  Contents

  This course will be implemented as a project, with project management methods. Student will sign a project contract with Haaga-Helia at the start of the course. Students will be assigned to certain teams based on prior knowledge, available projects, required and mastered language (Finnish and/or English) and needs of each project.
  
  Students will implement and demonstrate ready-to-use solutions to the customer.

  Assessment criteria

  Assessment criteria - grade 5

  Accepted grades 1-5
  
  Assessment will be based on student’s skills and efforts in the above-mentioned course contents. The emphasis of the grade will be the following:
  - Researching new technology and tutoring others 15%
  o Student will take responsibility of studying one or more technologies needed in the project and teaching it/them to the others e.g. in a workshop.
  - Project management and project final essay 35 %
  o Student has many role- or competence-based tasks and responsibilities in the project. Students devise and maintain appropriate project management and progress monitoring documentation and take care of project trackability and traceability both from internal and external controls’ points-of-view. Student reflects his/her as well as the team’s actions in the final essay.
  - Appropriate documentation of the results and the technical solution that fulfills customer’s needs 50 %
  o Often most of the costs of an information system come from maintenance and changes. Also, the future developers of the system are different from the original developers. Thus, we put a big emphasis on the quality of the documentation, source etc. code, and automated testing and continuous integration – the professional development pipeline.
  o Quality of the documentation does not mean lengthy or all-covering documentation, but that needed and most valuable information is available and only that. Also, high-quality code is often self-explanatory.
  
  Examples of results and tasks that will be evaluated per project team
  - Software requirements: defined, audited, and accepted by the customer
  - Technical requirements: defined, well-argued, and accepted by the customer
  - Source etc. code: in common version control system
  - Testing: testing planned, plan accepted by the customer, corresponding tests run, and test report published
  - Project and work management: appropriate project management (external control) and agreed practice (internal control) documentation, following the agreed timelines, and sound communication.
  
  The Commissioner gives evaluation of each of these parts or results
  
  Examples of results and tasks that will be evaluated per each student
  - Integrity and trustworthiness. Taking responsibility for oneself and of the team.
  - Research and tutoring: The technology that was the responsibility of the student has been taken into use in the team appropriately. Technology was taught to others based on the need. Student has been able to reflect his/her own responsibility area.
  - Development tasks: The student’s completion of the responsibilities in planned timeframe (implementation days, sprint, …) and the quality awareness and assurance (e.g. definition of done).

  Learning objectives

  Students get an understanding of corporate IT projects and their implementation as disciplined and well managed projects. Practically, the course enhances students' abilities to work in business information systems investment projects and enables them to gradually take more responsibility in managing projects.

  Starting level and linkage with other courses

  Student has passed all 1-2 semester compulsory courses. The course Innovation and Project Work must be passed.
  
  In addition, having completed work placement helps participation in the course, due to having some of the knowledge and experience of project work and development process of business information systems.
  
  Students are recommended to participate in the Project Championship competition which is credited as an own course or by letting free to do some of the duties on the course (test and/or groupwork).

  Contents

  The course is accomplished during the periods 1-2 / 4-5 structured by means of five modules+ study project. Moreover, the course is run in terms of three extents of the course, which are small (four modules, restricted number of assignments), medium (five modules, less assigments compared to large one) and standard (large, five+ study project). This solution is due to varying motivation levels by students. The size is correlating the grade which are: 0-2 in small, 0-3 in medium and 0-5 in large option of the course.
  
  
  
  Module 1 – Introduction: Rationale for IT-project failures; Project Lifecycles vs. Systems Development (IT) Life Cycles (incl agile approach); Project management as a platform -overall view on managing projects.
