs. Has anyone used it successfully?

15 Useful Project Management Tools - 0 views

  •  
    There is a huge variety of project management applications out there. Most are general purpose apps, not aimed at any one industry. But there are a growing number of project management apps aimed specifically at one industry or another. Applications geared toward creative types are becoming more readily available, and some of the offerings are really quite good.

Easy Chain (Critical Chain Project Management-CCPM) - 1 views

  •  
    Critical Chain Project Management (CCPM) is an alternate method of planning and managing projects with an emphasis on the resources required to execute project tasks rather than upon what the traditional WBS encapsulates.
  •  
    This was interesting! I liked all of the statistics about why projects fail. Being new to all this, it gives me further insight on structuring projects.
  •  
    Wow, it is hard to believe how many different methodologies there are out there! This one seems really different. I can see how it would be suited for some types of projects, like those with a tangible end product, but I wonder how well it would work with eLearning?
