website development project plan with a template

Project Description

The Human-Computer Interaction Lab (HCIL) allows the iSchool to showcase its proficiency in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) research and provide information about the University of Maryland’s range of degrees in HCI. Our project will fulfill the client’s needs by applying HCI design principles to best serve their audience while utilizing cost-effective means. This website must display current content created by the iSchool as well as degree descriptions in an effective, easily navigable way. To achieve optimal returns from the HCIL website, the project will apply HCI and User-Centered Design principles as the main development framework. These principles will steer the project towards developing a website that guarantees maximum customization and high performance.

The website been analyzed:

Assignment:

You will be outlining and developing a project plan that will describe the major milestones and the subtasks, and deadlines. Successful project plans need to map to your requirements document and the tasks that you will need to complete to deliver a satisfactory project (whether it’s a series of reports, a website, a data management plan, or user interface guidelines).

Project plans typically include the phases (milestones) of a project, activities in each phase, task end and start dates, interdependencies between tasks, and the specific individual assigned.

For this assignment, please upload your project plan, which should include the Abstract, Scope, Schedule including resources, Communications Plan, and Deliverables. This document should be professional, as if you were presenting it to an official client who would pay for your services. It should also be extremely detailed as you will use it throughout the semester in project check-in meetings.

CAPSTONE: Website Design for Human Computer Interaction Lab

1. Abstract

The Human-Computer Interaction (HCIL) lab at the iSchool needs a redesigned website. This design will hopefully improve the interaction of the website between alumni, current and future members, and anyone else who has an interest in joining the HCIL. This document will explain the design process and what took place while making the new website.

2. Scope

The project itself exists of taking selected parts of the older website and integrating them into the new website, adding new elements, and taking out old elements that Beth Domingo has deemed unnecessary.

3. Schedule

(Include a very brief Introduction Statement)

This schedule is meant to show markers, milestones, and tasks that are meant to be accomplished by a certain date. If we find it necessary to go to a previous task to make edits, the schedule will indeed be adjusted.In addition to adjustments, this schedule will also keep the team on track

4. Communication Plan

(Include a very brief Introduction Statement)

We plan on making Skype calls weekly on Wednesday nights. This time and day seems to be the best for each team member, including Beth Domingo. Progress reports will be made and concerns or suggestions made by Beth Domingo will be addressed.
