Project Management
In this portion of our senior project we were required to make a Gantt Chart to document & manage our time, build a resume, make business cards, obtain letters of recommendation, etc.
Business Cards
For our business cards we had to custom make them to look professional so we could one day hand them to an employer, consultant, and/or future college. This was a valuable requirement to set us up for success because not everyone takes a bunch of high school seniors seriously, but when they see us with business cards they will know we are the real deal.
Letters Of Recommen-dation
Part of the project management tasks was to obtain 3-4 letters of recommendation from various different fields. (teachers, parents, employers, employees, coaches, etc) These not only make us look better when asked by a consultant but it was also useful when applying to colleges, too already have letters of recommendation written for me.
Below are the links to the following letters of recommendation written by the respected person. These can also be found at the bottom of my "About Me" page.
Gantt Chart
We created a Gantt Chart to document how much time we spent on every single aspect of the project.
On the left hand side there are all the topics, activities, and mini assignments that we had/have to complete. Next to that is a table of numbers that correlate to the dates running along the top of the gantt chart. These numbers dictate how long the colored strip is based on how many days we spent on that portion of the project. The table includes our predicted start & finish dates along with the actual start & finish dates. This is to show if we are on track to completing and how well we did or didnt manage our time.
