Overview

Title

Task Tracking (Activity)

Overview

This POGIL activity explores ways to track tasks for a project with many people, and tasks that vary in importance, time, and skill required, and that may depend on each other. The activity focuses less on events that must occur at specific times (e.g. classes, meetings) and more on tasks that can be scheduled with some flexibility. Once you understand concepts, it is easier to learn about specific tools in the future.

Prerequisites
  • Some experience with software development.
  • Some knowledge of development activities & categories (analyze, design, code, test).
Learning
Objectives
After successfully completing this activity, the learner should be able to:
  • Describe the importance of & issues in tracking & managing tasks.
  • Describe the strengths & limitations of task tracking systems, and of their key operations.
  • Use a modern task tracking system to find, update, and create tasks.
Process Skills
Practiced

Information Processing, Critical Thinking, Communication, Teamwork


Background, Directions, Deliverables

See details in the Student version of the POGIL activity.

Notes for Instructors

See details in the Teacher version of the POGIL activity.

Assessment

  • How will the activity be graded?
  • How will learning will be measured? Ideally, there should be a way to measure each of the objectives described above.
  • How will feedback to the student be determined?

This is a classroom POGIL activity, so all teams should complete it in class with correct answers. Thus, the activity is typically not graded, but there might be related quiz or exam questions later.
