IS 376 Information Systems Project
Summary
This course will give you some 'real-world' experience in developing a fairly large software project in a team environment. We will go through all the major phases of the Software Development Life Cycle
(SDLC), and in addition to delivering a working deployed application on-time you will also deliver all the associated documentation (Project Plan, Requirements Document, Design Document, Test Plan
and Procedures and Deployment Plan).
- All students will be assigned to a team--there will be no individual projects.
- Each person is responsible for the ENTIRE project. What particular contribution each member makes is up to the group.
- You may be required to research, and absorb, technical material on your own. For example, this might require that you learn a new programming language, install software on your home computer without guidance from the instructor, or that your group purchase books, at your own expense, to help you with your tasks.

Evaluations are a way for students to provide valuable feedback regarding their instructor and the course. Detailed feedback will enable the instructor to continuously tailor teaching methods and course
content to meet the learning goals of the course and the academic needs of the students. They are a requirement of the course and are key to continue to provide you with the highest quality of teaching. The
evaluations are anonymous; the instructor and administration do not track who entered what responses. A program is used to check if the student completed the evaluations, but the evaluation is completely
separate from the student’s identity. Since 100% participation is our goal, students are sent periodic reminders over three weeks. Students do not receive reminders once they complete the evaluation.
Students complete the evaluation online in CampusConnect.
