CST 438 - Week 4

This week we had quite a bit of reading and videos to cover for our assignments. It was interesting to go through and see others research about what were some of the most common reasons for failures in a project. The disasters that can result from misunderstandings and miscommunication are quite apparent and the emphasis for the need to clarify and comprehend each other when working with others was glaring. It was also interesting to see just how important the creation of requirements are in the beginning, and through the lifespan, of a project. Miscommunication, unclear requirements or a lack of all the necessary stakeholders can doom a project to failure even before production can start. This week we had a group project consisting of creating diagrams for our upcoming project. It was nice to work with everyone and hammer out a schedule to meet and work on tasks.
