Requirements Document

Step one of any successful project is the process of requirements gathering. You have basically already undertaken the process (at least slightly), but formalizing the information that you have received is key. For the first deliverable for your project, you are required to turn in a requirements document which covers everything that we have discussed in class thus far.

For 10 - 15 minutes at the beginning of every class, you will be given the opportunity to ask questions to me about your project. This information will be key in solidifying your requirements.

By the beginning of class on February 11th, each one of you needs to submit a requirements document (via inquire) featuring the requirements that your project should meet. In class on February 11th, we will go over the requirements you have collectively generated an determine the overall requirements of the project.

Note! This part of your project is exempt from the late policy of the course. We need to stay on time, so this part of the project cannot be late.

Your personal submission will be graded on style (how much of the requirements process was covered in your document, etc.) and content (how many of the overall requirements did your document cover? Were they reduced? Did they meet the specification requirements?). Each part will be worth 45% of your final grade.


By the beginning of class on February 16th, you collectively need to submit a job designation sheet to inquire. This sheet should dictate which students are responsible for certain portions of the requirements defined on February 11th
